Serena van der Woodsen Fashion

Pause. Stop everything. Rewind. Did you catch it?

In this week’s “They Shoot Humphreys, Don’t They?” episode of Gossip Girl, Serena traversed the streets of the Upper East Side in this Nanette Lepore Party Girl Coat while Nate and Chuck plotted to repair her damaged friendship with Blair.

Why is Serena so in demand? Just check out the intricate details on her regal knit coat. Pleated banding. Assorted metal beads. Lightly padded shoulders and ruffle trim at the placket. What’s not to love?

We appreciate how Serena kept the focus on the coat by layering it over a short black skirt and using jewelry to highlight its best features. Which reminds us - in case you were wondering, Serena’s earrings are M.C.L. by Matthew Campbell Laurenza (and, no, we couldn’t find them available anywhere online).

Leave it to the queen of both domestic and international drama to put together one very dramatic wedding look in the “Rufus Getting Married” episode of Gossip Girl. While Serena’s flowing frock captures our imagination, this M.C.L. by Matthew Campbell Laurenza Cuff  that she wears on her left wrist captures our hearts. 

Featuring round-cut amethyst and sapphire stones set in tantalizing turquoise enamel, we can see this cuff becoming that special occasion piece that you’ll want to wear at every joyous ceremony to come.

We hit the jackpot on Serena’s ravishing winter look from this season of Gossip Girl. That’s right, we found just about every piece from Serena’s warm and racy getup in the above picture. But we’re not going to give everything away all at once. This sensational ensemble deserves the time and attention of a series of posts, so we decided that we’ll detail each piece in parts… starting with that regal Twenty8Twelve Truman Coat.

A wool coat featuring button-flap hip pockets and a funnel collar, perhaps the most intriguing elements of this delectable find are its asymmetrical hem and an 8-button closure. Wear it open like Serena over a refined dress and leggings to exude classy city girl vibes. Or button it up from waist to neck over acid wash jeans and chic peep toes to channel old school military meets runway.

Oh Serena. Who does Blair think she’s kidding trying to befriend a new “it” girl to make you jealous? Her childish attempts are futile when you look this hot.

We found your Vena Cava Synthesizer Dress from next week’s “The Grandfather: Part II” episode of Gossip Girl, and while we don’t quite know what this new “it” girl looks like yet, we think your election party style is going to be hard to be beat.  A sleeveless teal dress featuring a V ring at the V neck with pleating where it counts? All we have to say is how very divine.

 The look of the night? Serena in her Darjeeling Silk Dress by Nanette Lepore.

Traditionally, Nanette Lepore is a designer that we associate with the ladies of Wisteria Lane or that gorgeous ghost whisperer herself, Melinda Gordon. But, we have to say, Serena does a great job of putting her own spin on this lux brand by bringing us an intricate sunburst motif in the “How To Succeed in Bassness” episode of Gossip Girl.

Complete with a V-neckline, deep keyhole and more shimmering beads than you can shake a stick at, this day-to-night piece shines on its own and only needs opaque tights and simple jewelry to finish the look. Perfection.

Spoiler alert! Serena shows she means business in Monday night’s “Enough About Eve” episode of Gossip Girl. She will be gambling for Carter’s life and (not so surprisingly) will be taking a chance in the fashion department wearing this Alexander Wang Asymmetric Jersey Dress. 

Accompanied by the always dapper Nate Archibald, we think Serena chooses the perfect accessories to style this bold look. And her risk-taking pays off as all the pieces come together to gracefully exude confidence and class.

Remember how we brought you Serena’s gorgeous Alexandria Necklace by Slane & Slane from last week’s “Dan De Fleurette” episode of Gossip Girl? Well, the lovers of Serena’s business savvy look from that episode will also appreciate this hot find.

And what is it we found exactly? Behold Serena’s incredibly sexy arm companion, the Valentino Spotlight Bag.

Why are we in love? A tantalizing textured finish. Two durable handles. A designer name that has never let us down. In our opinion, it’s one very mobile masterpiece. Need we say more?
