Off-the-Set Style: Amanda Setton

You may not immediately recognize the name Amanda Setton, but you surely know her as Queen B’s Main Minion, the gossip-loving, always-texting Constance aristocrat, Penelope Shafai. 

Penelope may not always be front-and-center on-screen, but there’s no denying the girl has some serious style worth stalking.

The girls of Gossip Girl have been turning the Upper East Side into their own personal catwalk for the past few years, and their off-the-set styles are no different of a story.

Leighton’s look: Thakoon sweater, Proenza Schouler bag, Pierre Hardy lace-up booties
For less: J.Crew sweater, Marc by Marc Jacobs bag, Boutique 9 pumps

Leighton’s look:  Proenza Schouler sequin top and skirt

Leighton’s look: Zadig & Voltaire top (Leighton loves this line!), 3.1 phillip lim edie bow bag, Jimmy Choo biker boots, 
pants and coat from ASOS

Whose style do you identify more with? Blair’s preppy glam or the Leighton’s laid-back street chic?

Off-the-Set Style: Blake Lively

Even though we must endure five long weeks without Gossip Girl, that doesn’t mean we have to halt our weekly fashion digests, does it? Until our favorite Upper East Siders return to our TV sets on January 16, get your GG fix with me in reviewing our favorite stars’ ensembles — both behind the scenes and off the set.

Let’s start by style-stalking the lovely Serena, i.e. Blake Lively:

Blake is wearing Theoroda and Callum wedges, Victoria Beckham zip jeans and a quilted Chanel bag.
Get her look for less with a wide-brimmed hat from Forever 21, H&M leather trousers and ASOS wedges (they’re on sale!).

Cozy up in these shearling boots from Ugg Australia (bottom), as seen on Blake between takes on the Gossip Girl set. That top pair is from Madewell, I need ‘em!
Leaving a Barnes & Noble in NYC, just another stylish Sunday! … in a leather Burberry coat, Opening Ceremony dress, Louboutin pumps and a D&G bag. Get her look for less with a J. Crew trench, cashmere Burberry scarf, Aldo shoes and a KDNY bag.  
Spotted: Blake smiling on the set… in a sequined Gryphon sweater, Mike & Chris jacket and J. Brand coated leggings.
