Glamour and Glitz, Serena and Nate…

Now this, this is what Gossip Girl is all about. Opulence in the form of crazy beading, jewels, fancy capelets that have no real use, and more beading. Or in the case of Chace Crawford, it’s about wearing a pinstriped pant, a dotted jacket, and a brown fedora all at once and still looking incredibly hot.

Of course, opulence in Gossip Girl often takes a bit of a different appearance, but this is what’s lurking inside those newfangled designer outfits. Tonight a new episode airs, featuring a 1920s-themed Halloween party, which really shows us how our favorite characters would dress had they lived in the 1920s. Little Jenny, aka Taylor Momsen, is wearing a zoot suit! And you thought they couldn’t get much more over-the-top, right?

Here we have Blake Lively as Serena in an itty-bitty beaded dress and capelet carrying a gold beaded that I’m not having much luck identifying, but I’m almost not disappointed in myself because the overall image is so completely, outrageously, ridiculously excessive and I do love it. I really do. Now if you excuse me, I have to run and buy a Halloween costume, because this idea is brilliant.
