The more I see of Leighton Meester on the red carpet, the more I like her. Sort of in the same way that I like Mariah Carey – I think she might be completely insane, and I respect that. Leighton is younger, so her insanity is not as advanced or robust as MiMi’s, but give her some time, I don’t think she’ll disappoint us. She has already started to cultivate a bizarre little singing career/side project thingy, complete with a weird, kitschy video that didn’t appear to [...]

Leighton Meester is quite the young actress/singer/trendsetter. Isn’t she? Whether she is playing Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl, working on her album or is simply spotted out and about, she always looks really amazing.
Leighton was spotted just a little while ago on the red carpet of the opening night of Klutch Nightclub hosted by JustJared.com in Miami Beach, Florida. At first glance, I wasn’t sure it was Leighton, but without a doubt it is. She looks so sophisticated in her Christopher Kane cut-out dress and super foxy Yves Saint [...]

Leave it to Leighton Meester and Blake Lively to look fabulous on the Gossip Girl set carrying beautiful bags that have completely stumped me and quite a few of the lovely ladies on the Purse Forum. I find solace only in the fact that both Leighton and Blake are wearing Uggs, proof that they have normal human needs of comfort, unlike their characters on the show who gallop around the city in four-inch heels on a daily basis.
But even with the Uggs, the whole clan looks utterly glam. Of course, [...]

I think we’ve seen more Valentino bags worn by the characters of Gossip Girl this year than basically any other designer. Taylor Momsen carried one to the Halloween party, Hilary Duff wore one when she first met Dan, and Blake Lively had one on her arm when she met KC, her eventual boss. Not only that, but an entire plot point in last week’s episode centered around Leighton Meester striking up a friendship with a call girl named Brandeis just because she saw her carrying a Valentino bag [...]

Ok, so, “my” may not technically be the correct word. Since, ya know, I don’t really have one of the Louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse Leopard Shawl. But in my head, I own all of them, in every color, and I’m simply loaning them out to all the people that want to wear one. Obviously, Leighon Meester asked nicely and I was happy to oblige. I am, after all, a big Gossip Girl fan.
I cannot, however, attest to where she found her Fendi Peekaboo Satchel – I [...]

People, I am almost speechless; this look is amazing. Leighton Meester certainly knows how to pull of the casual cool look like none other. She’s pictured here on the set of Gossip Girl in the Chinatown section of NYC. As soon as I came across these images I knew I had to snatch them up.
This is one of my favorite looks I’ve seen Leighton wear. From top to bottom, I can’t find a single thing wrong. I love the black sweater, form fitting jeans, black high heeled boots and [...]

I love Leighton Meester. Love! I love that she’s a brunette, I love that she’s not fake tanned within an inch of her life, I love that she did that song with Cobra Starship, and I love that she wears things that are more avant garde than 90% of starlets her age. I think she always looks fabulous, even when her outfit is a little out there.
Her outfit here is a bit safe for her normal aesthetic, but she looks absolutely young and adorable – if only [...]

I think we’ve seen Leighton Meester with more Proenza Schouler PS1 Satchels than we’ve seen on all the rest of Young Hollywood combined. And she has great taste – the bag is widely regarded by editors and fashionistas as super stylish and a tailored, elegant choice. Her suede version fits in well with her slightly hipster style, which she’s obviously sporting here.
On a different note, does anyone know who that is that she’s with? Last I heard, she was dating Sebastian Stan, who’s currently playing Carter Baizen on [...]

How many of you are tuned into Gossip Girl now that the new season has just started? Well, you better believe I was watching the season opener this week. And luckily, since we have been able to bring you images of the cast while filming was going on, I sat there and was as interested in the plot line as I was with identifying what the cast was wearing.
Leighton Meester is spotted here carrying a ridiculously gorgeous red Mulberry bag. While I am still on the fence concerning how [...]

Oh, to be young and beautiful and on a hit show. Not only does it finance a fabulous lifestyle in one of the most exciting cities in the world, but it gets you all the good bags early. The Yves Saint Laurent Roady Hobo was just officially launched yesterday, but we caught Leighton Meester carrying it on the set of Gossip Girl earlier this week.
It’s hard to see the bag in these photos, but the red leather looks so soft and smooshy that I mistakenly thought the bag [...]

Identifying the bags on Gossip Girl isn’t usually all that hard, for two reason: first, a lot of the bags they use are made by designers that we cover heavily on PurseBlog, and if they’ve hit the market yet, or have any brand signatures on them, it’s not hard to figure out who made them. Second, if the first thing isn’t true about a particular bag, usually the internet fashion community dissects the outfits in their paparazzi shots so carefully and thoroughly that a bit of smart Googling will [...]
