OLSEN TWINS What to wear: Oversized everything – sunglasses, maxi skirt, boyfriend coat – and overload of accessories. Beauty tips: “I just woke up” hair and drugged-eye smoky makeup. Bonus points: an empty Starbucks cup in one hand.
CHUCK & BLAIR What to wear: For Blair – need we explain the universal Upper East princess style? Think colored tights, mary janes, headbands and girly blouses. For Chuck – whatever you see on display at the Ralph Lauren store, go for it. In other words, fitted blazer + bow tie + pocket square = preppy and charming. Beauty tips: Blair’s perfectly calculated curls and Chuck’s 2:8 side part. Use hair wax shamelessly. Bonus point: Have your friends tag along as Nate and Serena, and you’ve got the whole gang taking over the house in style.
