Do you love Blair Waldorf's style? This Gossip Girl star is known for her perfectly matched and bon ton looks. The following guide will tell you how to look like them.
Steps
Step 1. Don't worry if you don't have eyes and brown hair like Blair:
the important thing is to fine-tune the right look to resemble them.
Part 1 of 4: Hair
Step 1. Carry them loose
Blair has medium length brown hair that is voluminous and shiny, characterized by soft and neat waves. Sometimes, however, it smoothes or curls them. You can easily recreate all of these looks - just use a curling iron, straightener or curlers. However, don't overdo it and apply a heat protector before styling them. If you have naturally wavy hair, you won't have to do much. Just apply a polishing serum (and smoothing if you want to straighten them) after drying, or simply use a suitable shampoo and conditioner. Anyway, washing your hair is only the first step to combing it like Blair's: you will have to do at least a small intervention (if they are similar) or completely transform them.
Step 2. Bring hair accessories
Blair loves headbands, and she has many different types. Get several and show them off! If you can't buy them, replace them with colored ribbons. Large or small, this accessory is indispensable.
Only wear headbands if you want to recreate the style Blair had in high school. If you prefer the university one, don't wear them
Part 2 of 4: Look and Style
Step 1. Try to take care of your health by eating foods that are good for you and reducing gluttony:
reserve them for special occasions. You can also do physical activity to tone your body. Blair has slender arms and legs, a flat stomach; in a few weeks, you too can be like this. Go to the gym or work out at home (you will find workouts on the internet or in women's magazines), but make sure you stay consistent and follow them, otherwise they won't do you any good. You can also try yoga, gymnastics, aerobics or any other sport of your interest.
In the first books of the Gossip Girl series (and also in the first season of the show), Blair suffers from bulimia. It is an eating disorder, and obviously it should not be imitated in this. If you have problems with food, ask a doctor or psychologist for help
Step 2. Dress well
Blair has good taste, his style is very refined and classy. She likes dresses, shirts and bows. Whatever outfit you create, it always adds a pop of color in one way or another. We've seen her pairing orange stockings with a dark blue school uniform, a bright red coat with a black dress, etc. Also, she hardly wears denim. Her wardrobe is full of skirts, dresses and stockings, never jeans.
- Socks are key to Blair, so get them in various colors. She loves wearing them in the winter months and, sometimes, even in the summer or when she just feels like it.
- You could also add some accessories that stand out (pearl earrings, jewels with bows, diamonds, scarves, brooches). What matters is making harmonious choices. Blair wears designer clothes because her family is wealthy and her mother is a designer. Try to buy clothes that don't look cheap; of course they can actually be, but no one should be aware of it.
- Pajamas. Blair sleeps in a slip and slip, cute pajamas or a top paired with shorts.
Step 3. Try to always look pretty and classy
Blair has perfect style, whether at school, at a party or at home. She never looks scruffy, not even in her pajamas.
Try to buy key pieces. In the wardrobe of the adult Blair, blazers, large bags, tube skirts and simple blouses, but also clothes that enhance her body cannot be missing
Part 3 of 4: Makeup
Step 1. Put on light makeup
Blair uses very neutral and clean make-up. Use beige and brown eyeshadows, mascara, blush and a red or pink lipstick. To correct dark circles and cover annoying imperfections, apply a good concealer. Make sure your brows are tidy, unobtrusive and natural. On special occasions, highlight your eyes or lips. Blair never exaggerates. In particular, she always has flawless lips, so stock up on lip glosses and conditioners.
Part 4 of 4: Social Life
Step 1. Try to have a close group of friends
Blair has few, but good ones, including a best friend: the popular Serena van der Woodsen. She loves going to parties.
Blair is Queen B (in the original version she is called Queen B, which means "queen bee", but it is also a play on words, because in fact Blair's nickname is B) of the most fashionable group of Constance Billard. Together with your best friend, you can create a small group of girls and become their leader (but beware of fights: Serena and Blair always fight for the title). Establish a specific place to reunite with them (in the show they do it on the steps of the MET)
Step 2. Try to have good manners
Blair always behaves politely towards adults; remember to thank and use "please", or smile politely at the waiters.
Advice
- One of Blair's main characteristics is personality. Everything she wears she wears with grace and confidence. Don't let anyone insult you and get away with it. Impose yourself!
- Blair has perfect posture. Don't be afraid to stand up straight and look straight ahead showing an elegant bearing.
- Blair often wears heels, but if you decide to wear them too, make sure you can walk with ease. Nothing is less graceful than a girl who walks awkwardly with a pair of Manolo 12 heels on her feet.
- Blair always carries a nice bag with him. If possible, try to buy a branded one, otherwise you can choose a model similar to those made by famous designers. The important thing is to avoid blatantly fake copies.
- If you can't completely change your wardrobe, just start small, with poise for example. Blair never hunches, either when sitting or walking; always keep your chin slightly raised while walking; when you sit down, stand straight.
Warnings
- You can imitate it, but avoid shamelessly copying it.
- You don't have to drink alcohol just because Blair does.
- Remember that Gossip Girl is a show, so Blair Waldorf doesn't exist. If you admire the actress who plays her, Leighton Meester, find out about her beauty tips or habits.
- Try to always remain yourself: this article offers only an idea to improve yourself.
- To conclude, Blair is a balanced person, but he doesn't always make good decisions, and you shouldn't copy them. In fact, you risk getting yourself into trouble, such as ending up in jail or getting a bad reputation. Gossip Girl is fiction, not real life. The events that follow were written to keep the audience glued to the screen.
