Gossip Girl Fashion Quiz: "The Magnificent Archibalds"

A couple really loose ends, and big plots, got resolved in this Turkey Day episode of Gossip Girl. Whew! While I love the drama, sometimes it can be exhausting and I get antsy for new fireworks. Mainly, Jenny has reconciled with her father while Nate's father surrenders to the law. Not all is a good result, but most are feeling relief knowing they can move on. Blair continues to be a bit of a brat still struggling to accept the new man, her mom's man, in her life. Serena almost gets herself into another relationship quagmire and saves herself — she's learned from her mistakes. There was lots of feel good ambiance and festive fashions, enough to get me excited for a real Thanksgiving next week.

Get the rest of tonight's Gossip Girl outfits via CelebStyle.com.

Gossip Style: Lily van der Woodsen

The fact that she's more of a Gossip Woman than a Gossip Girl doesn't stop Lily van der Woodsen from looking just as put together as her daughter.

The fact that she's more of a Gossip Woman than a Gossip Girl doesn't stop Lily van der Woodsen from looking just as put together as her daughter. In fact, the brown dress from Hugo Boss and her Brunello Cucinelli trench together represent one of the best looks of the episode. Shop near-identical alternatives from See by Chloe and Burberry.

As Jenny gets more design time under her belt, she upgrades her wardrobe accordingly. In this particular scene, Jenny rocks a plaid dress from Dolce and Gabbana, but the Cheap Monday option from Urban Outfitters is just as chic. Get that and her exact Nine West boots for a fabulous, and affordable, Jenny look.

It's a good thing that Blair is turned around in this photo so you get to see the intricate, backless detail of her forest green dress designed by Alexandra Vidal. The pleated bib front is just as cute, as are the Jimmy Choos she chooses. In a later scene, Blair wears a Sretsis coat dress (similar to the cape featured here) over this look. Shop it all now.

If you have a Super Tween in your life, you know how hard it is to shop for her. She's ultra picky and disappointing her means major attitude, cue the rolling of the eyes. The key to pleasing the tween is to get her something colorful and sparkly, something none of her friends have. These Betsey Johnson Sequined Bangles ($35 each) she can show off in style.

Who ever thought fishbones could be sexy? Giuseppe Zanotti, that's who. Check out these Giuseppe Zanotti Fishbone Sandals ($995). Kim Cattrall wore these in the Sex and the City movie, and I can see why. The sharp jeweled bones are quite sexy. Talk to me people. Are these heels finger-lickin' good?

This ensemble is quite a dynamic change from what Serena wears to school earlier in the episode. For her more dressed-up look, Serena pairs a Porter Grey top (get the next best thing from See by Chloe) with a mustard-colored skirt and accessorizes with a necklace by Stephen Dweck. All this and a pair of Boutique 9 pumps. Lookin' good, Serena.

Attack of the LBD, The Sequel

I normally hate sequels, but how can you hate when it features a much-loved fashion star, the LBD? The first time around was not enough. More ladies of glamour appeared at events in the classic LBD. But really, what is a classic LBD? These dresses, from designers like Yves Saint Laurent, Jolibe, Dolce & Gabbana, and Alberta Ferretti, are anything but classic. Call it an oxymoron, but the LBD stays strong.
