Blake Lively in Theodora & Callum

Roselle — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 08:00:00 +0000

Let’s add one more celeb to the growing list of Theodora & Callum fans – Blake Lively. The Gossip Girl hottie was spotted sporting a fabulously printed number around her neck while out and about in Cambridge (Massachusetts) last month. She used the scarf to cap off a biker chic look, and it put a surprisingly fresh twist to her style:

Blake’s scarf is called the Goa Scarf in Gold. It’s a pretty long scarf (about 78″ long) and can even be used as a beach cover-up should you wish to do so. Right now, this particular variant is sold out online, but if you are willing to wait, TheTrendBoutique is offering it for pre-order (ships end January):

Also, if you don’t mind grabbing it in another color, say Navy, there’s one available at Neiman Marcus, though it retails at a higher USD175:

Blake Lively and Leighton Meester: Blue and Pink for Gossip Girl

Roselle — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 08:09:35 +0000

Gossip Girls leading ladies, Blake Lively and Leighton Meester, were once again spotted filming scenes for the show last week. It was hard not to keep on staring at the two when both sported colorful scarves to go with their cozy cold season outfits. Blake had on an intense blue number on top of her all-black ensemble while Leighton was wrapped in a bright pink scarf whilst fashioning an equally striking green coat:

What do you think of the ensembles? Better yet, what can you say about those colorful scarves?

Well, I personally think it’s a breath of fresh air to see scarves in colors other than the usual black, grey, or brown this season. And let’s face it, wearing a pop of color around your neck is the BEST way to brighten up your face, your look, and basically your day.

So how about it people? How about some bright and colorful cozy scarves for you today? Here are a couple from MARC by Marc and RLX Ralph Lauren. You can find these at Shopbop:

Blake Lively: Cute in Burberry

Roselle — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 10:57:02 +0000

It has been quite a while since we’ve written anything about Blake Lively (well, not really a while; like maybe weeks). Since our last post, the blond beauty has not only managed to find a new boyfriend, but she has also acquired a cute little dog. She was even spotted cuddling it while on her way to Ryan Reynolds’ apartment (yes ladies, the two are dating) in Boston last week (November 13).

And while everyone else was probably talking about “her going to his apartment”, we were too busy admiring Blake’s cute outfit. She had on a simple tee and tweed shorts which she sassed up with tights, knee boots, and a trench. But the cute toppers that finished her look were the ones that made her super chic – a ribboned hat and a patterned scarf:

What do you think of Blake’s latest cold weather style everyone?

Really cute, yes? Now let’s move on to that scarf. If you’re thinking it really looks familiar, that’s because it’s a Burberry. And although it is quite the classic, up close it offers more than just that. Blake’s scarf is this Burberry Python Pleated Mega Check Scarf and what makes it unique is its textured material:

Burberry Python Pleated Mega Check Scarf, USD450 at SAKS

If you find the waffle-like appearance of this scarf more than just mildly interesting and you’re willing to shell out money for a Burberry, then feel free to shop for the piece at SAKS. Grabbing one will cost you a hefty USD450 but judging from the fact that you’re ready to buy, that information probably wouldn’t matter.

Now if you want to copy Blake’s style here, you can easily do so by using what’s in your closet (tee, shorts, and brown or camel knee high boots), and making sure you have the key pieces ready. Apart from the scarf, you’ll need colored (brown or burgundy) tights, a trench, and a cute hat; and if you have a little pup, bring it along too:

Hit or Miss? Blake Lively in Stella McCartney

Roselle — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 06:25:52 +0000

We hear Blake Lively went on a shopping binge in NYC a couple of weeks back. The young blond reportedly spent over US$7000 worth of designer goods at the EditNewYork boutique, snagging a couple of Proenzas and several Marants on display. And while Blake’s extravagant shopping session kept a lot of tongues wagging, we on the other hand, were too busy noticing the bulky scarf she wore while she engaged in the retail therapy. Blake used a chunky pink knitted scarf over her fabulous leather on leather outfit. It was hard not to notice the topper because it didn’t exactly go with her whole look. Check out Blake below:

Well, what can you say about the style? Do you think she should have worn a different scarf, one best suited for fall? Or is the juxtaposition a perfect match? True, the odd combination of textures looks quite intriguing – matte to shiny and rough to smooth, but the real question is, is it a solid style hit or a miss?

In case you’re curious, Blake’s heavy scarf is by Stella McCartney – a piece made of alpaca silk wool mix that is obviously more suitable for winter. If you want it, you can find it at MyTheresa. Be careful though, because grabbing one will cost you a hefty USD465. If you’re not that picky, you can actually SAVE by purchasing this cable knit infinity scarf from Fossil, which you can find at Zappos:

Fossil Annabelle Solid Infinity Scarf with Lurex in Dusty Rose, USD58 at Zappos

Not a bad substitute indeed; and it will only cost you US$58! As for Blake, although she did look undeniably good in that Stella McCartney, perhaps a less overwhelming scarf would have made her look even better – such as this piece from Juicy Couture (also available at Zappos):

Blake Lively’s Serena Van Der Woodsen Piles It Together

Roselle — Fri, 24 Dec 2010 08:00:35 +0000

Looks like Blake Lively doesn’t just pile her scarves off screen, she also does it on screen. Well, her alter ego at least. Here’s a picture of Blake shooting a scene for Gossip Girl.

Now check out that outfit. Serena (Blake) isn’t just wearing one scarf; she’s wearing two – a dove grey and a dark mossy green. And in case you haven’t noticed, she’s not just piling the scarves, she’s piling the cardis too – one in leather and the other (underneath) in knit. Hmmm…good thing she’s tall and slender enough to handle all that bulk. Bulkiness aside though, I have to admit, she looks good (per usual, of course)

Can you carry such a layered outfit? If you think you can, here’s how you can make the look originally yours:

Preppy Layering

Scarves: Wildfox Prep School Scarf in Black and Cream, US$58 each / Cardigans: Alice and Olivia Aidan Cascade Cardigan with Leather in Black, US$346.50 (from US$495); Joie Cleopatra B Sleeveless Cardi in Heather Oat, US$208.60 (from US$298) / Jeans: Black Denim Super Stretch Skinny in Trojen, US$75 / Top: Torn by Ronny Kobo French Stripes Tank, US$88 / Boots: ROSEGOLD Genie Lace Up Bootie in Taupe, US4$185

By the way, in case you’re curious, the coats are from Catherine Malandrino, and they are quite expensive. If you want one, visit NeimanMarcus. The blue bag is from VBH. Read this post if you want to know more about it. As for her scarves, well, those are a bit of a mystery…but we think our alternatives above are just as good

Merry Christmas ladies!

Blake Lively: Layering Burberry for Blue Valentine

Roselle — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 09:35:43 +0000

Gossip Girl hottie Blake Lively was spotted at the Blue Valentine premiere held in New York the other day. The blond beauty was looking dapper in shades of gray, with her metallic grey coat and two-tone black and plaid scarf commanding most of the attention. Take a look:

What do you think of Blake’s outfit?

Quite fashionable, yah? Well, I guess if you’re wearing head to toe designer, you should be. Allow me to enumerate WHO are on her: quilted bag – Chanel, tweed boots – Chanel, tunic – Isabel Marant, metallic coat – Burberry, and guess what? I found out (after doing my research) that Blake is not just wearing one piece of scarf but two – a black Burberry Cashmere and a plaid Burberry scarf. Wow, not bad.

How about we take a cue from Blake here? If ever you get bored with your scarves, pile them together. It’s one way to give you and your scarves a whole new look. We highly recommend it. You can use two or three layers, if the fabrics aren’t too thick. A couple of great layering combinations we could think of:

4 More Ways to Wear the Scarf as a Hair/Head Accessory

Roselle — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 21:07:34 +0000

Last week, I wrote about Amy Winehouse and how she wears the scarf as a headband. Here are other ways you can wear it on your head, as seen on these hot celebrities:

As a headband with a pony or with your hair down; Let the ends hang loose along with your hair.

For this you will need a longer but thinner (narrower, about 6 to 12 inches) scarf.

Blake Lively as Serena Van Der Woodsen

Lacey Chabert

As a good ol’ bandanna tied around and over the head and forehead. If you want the ends to hang loose, get a long scarf. Otherwise, you can stick with the square bandanna scarf.

Nicole Richie

Beyonce Knowles

As a scarf bun as seen on JLo. Simply put the scarf over your head, twist it along with your hair (like you’re creating a bun), than tuck the ends under.

For this one, use a wider scarf (about 18 inches wide) with some stretch in it.

Jennifer Lopez

Lucille Ball style. This one is very similar to the way Amy Winehouse wore it, except that the scarf is not twisted and the hair is up.

Kylie Minogue

For long scarves, you can try these:

Missoni Zigzag Scarf, on sale for US$161; Ashley Ashoff Pop Champagne Scarf, US$225; Missoni Striped Scarf, on sale for US$139;

If you want JLo’s scarf bun look, you can try these stretchable jersey scarves:

American Retro Snake Scarf, on sale for US$41; Tilo Jersey Knit Scarf, US$80; American Retro Dylan Scarf, on sale for US$58
