- Who knew being a Gossip Girl character was so messy.
Am I giving you Jenny Humphrey party girl? (laughs)
(upbeat music)
Hey, I'm Vivian.
- Hey everyone, my name is Yiwa.
- And today, oh my God!
We are recreating the most iconic looks
from one of my favorite TV shows, Gossip Girl!
- I've been obsessed with Gossip Girl for the past 10 years.
It's kind of embarrassing.
- Gossip Girl was my show.
- I really do like Vanessa.
She seems the most logical and isn't too drama.
- I stan Blair Waldorf.
I wore this in honor of Blair Waldorf.
- I feel like I have a combination of styles
from Blair, Vanessa, and Serena.
- I'm so ready for this. It's time to go shopping.
- We are in my closet.
I have a couple ideas already of what could work.
This jacket screams Vanessa.
- I think a lot of pieces in my closet
are very much Blair Waldorf-esque.
I wanna do a Jenny Humphrey look
because it's not my style whatsoever.
I'm also going to do a Chuck Bass look.
- Oh my gosh. This is a vest that's also very Serena.
And some really cute boots that are preppy, but chic.
And you could stomp around New York in.
But the rest we will find online.
- For Blair, I'm definitely shopping online.
Everything else for Chuck and for Jenny,
I can easily find that at a thrift store.
- I am in love with Vanessa's look.
Fortunately, I don't have to buy anything for her look.
For Blair, all I need to get is a headband.
I just don't have any of those.
This is also my favorite look from Serena.
All I need to get is the tie and the skirt.
Amazon here I come.
- So I'm looking at this skirt.
I don't know how I feel about the whole suspender thing.
Part of me likes it.
Part of me, is like, I don't know if Blair
would wear anything with any sort of suspender-y.
But I feel like it's cute and I feel
like the color of the skirt is really close
to the colors that she's wearing in the outfit.
- Women's plaid skirt.
Ooh, okay, so this is already promising
because it has so many colors and so many different sizes.
We love to see it.
And I would want to pick a color that matches the red scarf
that I'm gonna put around my neck with a black jacket,
so I'm not trying to do any pinks or yellows.
I feel like that might clash with green,
so I might stick with a darker color.
Probably a gray or a navy black.
Ooh, okay, so this top, this lilac is so pretty.
I think the main thing is that it's a silky shirt,
satin shirt and it has the bow at the top.
That's super important.
Okay, well, switching over to purses.
I do like this one.
So she has kind of like a little,
it's not a tote bag, it's kind of a little satchel thing.
But I do want a specifically yellow bag
'cause I love the color yellow
and I really like that the yellow pops in her outfit.
- For Blair, we still have to get a tie, actually.
Honestly, one of these, like a black,
I could reuse it for Blair and Serena's look.
This looks perfect. It's very Blair.
I could totally see her wearing any of these.
- I do feel like I picked a really good selection
of items for Blair, but I need to get out of here
'cause I need to go to the thrift store.
I need to find all my items for Chuck and for Jenny.
Let's go.
This is giving me Chuck vibes!
- So the package is here! I'm so excited!
Oh my gosh, these are so Blair. These are perfect!
And next is the plaid skirt that we got.
Okay, this looks like school uniform perfection.
- So this is everything I got from the thrift store.
Everything for Chuck is right here.
And then everything for Jenny Humphrey is right here.
We are building the Jenny Humphrey look.
I have the shirt on.
I have the tights on with a little holster, garter thing.
I also need to put on the wig!
- [Yiwa] Okay, outfit ideas for Serena van der Woodsen.
Plaid, skirt, leather jacket, it's black.
And like a cute little vest and a tie.
- This is the hair, this is the makeup.
I'm not gonna do much else to my face.
I'm just gonna put on my shoes, put on my jacket,
put on shades and get on with my day
as Vivi-Jeveny Humphrey.
- Okay, guys, what do we think?
Serena van der Woodsen?
This is the vest that I had, my sister's tie.
The skirt I got on Amazon.
- Hey, real talk.
This is a cool outfit for New York.
LA in the summertime.
This is not an LA in the summertime look.
It is hot. (laughs)
- I don't know how I feel about wearing this outside.
I feel like people might think I'm going
to Comic Con or something.
I look like an anime school girl, but it's hot.
- This is my full on Jenny Humphrey look.
This is not my normal style.
I definitely don't casually wear stuff like this.
These shorts, look at these shorts!
These shorts are so comfortable and they're so cute!
- As for Vanessa Abrams, we've got
this little ensemble going on.
These are like bellbottom jeans.
I don't know if that's too hippy for Vanessa.
These are gonna used for Vanessa's outfit.
It has like a rustic orange, super boho-chic.
- I have this YSL pin for my best friend, Dan,
these vintage gold earrings,
this Daniel Wellington watch cause Chuck Bass
would definitely have a watch on.
And I just have to choose between these two ties.
I'm not yet which one looks better.
I also don't know how to tie a tie.
So I'm gonna figure that out in the car
and hopefully this will be great.
- This is the full outfit.
Pop of color, very Vanessa, but it's very subtle
because a lot of her clothing is earth tone,
hence why I'm choosing a leather vest,
a snakeskin purse and just some distressed jeans
and orange boots.
She's not over the top, like the Upper East-siders.
And she's the complete opposite of super preppy.
- I've never styled menswear, so the fact
that I was able to put this together
based off Chuck Bass's look, I'm really proud of myself.
And then because Gossip Girl is all
about the rich and famous and affluent,
this is the most affluent bag I own.
Louis Vuitton!
I gotta hold my stuff in something.
Very different vibe for me, but it's good.
- [Yiwa] There's a lot of layering happening here,
different patterns, but it all works,
it's all the same color scheme for Blair.
She definitely likes her plaids and her navy blues.
I don't know if I wanna add this scarf yet.
Maybe it's too many patterns.
But these are definitely Blair.
- So I was trying to choose between these two hats.
This is the one that I ordered online.
It's a lot of sequins and it's not like the patterned,
which is what she had.
She had the printed hat.
This is more of a print, but it's not the best color combo.
You know what? I don't hate it.
I think it goes close enough to the skirt and to the purse.
I'm gonna put it over the other hat so it has that shape,
but this color combo.
- We're gonna see if my high school blazer still fits me.
I feel like I'm being transported 10 years back.
I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing,
but I definitely look cuter than 10 years ago,
so there's, there's that.
- This whole look is so freaking cute.
I think I did a great job. I love it!
I'm here for it.
And this is a look I would wear again.
I would wear this whole thing.
- So here's my Blair outfit.
She did have an outer coat.
We're gonna pretend this is New York weather
because out here in LA, it's hot.
With my clutch, very preppy.
I kinda like this outfit better than Serena's.
It seems more put together.
Dorota, are you insane? You're using our everyday china.
Cyrus will think we're just common upper middle-class.
(broadcast signal)
- Hi, Megan! - Hi!
- [Vivian] Okay, did you ever watch Gossip Girl?
- [Megan] I did.
- [Vivian] Okay, so who, which character am I giving you?
- Serena. (record scratches)
- [Vivian] Okay, you know what, I can see some Serena.
I was attempting Blair.
- [Megan] But you did a great job.
- [Vivian] Thank you, I really tried.
- Yeah you did! (both laugh)
I love it!
- As you can tell, Vanessa's is probably my favorite
just because my own personal style is a lot like hers.
Although, I do have to admit wearing Blair's
was a lot of fun.
- I'm glad I was able to do something different.
I would have never thought of wearing a suit,
so the Chuck look was so much fun for me.
XOXO, Gossip Girl.
