DIY Halloween Costumes: Serena and Blair from Gossip Girl

With Halloween 5 days away and some of us still scrambling to get our costumes together, I'm going to make it easy for you. Everyones favorite TV show, Gossip Girl has easy characters to recreate because of their strong personalities and iconic looks. 
It girl, Serena Van Der Woodsen can be done with a plaid skirt, white knee socks, a button up, a loose and messy tie, and a casual boho jacket thrown over the outfit completed with booties or heels. Serena's hair is often tousled and messy and her makeup is simple and fresh faced. 
Blair Waldorf is a bit more put together than Serena is. Her hair is usually pulled away from her face with a preppy headband and is done up in clean curls. Her lips and cheeks are blushed and her eyes are soft. Her uniform is always pressed and clean, her Tory Burch ballet flats match her knee socks perfectly. Instead of a messy tie, Blair usually finishes off her uniform with a neat tie or scarf. Blair's favorite way to top off the outfit is with a peacoat, a classic and preppy look. 
So grab your best friend and your old plaid uniform skirt from middle school and you can easily throw together this cute costume.
