Leighton and Olivia Step Out Confidently For Gossip Girl Style

Molly — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 11:30:32 -0800

Leighton Meester posed in a punchy dress with her former costar Nicole Fiscella and Olivia Palermo in NYC last night at the launch party for You Know You Want It: Style-Inspiration-Confidence, a book written by Gossip Girl's costume designer Eric Daman. Leighton supported the man who puts her in so many fabulous clothes, which she was once again showing off on the set yesterday with Ed Westwick and a surprising reappearing costar. She, Olivia, and Nicole all looked fantastic on the red carpet and inside the party, so maybe they learned a thing or two from the book they were out to help promote. We caught up with Eric earlier this week at the ACE Awards, where he shared a little about dressing the show's stars:

On who's most enthusiastic about their wardrobes: "Everyone goes with the flow. Blake has a little more opinions on it, because she's very body-conscious and knows what looks great on her. She's been in front of the cameras long enough to be able to say, 'This would be better if it was a half inch shorter' - which is great. It's a dream as a costume designer to have someone, who's like, 'Lets do this!'"
On dressing the guys: "The guys are pretty into it. The guys just want to look good when it comes down to it, which is pretty easy. Chuck/Ed is really into it - he really likes to look amazing and he has been one of my favorites from day one. To be able to play with menswear in the way that we do and pioneer that men get to dress better, and that it's OK to wear a bow tie and a pink shirt and not be too gay about it."

Penn Calls Dan Humphrey "His Own Worst Enemy"

PopSugar — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 14:30:14 -0800

The Gossip Girl cast got bundled up and took over Manhattan for another day of filming yesterday. On last night's episode we got to see Jenny and Dan each play out their passions in very different ways, while Chuck and Blair worked on issues with their respective parents at home. Serena stuck by her phone as the usual fashion and beauty kept us captivated. At last week's Juicy event Penn Badgley talked about Dan and the upcoming TV death we've been hearing about. Here's more:

On what he doesn't like about Dan: "Dan has a lot going for him but he’s his own worst enemy. And I think I’m frustrated a lot of times with how judgmental he is and how rigid he is in his morals. The guy needs to loosen up. He needs to loosen the eff up. "
On his favorite part of playing Dan: "Oh God, I have to think about that one. Maybe the jeans. He has great jeans."

To see more photos of the cast and hear what Penn said about the funeral on the show, just read more.

On what character dies: "Somebody does die. It’s a person. It’s not an animal. Are there any animals in this show? No, I guess not, so no. I can’t say anything."
On whether he cries at the funeral: "That would be giving away too much."

Although the Gossip Girl death is looming, there's still a lot of fun to be had watching one of our favorite guilty pleasures.

LL and Ashley Help DMB and Julia Stand Up For a Cure

Molly — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 06:00:00 -0700

Some of our favorite small screen actors - and at least one high profile TV guest star - stepped out at Madison Square Garden last night for Dave Matthews Band's concert as part of the Stand Up For A Cure series. Fresh from a day filming Ugly Betty Lindsay Lohan posed on the red carpet before watching Samantha Ronson DJ the pre-show. Julia Roberts introduced the main act to an audience including some of the Gossip Girl kids like Chace Crawford, Jessica Szohr and Nicole Fiscella, as well as the always-endearing Damien Fahey among others. While I imagine big events like this are still bittersweet for the band who recently lost a member, they performed the night away to raise money for lung cancer research.

Mary-Kate Is an Actress Turned Designer Turned Actress

PopSugar — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 11:15:42 -0700

Mary-Kate Olsen, a few gossip girls, and Solange Knowles all got together for a Dazed and Confused magazine party at the Mini Rooftop NYC last night. MK took a break from her boyfriend and her plaid-loving clothes - although looks like Jessica Szohr had that covered. She arrived early to catch MGMT's performance and wasn't afraid to show off a few of her dance moves. With NY Fashion Week kicking off, we imagine the pint-sized designer will be checking out the runways, although we still love to hear that she told PopSugar UK about her renewed passion for acting to turn to as another creative outlet.

PopSugar — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 13:30:48 -0700

Some lovely ladies of Gossip Girl celebrated the upcoming season at a party hosted by Henri Bendel and YSL Beaute in Manhattan last night. The actors were also out to recognize their costume designer, Eric Daman, who got a big smooch from Jessica Szohr. Blake, Penn, Ed, and Chace were MIA, but the rest of the girls represented with lots of fierce posing. Leighton even brought along her rumored boyfriend, Sebastian Stan. While they got super cute with their red carpet kisses, it's only one more week until we get to see who queen bee Blair gets romantic with on season two.

Busy Blake and Leighton Make Time For Gossip

PopSugar — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 11:30:42 -0700

Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, and the other gals of Gossip Girl were back on set yesterday morning in NYC. Despite the early hour and her crazy-looking hairdo, Blake still managed to look gorgeous as she played with her puppy Penny and posed for photos with fans. The show's cast, guys included, has been extra busy lately after their whirlwind trip to LA for last weekend's Teen Choice Awards - though Blake gets extra credit for pulling double duty, promoting Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2. Buzz liked her new film even more than the first Pants movie, so hopefully all Blake's hard work will pay off at the box office.

Gossip Girls, Lipstick Ladies, and Diane Party for Longchamp

Molly — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 10:00:23 -0700

Some lovely ladies beat the NYC heat by slipping into some skimpy clothing for Longchamp's 60th anniversary celebration last night. Despite Josh being in the city filming Fringe, Diane Kruger hit the party solo, showing off her figure in a daring outfit. Speaking of flaunting a rocking body, Leighton Meister poured herself into that LBD and showed off her free-falling bangs posing with costars Jessica Szohr and Nicole Fiscella, while some other Gossip Girl kids were elsewhere in town at the big Dark Knight premiere. Rounding out the TV star set - not to ignore the fabulous Susan Sarandon of course - was Lipstick Jungle's Lindsay Price and Brooke Shields out to fashion party the night away.

PopSugar — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 14:00:12 -0700

Spotted: co-stars and real life friends Leighton Meester and Nicole Fiscella spending time together in downtown NYC looking fashionable and fun. It can be hard to separate fact from fiction with these Gossip Girl stars, since they seem to have a lot in common with their characters. While it's fun to see the girls hanging out in real life, it's no substitute for the juicy drama we get to see on the small screen.

Nicole, MK, and Leighton Have Their Eyes on the Runways

PopSugar — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 09:00:28 -0800

Mary-Kate Olsen and Nicole Richie sat next to each other and chatted while Leighton Meester stood out in a metallic outfit at Proenza yesterday as Fashion Week nears its end. Diane Kruger and Taylor Momsen both hit up the Marchesa show before Taylor changed into a skirt for MCM's VIP party. At Tory Burch, Kanye West continued to take it all in before he's off to Paris Fashion Week where he'll show off the LV shoes he designed. Oscar de la Renta was spotted backstage with Barbara Walters and the young Barbara Bush as Bryant Park swarmed with celebrities. Not all the action was in the tents - newly engaged Rachel Bilson stopped by the Temperley London Store last night but wore gloves to cover any ring. Fab and Bella are right in the action, so don't miss their coverage.

All the Girls Want Is a Piece of the Fashion Action

Molly — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 15:30:10 -0700

Fashion Week keeps trucking along with lots of famous faces in the front row and backstage. Fresh from her Irvine show, Lauren Conrad had Lo Bosworth by her side today for Nanette Lepore, while Rachel Zoe joined Jennifer Lopez to support her recent favorite, Oscar de la Renta. The Gossip Girls went their separate ways - Blake Lively wore the designer joining Heidi Klum at Michael Kors, while Leighton Meester and a surprisingly normal-looking Juliette Lewis went out to see Phillip Lim. On top of her stop at Proenza Schouler on Monday, Mary-Kate Olsen brought along boyfriend Nate Lowman yesterday to check out her pal Benjamin Cho's collection. There are only two more days of fashion fun in NYC before things pick up again in London on Sunday.

Don't forget to check out all the news from the front row, as well as updates from Fab and Bella. To see over 50 photos from the shows, including Mary-Kate Olsen, Agyness Deyn, and Rachel Zoe, just read more.
