Leighton Meester [1] will forever be known as Blair Waldorf in our minds [2]. While it's been almost a decade since Gossip Girl [3] ended, Blair's polished style [4] is still alive and well. The "Heartstrings" singer recently decided to ditch her brown locks for a new blond hairdo [5] that reminded us of her character's onscreen bestie, Serena van der Woodsen.
Even though Leighton switched things up with her hair, she still stayed true to her character's iconic style [6]. While leaving NYC's Nexxus Salon [7], Leighton showed off her preppy look, wearing a chunky knitted sweater with a pair of blue and yellow plaid pants [8]. She made her look edgier by styling her pants with round sunglasses and leather boots. Read on to see her full look ahead and buy similar Blair-inspired slacks.
