1.    Dresses. Blair Waldorf’s style is all about dresses, blazers and skirts. She mostly wears dresses that are designed with bows and ruffles. Dresses, skirts and blazers are in clean lines and pleats. Go for simple but elegant dresses that are above the knees in length. This kind of fashion style reflects the Upper Side East elites-very girly and colorful. You can rarely see Blair in jeans or pants.

Summer is almost here! I know you have plans like going to the beach with friends or get away with your boyfriend or just hang out with friends at the mall or just around the city. And I’m sure summer is one of those seasons you would want to look hot and fabulous. And to look fabulous you should wear dresses. So, have you done your summer dress shopping list? To help you with your list and to give you an idea on what dresses are fashionable for summer, here are chic summer dresses. You will surely want to wear these dresses on your memorable summer 2010.



Garments play an important role in summer not only for making you look fab but also to keep you cool and calm. Since summer is full of hotness and discomfort so expect more sweat during this season. Be wise when you shop for your clothes. The first thing you should consider is make sure that the dress won’t make you feel discomfort and restlessness. So avoid wearing jeans for now or any tight garments. Go for something loose. That’s why dresses are perfect for summer. It makes the circulation of air in the body easier. So it would keep you calm and cool. It is best to look for clothes that are made of cotton. So that when you perspire, it will easily be absorbed by the garment. And the kind of material that you should avoid is that synthetic garment. There is a tendency that synthetics can make you develop foul odor because the clothes will not absorb that sweat and will make you feel sticky.

And oh, don’t forget your sun block.
