Steal Her Style: Blake Lively

Blake Lively surprised the world few days ago by marrying her boyfriend, actor Ryan Reynolds. While the details of the wedding are still some what secret, we believe that Gossip Girl’s star wouldn’t settle for anything less than a fabulous wedding.

That is why we are going to take a walk thought her personal style, which, just like Blake herself, has a little or nothing to do with everyone’s favorite IT girl, Serena Van Der Woodsen. While Blake is a true star on the red carpet, her every day outfits are wearable, cozy and effortlessly cool.

A former face of Chanel’s handbags, Anna Wintour’s favorite blonde and Lagerfeld’s muse is now the face of Italian fashion house Gucci. With all those connections in the fashion world, no wonder Blake has a highly developed sense of personal style. She enjoys wearing pricey pieces, while maintaining a low key look, at least when she is out and about in New York City.

But, when there is a formal occasion, Blake can steal the spotlight and transform into confident, super sexy young woman, who is not afraid to show some skin. And there is no reason she should hide her body: it is perfect the way it is. Apart from super long and toned legs, Blair’s signature is a long, blonde hair, which makes her look like a perfect all American girl.

Red or Dead

For an afternoon event, Blake showed her fans that classic suits are not outdated, especially if you stick to colors that flatter your skin tone. With a little black top, a pair of strappy sandals and only a pair of pearl stud earrings, you can get an outfit that is dressy enough for a special dinner or something even more formal. Blake is a big fan of high heels and natural make up, but she also likes to have sun kissed tan form the bottle.

Shades of Grey

If you ever wondered how to wear leather pants and look sophisticated, Mrs. Reynolds knows the answer. This semi formal outfit is not relying on colors, but on fabrics. Except leather, Blake is wearing a tweed boyfriend blazer in grey, a plain cotton white shirt and a pair of interesting pumps. Accessorizes are what makes this outfit so cool: an oversized cuff bracelet and an oversized clutch are statement pieces, so it is safe to say that the beauty is in the details.

California Dreaming

Mixing prints is always a dare, but it can be very rewarding. For a hot summer day Blake wore printed shorts, tank top with an application and a printed hobo bag. This laid back look was completed with cross earrings, Ray Ban sunglasses and a pair of biker boots made for warm weather. Summer boots are a huge trend during past few seasons, so it is no wonder Blake choose to wear them. She is a regular fashionista!

New Yorker at Heart

With a pair of powerful Fendi heels and a mini skirt that stops the traffic, we are sure Blake didn’t have to wait long for a cab. The whole outfit is beautifully color coordinated and rather expensive as well. While she is not being Serena, Blake likes to curl up her hair in a careless way. In order to complete this great outfit she chose Stella McCartney’s scarf in baby pink. With a draped leather jacket and a little Chanel 2.55 bag, she is ready to take over Manhattan.

Paris, Je T’aime

For a night out with Karl Lagerfeld, Blake broke an important fashion rule – she wore a white top and a black, lace bra. But, since the whole look is simply divine, it is safe to say that breaking fashion rules from time to time is exciting and refreshing. With a high wasted satin shorts and a white blouse, matched with a sequin jacket, Blake took over Paris in a heart beat. Those Christian Louboutin Volnay Sandals sure helped, because they are magical.

Simply Blake

Just like any other 20-something girl, Blake doesn’t want to be dressed up all the time. High heels and expensive jewelry were replaced with the most gorgeous accessory of all – a puppy. Blake wore a pair of casual skinny jeans, which she often does when she is off duty, with a pair of flat boots in dark brown and a matching bag. Although, a smile is optional, Blake seems like a carefree gal, who simply enjoys being herself.

Cover Girl

For Nylon Magazine’s editorial “The Talk of The Town”, Blake became a rebellious but stunning girl, far less posh than Serena Van Der Woodsen, yet equally sexy. It is nice to see Blake as a punk princess, with a plaid shirt, leather jacket and a hot yellow pleated skirt. I have to admit that I adore this hair style, all messy but sexy and her make up which is flawless. These statement rings are pretty great, they just add up to the whole bad girl look, giving it an edgier feeling.

Warm Up

We already discussed how to wear all black the right way, but here is a great example how to wear it during cold, late fall days. With a pair of black skinny jeans, a leather jacket, a sweater and a pair of ankle boots, all in black, you can use fall’s favorite color, brown, for a handbag and put on a dark printed scarf. You don’t have to use too much imagination for a chic casual outfit, you just need to know how to shop and stick to your style.

Like a Cupcake

Go for gold! With a cupcake in her hands, pleated gold skirt and a white blouse with a matching brooch in gold, Blake looks like a living Barbie doll. While this is not exactly a casual look, it is very simple and a great choice for modest, yet daring night out. The bravest thing about this outfit is not a clothing item, but a choice of nail polish. Unexpected dramatic green nails made this lady like outfit very youthful and daring.

Be Sexy

In case you haven’t notice already, Blake adores Giuseppe Zanotti’s and Christian Louboutin’s shoes. For this occasion she chose two tone peep toe sandals with jewels and an amazing dress by Marios Schwab. Since the dress is currently sold out, you can make a similar look with a lace top and a silk skirt in deep green.

Accessorize an outfit with a box clutch and a pair of pastel green earrings. You don’t need tones of make up, just a nice foundation, mascara and a lipstick in pink nude. This is an outfit that is appropriate for every age, as long as you have body for it. The length and the cuts are timeless, so it is a great choice for a wedding or celebration of your anniversary.
