Are We Ready For A “Gossip Girl” Reboot?


There is such a thing as having something coming back to you too soon, right? It’s not that I’m not FOR this, but it’s that I don’t feel like I’m yearning for a Gossip Girl reboot yet. Last year, when I was working like crazy, I would constantly have Gossip Girl on in the background. It was the first time that I had truly watched every single episode without skipping one. The series ended in 2012, but that doesn’t feel like it was that long ago for me.

So the question is, are we even ready for a reboot? The CW is currently hosting two reboots right now: Charmed and Roswell, New Mexico. I can confirm that the new Roswell is nowhere near as good as the original. Charmed – I haven’t even considered watching.

It’s unclear right now if the reboot will mean a fresh new cast or if our favorites will be returning. Both Blake Lively and Leighton Meester have made comments in the last couple of years about whether or not this could be possible and it skews positive.

In an interview with Variety back in 2017, Lively had this to say about a reunion:

“It sort of all depends. Would I do seven years of the show? No, because it’s hard work and I’ve got my babies, and I don’t want to be away from them that much. But I’ve just learned in life you never say never. I’m looking to do something that I haven’t done yet, not something that I did. But would I do that? Who knows — if it was good, if it made sense.”

What do we all think? I would love a reboot, but only if the original cast could return. I might be a little bit too old to still be watching shows about high school students.

2018 Met Gala Red Carpet

Amal Clooney in Richard Quinn with George by her side

Before I left the office tonight, my friend and coworker, Courtney, remarked that tonight’s Met Gala was the equivalent of a Super Bowl to anyone else. She wasn’t wrong! I put in the extra hours of work this weekend so that I could free up my Monday evening to work on crafting this post. Before I came home, I also went out for a glass of wine with a friend so that I could a) appreciate every look for the piece of art that is and b) to let my true opinions for every outfit shine through! Throughout the day in all my meetings, I was closely watching the coverage seeing bits and pieces here and there, but never spoiling it all for myself until I was able to digest it when I got home. I can’t imagine a better photograph to kick start this post.

This year’s 2018 exhibition was “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.”

2017 Met Gala Red Carpet

I wanted so badly to get home early Monday evening so that I could have this post ready in time for Tuesday morning as a recap, but of course, we stayed at work a little bit later that night. The good thing about writing this post now though is that I feel like I’m not under a time crunch and I can really take my time with it.

Bee Shaffer is not exactly “in” the fashion world, but her mother is Anna Wintour and every year she continues to stun. This was one of my favorite looks from the evening. Here she is wearing Alexander McQueen with her fiance Francesco Carrozzini. #powercouple

2016 Met Gala Red Carpet

Alicia Vikander in Louis Vuitton

This is always one of our favorite events of the year and all today, I wanted to just continue refreshing Fashionista so that I could see the live coverage of all of the outfits. Instead, we worked. And every 45 minutes, we ended up refreshing, but then the days get ahead of us so now we’re playing catch up now. Here’s what we did see – we didn’t like Taylor’s outfit. Not one bit. We hated Selena’s boots. We weren’t surprised by Nicki Minaj and we loved Chloe Moretz and Bee Shaffer, but what else is new?! Now, let’s get to the coverage – it’s pretty much the post we’ve been waiting for all year long. This year’s theme was Manus x Machina. This also kind of hits home for us because well… you know, tech!

The Sisterhood Exists In Real Life

Hands down – this had to be one of the sweetest things I’ve read all week. Growing up, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants was one of my favorite series. I couldn’t always exactly relate to all of the situations that happened in the books or even felt like I resonated with one character, but there were a series of moments that I maybe identified with spread out between the four characters. After the series was turned into a movie and then a sequel, I was ecstatic. The actresses selected were such a good fit, but sometimes that’s all it is – just acting, right? It’s sometimes rare for people that are cast in a movie to stay friends afterwards, but not these 4.

It was revealed this week that Blake Lively made Amber Tamblyn, Alexis Bledel, and America Ferrera the godmothers of her newborn baby. Awwww!

Versace x H&M

Last night Versace and H&M debuted their new collaborative collection together which featured Prince and Nicki Minaj as the evening’s performers and appearances by a number of celebrities. These are really my only favorite looks from the collection because it just isn’t my style – even if I could afford it. Below the cut are just some great looks by attendees.
