How to do Preppy Glam

Gossip Girl is a guilty pleasure of mine, and I can’t fault the fashion of those stroppy socialites – polished and preppy, with a glamorous Upper East Side edge.

If you love the signature styles of Serena and Blair, look no further than these fashion hotspots.

For college style, well cut blazers are a wardrobe goldmine – you can wear them with everything. Dorothy Perkins (http://www.dorothyperkins.co.uk/) do some fantastic ones, especially their grey ponti preppy blazer for £40, which screams prep school chic.
Riding boots are one of those fashion godsends that combine style and comfort, and a good pair will never go out of style. Serena teams hers with skinny jeans, and you can too with this
fabulous pull on pair from Boden (http://www.boden.co.uk/). At £110 they are pricey, but will last forever!

Finally, add a hint of colour to your outfit like Blair, with a check skirt from the new contemporary line NW3 at Hobbs (http://www.hobbs.co.uk/). I love this site for its elegant, on-trend pieces rooted in classic fashion.

Just pop on a headscarf and the Gossip Girl look is yours!
