i think blake as serena is perfect but leighton is too pretty for blair

When I read the books I imagined them totally different. More like Chloe models

Every single casting is perfect , like Nate and chuck casted so perfectly

you should have seen Leighton with blonde hair...

To me Blake as Serena is not the best choice, she talks weirdly and is not really natural with her acting. There could have been a better hot blonde for that role. However Leighton as Blair is outstanding casting ❤

I feel like it's the opposite for me. Blairs outfits seemed fussy and overdone. I liked the effortless,boho sexy feel of serenas outfits. She Inspired alot of my style.

If you visit an ivy school and observe the actual old money and not just tiktok's academia misrepresentation of it, this sort of gaudy style is nonexistent. They dress very casually with high quality items

Totally. Serena was always showing full cleavage too. Even at Yale! 😵‍💫

how can you say that old world class is "rare" nowadays. I see a lot of people in my place exude that old world charm.

@@DONTcareAnymore000 okay so just because you see it often doesn’t mean she does 😂 I definitely don’t either

Or Max & Caroline from 2 Broke Girls 😊

Kinda reminds me of Velma Kelly and Roxie Hart from Chicago too -(though it’s not a perfect comparison lol)-

Considering that Jennifer is a natural and Courtney a classic (not quite sure about this one), what you said makes makes total sense.

Leighton is actually a blonde but she dyed it for the role, I think.

Monica is the hot one and I wish people would accept it as the truth

Mine is: I'm not a stop along the way! I'm a destination!

An icon, a legend, *the* moment. 👑💅🏻

That’s so true

That's what I thought too... I mean she is pretty curvy too, has a waist and hips (not sure if her boobs are natural though), so I was a bit suprised to see her typed as a flamboyant natural....

To massacre something implies a negative connotation btw, as if she made everything look terrible is what your comment suggests.

@@MeHoyMinoy-cv3ps it’s like saying someone “killed” a performance to mean they did a great job, it may not be proper but also not incorrect

@@starryxblue no, to massacre is always used in a negative way. It’s not the same as ‘they killed it’. To say they ‘massacred it’ would imply they did an atrocious job.

blair does not have any class you guys are so delusional it’s funny

yesss

Yesss!!! If i tried copying Serena's style i would look homeless, not effortless

Yeeees

@@hashtagmate 🤣 I understand this struggle!

Yessssssss

I watched GG when it came out and everyone was obsessed with Serena’ s hair. Nobody considered it messy, but slightly undone in a cool way. I am still obsessed

Same! Blair is beautiful but I hated the way they dressed her with the over the top colors and prints-too much all at once. She can pull off vivid colors and cute prints but putting them on her all at once makes it look like the clothes are wearing HER instead of her wearing the clothes

girl what everyone was obsessed with Serena's hair. It was done that way intentionally.

I’m genuinely curious lmao do you guys acc see blair as a good person cause wtf

Blair doesn’t mature she’s still a snobby bully by the end of the show she couldn’t steal the spotlight from Serena even if she tried 🤣🤣🤣

blair is NOT mature by the end of the show... she's becomes more and more childish and needy

same here! This was awesome!

For me Blair at W Magazine was her worst era lol I had the impression the writers got lost on her character at that point

@@annasens6718 but you are talking about the writing, not the style. The style is the main point here.

I think when Salma and Penelope have their “femme fatale” looks, there is still something in their underlying essence that stays true to their kibble types. Salma still looks curvy and feminine while Penelope is slightly “edgier”. In fact, there are rumours that director Pedro Almodovar requested Cruz to wear a butt pad for some of her roles which makes sense because Almodovar has casted Cruz for a wide range characters from innocent characters to sultry characters

@@EbonyPenmarks, I agree, I can tell the difference in their appereance and vybe. Still, I would love to see a comparison video. I think it would be interesting. :D

Thank you so much ☺️

Thank you! This is great feedback ☺️

@Ellie-Jean Royden | Body & Style you're welcome dear 💛💛

ooooh that would be AWESOME! Def Ariana💜

100% agree

Ellie-Jean PLEEEASE🥺

Emma Watson

or just more gamine content in general! 😍

Good point. I dont know how she normally looks. Would have to google. But I as a dark autumn myself I started also to think that Im not sure if she is one. 🤔 But we still love Ellie!

I think she’s a bright spring.

She is not naturally blonde, people mistake her previous role to original hair. If you have seen her child picture/ school picture she has been always brunette

Omg I was totally about to comment this! Especially an analysis of elena’s style vs katherine’s.

@@varshinipillai750 great minds think alike 😁

It will not change you from an apple to an hourglass. Or a rectangle to an hourglass or an apple to a pear. Of course if you lose weight to a certain extent you will look better and carry yourself better and clothes will hang better, but you cannot manufacture curves where curves do not naturally exist. You can fake it and camouflage it with clothing and accessories (I.e. Belts) to balance out your proportions and give the illusion... However if you are straight up and down without hips or a defined waist, that will fundamentally not change regardless of weight loss. If you face narrow shoulders and very wide hips, no amount of weight change will alter your shoulder width

What she means is about proportions. For example, I have larger hips and a smaller waist proportionally, so at whatever weight I am enhancing the waist will usually look better for me. I fluctuated more or less 10 kg, I gained weight but my proportions are more or less the same, even though I am now 2+ sizes up.Women who, for example, have larger shoulders keep the larger shoulder at any weight, so of course while the fat percentage changes, your overall bone structure doesn't.

seconding the commentor above me when i was reading up on Kibbe, a lot of type explanations actually included information about the way different types tend to carry fat and muscle, which i've found to be accurate e.g. personally as an SD, my type is a lot more obvious in photos where i was fat, and photos where i had a lot more of both fat and muscle, and more difficult to identify in photos where i was thin with less of both - but ultimately? i'm still tall/big either way, my 'thin' body still carries fat on my limbs in a way that shows before my bones do, my shoulders/width are larger than a shorter person but aren't significant enough relative to my height to give me an FN frame, my curves break pure Dramatic lines it was difficult to wrap my head around because dressing SD when my body is carrying a lot more fat is SO much easier, but waist emphasis is important at every weight for me even when my natural waist isn't as obvious; open necklines or higher dramatic necklines are flattering at every weight for me; small frilly details are out of proportion; 'comfy' and 'undone' doesn't look effortless on me, 'tidy' and 'polished' ironically looks more effortless; i'm able to wear statement jewellery without being overpowered, delicate jewellery is out of synch for me; statement styles in general are easy for me to carry off; shiny or luxurious looking fabrics are more harmonious for me and 'natural'/scruffy/relaxed fabrics are incongruent, etc. my outfits *are* different at different weights because matching my body's exact vibe at that point in time looks different, but specific items of clothing aren't specific Types, *it's a lot more abstract than that* there are periods of my life where i was fatter and fought dressing SD, but that was the result of fatphobia, i was told to hide my body and avoid so much of what actually looks harmonious for an SD, i was being taught to dress like an FN, but that's all conditioned changes, not inherent yes i was also physically moving differently because my body was a different shape, and my Dramatic and Soft energies were coming through in different forms and to different degrees, but the foundation was still SD &even when my weight temporarily dropped dangerously low due to medical reasons? i didn't magically become a Dramatic even with *very* visible bones and a gaunt face and dangerously low body fat, i looked sick because i was obviously very visibly sick so no outfit looked as harmonious, but all the foundational SD principles still applied in practice (i knew about this system at the time so actively experimented with the little energy i had lmao) mine's probably easier to prove because my height limits me to 3 types though

@@deilen961 as a fellow soft dramatic this was so interesting and helpful to read. Thank you for your thorough comment!

It's about how and where you carry your weight but even more so about bone structure, and they don't change with weight gain so that's how kibbe body type stays the same 😊

Yes! I'm getting tired of most folks just mentioning Marilyn Monroe.

Blair was likeable??😂

@@t1m513 Blair’s the best. Serena became annoying in season 3 and stayed that way.

@@tabathavillafane740 😳interesting haha Blair was insufferable to me (well I thought that was the point of her character) and enjoyed making ppls lives hell, she ‘changed’ for her prince but really that was the most Blair thing ever and just more manipulation lol

@@t1m513 Personally I liked how Blair was a bitch but never failed to own up to it. She told people that she could and would ruin their lives, it wasn't something she hid from others. She needed to work really hard to build up and maintain her reputation/influence , because people were always out to bring her down. The problem I found with Serena was that the writers tried too hard to make her likable. She was handed things too easily in my opinion, there was never really a situation where she truly struggled and grew as a result. Plus after the first few seasons the plot just became repetitive; usually with Serena in some sort of trouble as a result of her past or her current fling, where in the end either Blair/Nate/Chuck (or all 3) would have to help her rectify the situation.

@@t1m513 I believe she's more likable than Serena because Serena never admits her privilege. It's really exhausting watching some priviliged nepo baby acts like "she's one of us". And most common thing she says for every problem she and her lifestyle caused is "Not my fault." like yeah babe it's your fault.

I feel like Serena and blare are untouchable in different ways. Serena is so effortlessly perfect that u know u can never recreate it and can never be her. You can be blare if u had enough money or enough motivation, but there’s nothing that can achieve Serena’s aura
