This is a follow up to Part One (check it out if you haven't) of inspired by and to finish the characters of Gossip Girl there is Vanessa and Jenny left.  I hope you enjoyed part one and the start of this new topic, look for further inspired by to come, I hope your as excited as I am. 

As I stated in my previous post Gossip Girl is one of the most popular shows for fashion and that's why I decided to start this new topic off with characters that eliminate just that. 

Getting to the last two characters on our inspired by list we have Vanessa and Jenny and I'm sure you'll love their looks for less because their styles are completely different. 

Get the Looks:

                                                              Vanessa Abrams

• Bohemian: Vanessa is known for rocking the boho look, I personally think in one of the best ways. Her style consists of bright colors, gladiator shoes (flats & heels), excessive amounts of jewelry and big tote bags.
• Trendy: Vanessa also shows off her trendy side, she wear's alot of what's in now, like animal prints and leggings. She switches between these styles quite often and mixes and matches pieces.
• Girly: We see a softer side of Vanessa when she dresses up to attend all the parties with Dan and crowd. We can catch her in many dresses both classic style as well elegant gowns.

Get Her Look:

1.  Bohemian Chic



3.  Girly

• Jewelry:  Vanessa is known as wearing some of my favorite pieces.  She is seen wearing different accessories that really resemble her personality on the show.  You can see her in the most glamorous of diamonds (faux of course), big bangles and necklaces and tons of rings. 
• Handbags:  When it comes to Vanessa we typically see her carrying around totes and shoulder bags, as a college student she is thinking practical as well as stylish.  Whatever she chooses it always works with her outfits.
• Shoes:  We see Vanessa wear anything from boots, booties, peep-toe, and flats.  She is very diverse in her choices but I personally think she looks best in boots, they seem more natural on her. 

What I like most above Vanessa's style is that she seems to be the most universal in her style, for whatever occasion occurs she seems to always pick the right outfits to wear.  I'm most jealous of how she pulls off the Bohemian look, maybe it's her dark features and bone structure that make it work, but by far my favorite, do you guys have any favorite styles on Vanessa?               

• Edgy:  We all know that Jenny loves to wear edgy outfits, she loves the color black and that's perfect for pulling this style together.  I'm sure everyone relates this color with edgy if it's paired with spiked shoes and a studded bag.
• Fashion Forward:  I like to think Jenny thinks outside of the box and likes to test the water, so I would consider some of the things she wears as fashion forward (come on she was once the designer of the bunch) so she has to know what's the "it" items.
• School Girl Rock:  I chose this category based on the fact that she is still in high school, and unlike when Blair was the Queen of the Throne and dressed preppy, Jenny used her own style and made it a rocker prep look, what do you think?

2.  Fashion Forward

• Jewelry:  Jenny's jewelry is all about layering, she loves layering necklaces and bracelets.  These are her go to accessories to pump up her outfits and they're always a little edgy and fashionable.
• Handbags:  Whenever we see Jenny she seems to be carrying totes this is always a fashion statement with her and we love to see what she's carrying. 
• Shoes:  Jenny loves her shoes, they're always tall and she loves booties, boots, gladiator and so much more, always exciting to see what she's wearing each week.

I know when it comes to Jenny some of her outfits can seem dark, and that's probably why I chose alot of black, but as you can tell from the pictures she loves this color.  I threw in some colors I think she would wear as a fashion forward piece, tell me if you agree?
