NEW YORK — “Gossip Girl” Episode 6 of Season 2, “New Haven Can Wait,” is all about Blair Waldorf and Serena van der Woodsen – specifically about their competitiveness that drives them apart almost destroying their friendship. It culminates in a big cat-fight between Blair and Serena. When it seems that nothing can salvage their friendship, Blair and Serena somehow manage to reconcile. No wonder, GG still has a few episodes to air.

These events take place at Yale University, but in real life the production company used Columbia University as backdrop while filming this episode.

So, let’s see how the girls stay competitive fashion-wise. XOXO

The above is from Blair Waldorf’s dream. The outfit is the mystery, but something else comes to mind. Who said this: “Ooh, baby, you are so talented! And they are so DUMB!” Obviously, Serena van der Woodsen dominates this scene in her Ralph Laurentiered white dress. Then Blair wakes up wearing an electric blue ruffled halter and sees a photo of Serena on Page Six of “New York Post.” Serena is wearing Diane von Furstenberg Iseletti vest, Nine West IceBlue boots, Rich & Skinny jeans,  Gemma Redux SAS necklace and Celine bag.

Of course Lindsay was the star of the evening and shone with her fabulous Dolce & Gabbana limited edition bag of which only 9 other copies exist.
