I got an email from Melissa this morning that was just too fun to pass up! Apparently, her law firm is having a casual get-together/mixer type function and everyone’s supposed to come dressed up as a (human) movie character of their choice.

Mindy sent in a request for me to put together an outfit somewhat like this one that Leighton Meester (CW’s Gossip Girl) is wearing. You know, if you’re going to knock off someone’s look, you could do a heck of a lot worse than THE Blair Waldorf. So let’s get started.
