Her character may be new to town, but that hasn't stopped Raina Thorpe (played by Tika Sumpter) from causing trouble. Her character is not only the VP of an international business but daddy's little girl with a wild side.
She keeps her look "all-business with a twist", with classic silhouettes and confident dresses as her staple. As a powerful woman, she's often on the event circuit, in a new designer dress every night.
Make an classic impression like Raina would in this Donna Ricco silver stretch satin sheath dress ($138, www.shop.nordstrom.com)

Blair Waldorf's character (played by Leighton Meester) is the perfect best friend... until she decides she wants what you have. She's also a fashion lover who often takes fun risks with her conservative chic look.
Blair's one for mixing patterns and textures and rocks patterned tights, because black would be just too boring.
Don't be afraid to mix patterns to get Blair Waldorf's stylish look. Start with this patterned blouse by the Gap.

Then mix in a subtly patterned skirt, like this one from Forever 21 ($6.99, www.forever21.com)
Lastly, finish with patterned tights ($20, americanapparel.net)
Men love her and women want to be her. Serena Van Der Woodsen's character (played by Blake Lively) is known for her sex appeal, causing men to drop like flies at her feet with a single smile and toss of her hair.
She plays up her banging bod and slim frame by wearing body-baring dresses that leave little to the imagination.
