Monday Night Hairball
By Natalie Hormilla Tuesday, Nov 4, 2008 / 9:46 AM
Maybe it’s because I’ve just returned from a long weekend in the country, or maybe it’s because I’m particularly eagle-eyed when it comes to hair, but did anyone else notice last night’s prime time hair switch?
First, I watched Blair Waldorf help save a young girl from 1 Oak sporting a side braid more reminiscent of Lauren Conrad’s cool-California girl style than her usual UES stiff. And that was funny and fine.
But then I noticed Lauren Conrad sporting a black headband (and was that a bow on it? Tilted to the side?) more reminiscent of Blair Waldorf’s uppity signature look, which always makes me think of Shannon Doherty in Heathers.
An intentional Monday night hair swap? Or an East Coast / West Coast hip-hair rivalry?
You know we doubt it’s either, but it’s just so fun to say shit like that.

Jenny also had a braid in her hair!
i was thinking this last night while watching gossip girl!
i think it looked cute on blair though :)
I completely get the blair style and the heathers reference, they wore bright coloured tights in that film aswel. Obviously GG’s stylist is a fan.
lauren watches GG too, so im guessing thats where the inspiration came from.
blairs 2nd hairstyle bugged me soo much though. i hate when theres just one side loose and the other nice and pretty.
