Just saw Serena, Chuck, Nate, Eric, Lily, Bart, and Queen B at the Palace for Lily and Barts’s wedding!

Queen B was wearing a hot pink floral dress and a hot pink headband and flats.

No Jenny or Dan - significant?

Even stranger: Lily wasn’t wearing a wedding dress, but Bart was in his tux. Weird wedding.

Thanks for the spot - you might like this, too, though we don’t know how much of a surprise it is…

We’re getting a little Gossip Girl crazy around here.

The sun is out, we’re eating Sour Skittles, and there are only 5 days left until “The Greatest Show of Our Time” returns, (we’re obsessed with NY Mag’s running commentary and look forward to it almost as much as we look forward to the show itself).

Fred Flare’s thrilled too.

Their “What’s New” section boasts a Canvas Jenny Tote and a Blair baby doll dress. The tote’s kind of eh but the Blair dress comes complete with a bib, buttons and ruffle - she’d totally wear it with white tights and patent pumps.

We searched for a Chuck grandpa cardigan or a brightly colored Serena scarf but no luck yet. We’ll be checking back for more inspired titles.

(Editor’s Note: Please enjoy this shot of Chuck at SubMercer courtesy of photog extraordinare Faran. Britt’s to the RIGHT, but she didn’t think her beauty could hold up next to Mr. Bass. Check out that ripped jersey and exposed dog tags, ladies!)

Gossip Girl premieres in the UK tomorrow night, and so we have some words of wisdom for our British counterparts in preparation:

1. Stock up on head accessories (think bejeweled headbands, scarves, big barrettes) now before everybody else decides they’re Blair and shows up to work glittering with Stacey Lapidus holding back last season’s bangs.

2. Stock up at La Perla or even with Elle MacPherson’s lingerie. You will seriously reconsider striped underwear after Blair gets down to a vintage slip in “Victor, Victrola.”

3. Get ready for teenage school kids embellishing their outfits with ribbon trim and a hot glue gun - thanks Blair!

4. Do not ever begin a conversation with, “Can you believe Serena slept with Nate?!” or something like that, lest your desk mate bends a stapler around your monitor. All Friday morning conversation must begin with, “Hey, did you see Gossip Girl last night?” and continue from there.

Ok, now we promise to shut the hell up about GG until it actually returns. Well, if we don’t think of anything else about it, that is.
