It's almost time for two highly-anticipated fall events: a new season of Gossip Girl, and a new school year to wear your favorite fashions. What happens when you mashup styles worn by a true bad girl, Georgina Sparks and the Queen Bee who looks innocent but is really the fierce strike of lightening hiding in the storm clouds?

Queen Bee Blair Waldorf
Leighton Meester is a true picture of a good school girl, in her plaid. Blair Waldorf loves her tartan coats and plaid skirts. She completes further creates the illusion of being the good schoolgirl with her colorful and youthful tights. Always feminine in a skirt or dress, Blair Waldorf is the true Queen Bee, with a sting.

She further softens her look with girlish embellishments on her clothing, including puffy sleeves or long sailor collars. She adds contrasting color bows to shirts and adorns her perfect coif with headbands. Sometimes she reveals her power as the Queen Bee and wears power red, but she does it with style and modesty, with a pair of red tights or cropped jacket.

Really Bad Girl Georgina Sparks
If Queen Bee Blair Waldorf is the wolf in sheep's clothing then Georgina Sparks, as portrayed by Gossip Girl guest star Michelle Trachtenberg is a wolf all the way. Not afraid to wear bold black peep toe boots with buckles or a pair of painted on pants, Georgina Sparks embraces her dark side through fashion.

You won't catch Georgina Sparks in plaids or skirts, her style needs to wear the pants, to let everyone know who's boss. Think about Olivia Newton-John in Grease. What did she do when she wanted to be taken seriously? She traded in her layered skirt for a pair of liquid black pants, similar to those worn by Georgina Sparks.

Play the Queen Bee, and dress the part of the good girl, keeping your gossipy stinger hidden, or show the world your more jaded side, with a touch of bad girl style from Georgina Sparks' wardrobe.
