Blake Lively style: A guide to the star’s flawless fashion moments
by FASHION StaffSee all of Blake Lively’s best style moments »
What is there to say about Blake Lively? Well, what is there not to say? With a recently launched lifestyle site, Preserve, a gorgeous (and Canadian) husband, having co-founded Chime for Change and facing Gucci’s Premiere fragrance, is there anything she hasn’t done? Ever since she hit the silver screen with her Cali girl charm in Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants, we’ve been tracking the star’s style. And how could we not—the 27-year-old bombshell is on a roll in the fashion world and though we may have fallen for her back in her Serena van der Woodsen days on Gossip Girl, she has proven time after time again that she definitely knows how to dress to impress.
Preview our Blake Lively cover story »
After making her red carpet debut back in 2005 in a perfectly ought pink and blue top and low rise jeans, she upped the ante in ‘07 and ‘08, making her way into dresses by Victoria Beckham and Chanel and turning heads in Versace in 2009 for that year’s Emmys and the Met Gala. It was then that we started to notice, this girl could do no wrong. 2010 saw some of our favourite looks by the actress/do-gooder including a feathered black crochet Chanel dress for the Vogue Fashion Fund Awards and her iridescent purple sleeveless Chanel dress she wore to the re-opening of Chanel’s SoHo boutique.
Since marrying Ryan Reynolds, the actress has been prone to dressing up in ultra-elegant ensembles. The duo stunned on this year’s Met Gala red carpet, both wearing Gucci— Ryan in a tux and Blake in a shimmering rose gold gown. And she made everyone swoon in a corseted iridescent dress by Chanel at the Mr. Turner premiere at Cannes. We’re not going to lie though, we’ll never grow tired of her mini dresses like the burgundy Marios Schwab one she wore to Reynolds’ premiere of The Croods in 2013 and this year’s ‘60s-inspired mustard yellow Gucci number for her Chime for Change event.
Oh, and did we mention Lively’s a self-styler? Yeah—she definitely knows what’s up.
