Serena VanDerwoodsen hair inspo!!

So here it is, finally, THE FIRST POST OF THE MINI GOSSIP GIRL SERIES........

SERENA'S HAIR!!

Okay, who isn't obsessed with Blake Lively, let's be honest here. Now, an even more important question.... WHO ISN'T IN LOVE WITH HER HAIR?

Literally I'm so in love with her hair it's almost embarrassing. I think I love it so much because i'm a brunette who just chopped off all her locks.

The events and parties Serena goes to in Gossip Girl are high class. And let me just say her hair ALWAYS LOOKS IT. I'm obsessed with the braids she wears in the show.

Thank god for my friend Sadie, because she has the long, blond, beautiful hair just like Blake! Here's the pics!

Now, I am no hairdresser and literally can't do anything to my hair. So what i did was i went on pinterest (follow me! tab above!) and looked at some pictures of Blake's hair. It's not exactly like hers, because I added some things i like (messiness!!!!). 

The first thing i did was put Sadie's hair in a high ponytail. I then took a strand from the ponytail and wrapped it around the ponytail holder to hide the elastic and give the top some texture.  

 I then went down about two inches in the pony tail and took another strand and wrapped it around the hair. I just used bobby pins to secure the hair. I pulled the hair between the two "knots" I made by wrapping so it looked fuller and messy.

And then i just braided the rest and tied it with a tiny elastic! 

It took me two tries to get this the way i wanted, and i must say i'm so proud of the way it turned out! 

And really, after trying a few times it wasn't as hard! 

I hope you guys liked this post! More Gossip Girl inspo is coming so stay tuned!
