Blake Lively of course wore Chanel to the Chanel Bijoux De Diamant 80th Anniversary party in New York last night, a backless silver silk dress that no doubt cost more than my car. It’s a pretty simple dress for couture, really. It almost looks like one I wore to homecoming in 10th grade. Granted, that dress didn’t start out backless — I kinda hulked out of it during a particularly vigorous bout of the Macarena — but I still made it work for me. That’s called “fashion improvisation.”
Make Blake’s looks all your own with this dress from Diane von Furstenburg. Just be careful if you’re planning on doing any late nineties’ dance moves.

Blake Lively always seems to bring the goods — and by goods, I mean cleavage. So it’s nice to see that hasn’t changed now that she’s a married woman. Here she is at a celebration for Chanel Fine Jewelry’s 80th anniversary, and I guess Blake’s probably showing off her ring. To be honest though, my

Logging the long hours for the final season of her hit CW show, Blake Lively got down to business while filming "Gossip Girl" in New York City on Tuesday night (October 2).
The 25-year-old actress looked fashion forward in black tights, ankle boots and a chic maroon jacket while shooting scenes with co-star/former beau, Penn Badgley, and laughing it up with the crew in between takes.
Aside from filming her hit CW show, Blake recently chatted with Marie Claire about all of her favorite tech sources when it comes to iPhone apps and why she loves them.
Miss Lively's smart phone faves are as follows:
Hipstamatic: "This is my most used app! It turns normal photos into art. As a foodie and cook, I especially appreciate the Loftus lens. People can't believe the images are captured from an iPhone. The quality is truly superb."
Martha Stewart Everyday Food: Fresh & Easy Recipes: "Anything Martha does is magic. I use this as a daily dose of inspiration."
iTunes U: "Tunes U is a full education on the go. You can download course content from universities like Yale and Stanford, or art institutions like MoMa. It has everything from French courses to Spanish history. It's incredible to have such vast access to any subject I'm interested in right there in my pocket."
8mm: "This is the moving hipstamatic! This app creates such ambiance and character in any setting. It brings your video back to any era. And the shutter sound and pulsing borders are such great details!"
Quad Camera: "I love this when photographing a meal I've made. It takes a series of photos with one click. You can time it out just right to give yourself time to get each image in your compilation. Or if you're doing an action shot like jumping and want to capture each moment like a flip book you speed up the shutter. The post effects are great, too!"
Pandora Radio: "Words don't do it justice. This is a must. Any music, any time ? based on your favorites and intermixed with ones you've never heard, so you're constantly discovering new favorites. It's on in my home 24/7."
Pano: "I love to photograph the gorgeous landscapes when I travel. This app is the best! It's also fun when there are only two people and you switch taking the Pano photo so when it's complete it looks as if you were in the photo together."
Dictionary.com: "I write a lot. This thesaurus is my most valued tool. It allows you to paint your writing with such details and beauty."
Project 365: "The best way to document your year. It also forces you to make every day worth a photo."
TOTALe Companion: "This is an amazing app for learning and practicing a new language. I use it to keep up on my French! It even has speech recognition for pronunciation practice."
Action Movie FX: "This is endless fun with my nieces and nephews. I can't tell you how many tornadoes I've been in. Dorothy has nothing on me!"
Gucci Style: "This one is so great because I can not only shop the newest pieces, but browse through the archives for inspiration. And my favorite part is that it also has a soundtrack made by Frida, a travel guide to the French Riviera (my favorite place in the world), and early previews of movies at Cannes and info on film restoration. One of the reasons I appreciate working with Gucci so much is how prominent philanthropy is in their foundation. This keeps you up to date on all that they're creating. I'm proud to have a home there."
Style.com: "This is also one of my most used apps because I do my own styling. I find all my looks for events on this site by browsing all the runway shows. It updates quickly during fashion week and also has a great history of shows that have passed for pulling pieces from archive. I truly couldn't do it without Style.com."

In case you missed it yesterday, I ended up updating that story about Blake and her phantom baby bump. Page Six had a source who claimed that Blake was eating more than usual on the set of Gossip Girl, and that she was ?glowing?? which obviously means BABY. Blake?s rep shut it down hard and fast, telling Gossip Cop that the Page Six story was ?completely untrue? within hours of Page Six?s publication. So, what does that mean? Blake isn?t selling you babies. Yet. She?s selling you the ideas of babies, because she?s so young and fertile and she?ll get pregnant soon, but right now she?s just so crazy in-love and baking and food and BABIES! It?s a circular argument, you see? Anyway, Us Weekly managed to get a ?tip? on how Ryan Reynolds loves the crap out of Blake?s happy-homemaker routine.
In Ryan Reynolds’ eyes — okay, in most guys’ eyes — Blake Lively is the total package.
The low-key duo and Green Lantern costars — who tied the knot in an intimate, top-secret Charleston, SC ceremony September 9 — first bonded during quiet date nights at Lively’s NYC apartment, where the actress showed off her culinary prowess. (“I love, love to bake!” Lively told Us Weekly last year.)
“Ryan loves the comfort Blake provides,” an insider tells Us. “It’s like, ‘You were on the cover of Vogue and you want to cook me dinner? Yes, please!’”
Echoes another source, “They are ridiculously in love.”
On Thursday, Lively, 25, headed back to work on the set of Gossip Girl in NYC, where two things were noticeably absent — her wedding ring, and that baby bump everyone has been on the lookout for.
That morning, her rep slammed a report in The New York Post’s Page Six that the actress and Reynolds, 35, are expecting, calling the rumors “completely untrue.”
Though she’s not pregnant now, kids might not be too far off for the head-over-heels newlyweds.
“I’ve always wanted a big family,” Lively told the October issue of Allure. “Oh, I’d love 30 [children] if I could.”
[From Us Weekly]
Here?s the thing ? I think this is probably true. We can debate whether or not Blake?s happy-homemaker routine is for real, but I have no doubt that Ryan enjoys the way Blake is (or how she acts around him), and she must seem worlds more stable than Scarlett Johansson.
I?ve been actively avoiding using ScarJo?s name in all of these Blake and Ryan posts, but this Us Weekly story is ABOUT ScarJo and how Blake is so much better for Ryan than ScarJo. And that gives me mixed feelings, like I actually feel sympathetic towards ScarJo (who really doesn’t NEED my sympathy). For one, Scarlett was really young when she got together with Ryan. I?m not infantilizing her, I?m just saying? I think she was trying on the ?wife/partner in a serious relationship? persona, and I?ve always felt like Scarlett got tired of playing that role pretty quickly, and her real personality came out. I think Ryan sees himself as a stable, conservative (conservative meaning ?not crazy, not a womanizer?) dude who wants a family, and women that date him tend to tailor their personalities to fit with that. ScarJo couldn?t keep up the faade. As for Blake? either it?s not a faade and this is what she?s really like, or she?ll outgrow this happy-homemaker phase in a few years too.
Here are Blake?s Gucci ads again, just because how do we know that this marriage isn?t just some promotional scam for Gucci? HOW?

Blake Lively says she’s taken up cooking and loves experimenting when she travels. So much so that she’s always smuggling back local ingredients through customs.
“I have smuggled so many ingredients across so many borders, like shallot confit from Thailand, or a new sauce from New Orleans not approved by the FDA.I’m stuffing them in teddy bears cut in half and put back together again and I’ve gotten really good at it, although now I’m talking about it, I’m sure customs will be all over me next time I go anywhere.”
Hidden in teddy bears? Why didn’t I think of that? And here I was stuffing saffron into my anus.

Word on the street is that newlywed ?Gossip Girl? star Blake Lively is pregnant with her first child with husband Ryan Reynolds. Page Six says:
The blond beauty, back at work in New York after her secret Sept. 9 wedding to Ryan Reynolds, is ?glowing,? say spies, but also is eating more than normal.
One spy said, ?Blake is usually really careful about what she eats, but since her wedding, she seems to be eating a lot more. Everyone on set is on bump-watch.? A rep for Blake rep didn?t respond to e-mails last night.
Blake Lively might be pregnant, you say? That’s really interesting. Almost as interesting as this story about a Japanese chef who cooked up his own surgically-removed genitals and served them to guests at $300 dollars a pop. Except not really. Only in fucking Japan, man.

Yesterday, Blake Lively returned to the New York set of Gossip Girl. After Blake?s publicist slammed People Mag for their cover lie (?People was there!? ? at her wedding), I kind of assumed that Blake would be on lockdown, that she would only be doing the big reveal to Martha Stewart Weddings, and that all of the pap agencies and weekly tabloids would just have to suck it. Not so much, as it turns out. Blake made sure she was photographed in a lovey embrace with her new husband (in photos that were taken after their wedding in South Carolina and released yesterday), all while flashing her enormous engagement ring and wedding band. You can see the kiss photo here, and here?s a closeup of the ring:
The ring is actually a Pink diamond. Can you tell? I can?t. Ryan went to jeweler Lorraine Schwartz, and according to Schwartz?s spokesperson, ?Ryan chose Lorraine Schwartz to help him find a flawless, light Pink oval diamond. They worked together to design a custom setting in rose gold and pave diamonds with a nod to deco.” Reportedly, the ring cost somewhere in the vicinity of $2 million. It?s a pretty ring? it?s not my particular style, but I like that it doesn?t look like everybody else?s engagement ring, you know? I think her wedding band is pretty too.
Oh, and we?ve found out more about the dress too. Blake wore ?a one-of-kind couture Marchesa bridal gown with hand-draped silk tulle bodice adorned with crystal and rose gold embroidery.? Something about the idea of a Marchesa creation with ?hand-draped silk tulle? makes me wonder if Blake?s wedding gown resembled a toga. No judgment. If she wanted to wear a toga on her wedding day, God bless.
Last Blake news? she and Ryan honeymooned in Virginia! They were only a few hours away from me. I totally should have crashed their honeymoon (?HEY Y?ALL!?). They stayed at Virginia?s Inn at Little Washington ? you can read more here.

Everything about Blake Lively is ?bold? these days. I mean that seriously. Blake and Ryan Reynolds were married in a secret ceremony in South Carolina eight days ago, and the tabloids are still playing catch-up, because in a bold move, Blake barely leaked anything about the wedding. Blake and Ryan didn?t sell or give away their wedding photos to People Mag or Us Weekly either. Instead, in a bold move, Blake had her wedding styled and organized by Martha Stewart?s people, and the wedding photos will appear exclusively in the December issue of Martha Stewart Weddings. So not only did Blake wedding-block the tabloids, she gave away her exclusive to a prestigious and well-read monthly magazine. And in another BOLD move, Blake and her publicist are taking PEOPLE MAG to task for their cover lie on last week?s cover.
While People magazine is viewed as the veritable bulletin board for publicists? handouts, the celebrity weekly has drawn the ire of Blake Lively?s team for this week?s cover about her wedding to Ryan Reynolds, which gleefully blared, ?People Was There!?
But a source in Blake?s camp sniped, ?No, People was not there, unless you count an uninvited photographer sitting on a boat sneaking shots.?
We?re told Lively was concerned that the cover line gave the impression that she had sold her wedding pictures to the weekly, which has recently officially featured the wedding of Drew Barrymore and also Matthew McConaughey.
A Lively rep confirmed, ?People was not there, no pictures were sold.?
[From Page Six]
So Blake and her publicist are basically picking a fight with PEOPLE MAG. I cannot emphasis enough how bold that move is. If you?re a celebrity and you don?t like something that People Mag does, you know what happens? Not much. It’s People ? the most powerful gossip and celebrity news outlet out there. If you don?t like their coverage (and you?re a celebrity), you simply call your publicist and work something out with People?s editors, a tit for tat to get better coverage. If you?re a celebrity, you basically NEVER publicly call out People Mag for acting like a tabloid, for trying to crash your wedding. Maybe Blake thinks that she doesn?t need People. Maybe she?s just trying to flaunt how important she is now. I don?t know. It will be interesting to see if People?s editors address the issue somehow.

I had a small preview of this last week ?Blake Lively is the cover girl for the October issue of Allure. Which means that this cover interview was done a few months ago, before she was married to Ryan Reynolds. They were probably engaged, but she doesn?t even confirm that. What she does confirm? That she?s hellbent on becoming the most perfect 1950s housewife EVER! Which is par for the course when it comes to Blake and her recent interviews ? all about not working out, eating, cooking, cleaning, being a happy homemaker. There?s absolutely nothing wrong with that, but for the love of God, I wish she would change up her talking points once in a while. Some highlights from the piece:
Premarital bliss: “Right now, I’m so peaceful. I’ve never been happier in my life,” she adds.
Making the choice to be happy: “It’s the choice that you have to wake up every day and say, ‘There’s no reason today can’t be the best day of my life.’”
Family: “I’ve always wanted a big family. Oh, I’d love 30 [children] if I could.”
Imperfections, body image: “I obviously have plenty of imperfections on my body, but I’d rather have a little bit of cellulite and go do a food trip and try every ice cream place in the South.”
[Allure via Us Weekly]
She talks like a life coach. Right? Happiness is a choice, you have to wake up and say that this day will be the best day of your life, I?ve never been happier, I am at peace with the world and all things in the world and DEAR GOD ENOUGH. I appreciate that kind of ?Zen? quality in people, but you have to admit? it makes for a pretty dull person.
Allure put up a slideshow using old photos of Blake (like, from her teenage years and her pre-nose job Hollywood years) and they got her to comment on the photos. You can see the slideshow here ? she talks about being tall and how she was a ?terrible, spastic dancer? in middle school how no one else at her middle school was doing the Kate Moss unbrushed hair thing. Funny. Blake also referenced Ben Affleck (COUGH!) and The Town while looking at one photo, saying: ?[The Town] is one of my most proud pieces. That cast, I learned so much from each of them. They’re all such generous actors, and Ben was an incredible director. That was a big turning point for me in my life, in my career.” Fascinating.
Can you believe she’s cradling a lamb against her bolt-ons?

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds got married on Sunday, as we discussed yesterday. When I wrote about it yesterday, I said, ?I would love to know the guest list. I would love to know if they?ll sell (or give away) any photos from the event ? my guess is no, they won?t.? I was thinking about People Magazine or Us Weekly (never the lower-tier tabloids) when I wrote that ? I didn?t even consider the idea that Blake could have organized a photo shoot with a monthly magazine. Not just any monthly either ? Martha Stewart Weddings! OMG. Blake truly is a 1950s housewife throwback. Amazing.
Blake and Ryan’s wedding was a good thing. Martha Stewart’s team worked with Lively, 25, and Reynolds, 35, and planner Tara Gurard of Soiree in Charleston, S.C, to create an “intimate, personalized party” for immediate and extended family “in a rustic barn,” according to Martha Stewart Weddings.
“From the heartfelt ceremony to the fun-filled carnival hour and elegant reception, it was a truly enchanting celebration,” according to the magazine, which promises more details in its December issue.
The ceremony took place at Boone Hall Plantation in Mt. Pleasant, S.C., Sunday just outside of Charleston. “Ryan, who has been a long-time fan of Charleston, chose to mark this special occasion in one of his favorite towns,” according to the magazine.
Lively wore a one-of-a-kind Marchesa couture bridal ball gown with a hand-draped silk tulle bodice adorned with crystal and rose gold embroidery.
Her bridesmaids wore blush silk chiffon Marchesa gowns with crystal embroidered detail. The women all wore shoes from Christian Louboutin.
The groom and groomsmen donned Burberry suits with custom leather suspenders designed by Ryan’s friend Christopher Bailey. The couple exchanged rings by Lorraine Schwartz.
The wedding, first reported by PEOPLE, also had a reception held in a white tent at the plantation. Florence Welch (of Florence and the Machine), a good friend of the Gossip Girl star, performed three songs live for guests.
[From People]
I am in physical PAIN over the fact that Blake wore Marchesa. She was the face of Chanel (purses). She?s the current face of a Gucci perfume. How is it that Blake ?Baller? Lively had to saunter and mumble her way through her wedding in a GD Marchesa gown?!? You know she looked like an ice-skater MESS. You know it?s going to be tacky and budget. And Ryan managed to wrangle Christopher Bailey for his suit! Bailey is the head of Burberry ? and you know Bailey was probably horrified to learn the bride was going to wear Marchesa. HOW GAUCHE. Seriously. Just to give you a taste, this is what Blake looks like in Marchesa:
