Blair's dress - Elie Saab 2012 Spring Couture

So, my friend Daniela and I had class at the Whitney today so we decided to go to set before and when we were finished.

We were walking to set and Penn was walking down the street towards us so we were like “Hi Penn” and he said hi back, but then as soon as he walked away I looked at Daniela and was like “ahahah I hate him so much!!” lol

Then we met Amanda in front of The Met and they weren’t doing much. We saw mini Blair and Serena, Chace and Sophia. We decided to go see the trailers after a while. We were waiting by them and we saw that someone was in the hair and makeup one. We waited for them to come out when we saw that it was Kaite Cassidy! She and Desmond Harrington (Uncle Jack) walked to set and we followed them. Then we saw Michelle and Blake got there too and they all rehearsed. Then, we saw that Blake was going to her trailer to get into her costume and so we ran and started walking in front of her. We got to the street before her and moved to the side. We moved to the side and she walked right in front of us and I was like “Hi Blake!” and she was like “Hi, how are you?”

And somewhere in between we were walking down the street the trailers were on and Penn was walking towards us with the security guard that I’ve seen when I met Leighton the past two times (the one that like, recognizes me now lol) and I tried to say hi to him (I didn’t even notice Penn was there lol) but Penn thought I was talking to him so he said hi and once he walked away I said to Amanda and Daniela “I wasn’t trying to say hi to you!” lol it was so funny! I hate him so much!

All of the scenes they filmed on The Met steps were:

1. Sage hands Nate this manilla envelope and he walked down the steps, listens in to whatever mini Blair and Serena are saying then they walk away (I also think he talked to them at one point but I forget)

2. Serena, Nate, Dan, Georgina, and Jack walk up the steps

3. Juliet was looking at her phone then walking down the street

Then we waited by Blake’s trailer. All of these dumb school girls were on their lunch break and so they found out they were filming and Penn was smoking so he was outside of his trailer, and they saw him and started freaking out. We were waiting for Blake to come out but she was taking so long so we decided to go back to see them film again. We got bored of watching Katie walk over and over again so we went to this other location that Amanda found to see what the signs said and then Daniela and I went to the Whitney and Amanda went to Starbucks to charge her phone.

When we were done, Daniela and I met back up with Amanda and we went back to The Met but they were cleaning up so we just waited near the trailers. We saw Chace and Michelle leave (and Desmond left too but we didn’t see him leave). We walked back to the other location and then went into Central Park to look for them filming in there. We eventually found it and we saw Leighton and Blake (and also Penn) filming a scene on this bridge.

Leighton was wearing a wedding dress that was lace-y and embroidered and just SOOO pretty! And her hair was in the gorgeous updo with a beautiful floral-y headband.

The scene was like this:

- Blair and Serena were on this bridge and Penn was waiting at the bottom of the steps holding the bouquet of peonies

- it looked like Blair had some sort of problem and was having a heart-to-heart with Serena (and Dan was probably just tagging along with Serena, I didn’t see him do anything except stand at the bottom of the steps holding the flowers)

After watching that we went back to the trailers but didn’t see anything so we went back to the other location (which was 10 blocks away). Basically, after that it was basically A LOT of walking. We walked those 10 blocks like 2359734857 times! Ugh! It was so annoying. We never saw anyone in the trailers (I was hoping to see Leighton again) but one of the other times when we walked back, we saw them drive the trailers away so we thought they were going to park them at the other location. So we started walking to the other one and were just like “Omg were actually following the trailers now. We took this stalking the set thing to a whole new level!” lol When we got to the other location, there were no trailers. We went to go see what was going on on the next block but there was nothing there. We sat down for a few minutes then when we walked back, there were no cones and they took down the signs so I guess they decided they didn’t need to, or just couldn’t, film there tonight.

Then we decided to leave and that’s basically it :)
