When you’re the queen bee of the Upper East Side, it’s never enough to simply be wearing a designer label. Blair put her own luxe touch on her exceptionally elegant Burberry Belted Brocade Dress with an Alexis Bittar Jeweled Magnolia Brooch in the “Reversals of Fortune” episode of Gossip Girl.

We’re not going to lie. Blair’s extravagant finishing piece does cost a pretty penny. But that’s exactly why we sought out to find a brooch just as bold and beautiful at fraction of the price. This Flower Brooch in Gold features center mounted crystals and eye-catching gold petals that will add just as much polish to your look.

Blair has a sophisticated taste in fashion that’s light years ahead of her generation, so we’re not that surprised that Monday’s big look comes from Burberry. Ready to wear this chic piece like Blair? Get all the details on her accessories after the jump.

Spotted: Leighton Meester frolicking on the beach. The adorable Leighton Meester is evolving into a style icon. From her risky Louis Vuitton ensemble at the Met Gala to her more laidback choices, Leighton is proving that she is not afraid to take risks in terms of cut and color. We love this Pencey One Shoulder Tee. It is cute and simple, yet the asymmetrical neckline makes it a more versatile piece that can be worked into the night.

Krizia from www.myBeautyMatch.com talks to Norman Sands about fall 2008 makeup trends.

Norman Sands is a celebrity makeup artist and he’s also the makeup stylist and trainer for NARS Cosmetics. With over 10 years of experience and countless editorial makeup spreads and countless celebrities as his list of clients, Norman was the logical choice to understand the strongest trends of the season.

I hope you read Norman’s full description of the makeup he did for Leighton Meester (from Gossip Girl) for her front-row seat at the 3.1 Phillip Lim show during New York City’s recent Fashion Week events.

Leighton Meester’s NARS NY Fashion Week Look

Here are the strongest fall 2008 trends:

1) What are the fall 2008 makeup trends?

Norman Sands:

1. Kohl Rimmed Eyes
2. Clean and Simple
3. Bold Lips
4. Luminous Skin
5. Sunset Hues (golden shades)

2) How can women adapt the runway looks to their everyday lifestyle?

Norman Sands: I think it’s always important to keep in mind what we refer to as runway to real-way.  It’s about making a trend that you like work for you.  Modern makeup is about confidence, lifestyle and personal preference, at NARS we call that wardrobing.
Francois Nars says skin is 50 per cent of the makeup so this season it’s all about beautiful skin.

3) Are we still seeing the smokey eye on the runway?

Norman Sands: We are moving from the smokey eye to the smoldering and kohl rimmed eye.  Each season it’s about updating makeup techniques. The smokey eye will always be a timeless classic but the application, color and techniques will change each season.

The perfect smouldering eye is created by layering and blending texures on the eye: 1) At NARS we start with a cream shadow (Zardoz, Lili Marlene or Savage). 2) Next blend a beautiful metallic over the cream shadow (Ashes to Ashes Single Eyeshadow, Isolde Eyeshadow Duo). 3) Then we follow with Cordura Eyeshadow applied with Smudge brush #15 close to the lash line keeps the look more wearable.

4) What are we doing with lists this season?

Norman Sands:

* Red will always be a timeless classic.  NARS is known for the signature red lip. Because we are a luxury lifestyle brand at NARS we tend to let women find the trend that fits their lifestyle.

* One of my favorite bold lips to create is Niagara or Casablanca lipstick with Boogie Nights lip gloss.

* This season at 3.1 Phillip Lim International Makeup Director, Ayako, wanted to achieve a bold, berry-red coloured lip. Ayako, NARS International Makeup Director, applied the NARS Lipstick in Fire Down Below (a pure blood red with no blue or orange) to the entire lip. She blended the NARS Velvet Matte Pencil in Dragon Girl to the centre of the lip to brighten and empower the red.

5) What would you recommend for the 5-minute face?

Norman Sands:

Women have to remember they don’t always have to have a full face … sometimes you only have 5 minutes to get your makeup on and go. These are my recommendations:

1) NARS Brightening Serum a lightweight day-time moisturizer that brightens skin immediately with an illuminating pearlescence.

2) Concealer applied under eyes, around nose, chin and forehead and any areas that need covering.

3) Apply the Multiple colour palette in South Beach, Maldives, or Cannes to cheeks, eyes and lips.

4) Apply powder foundation with the Botan Brush to create the flawless airbrushed complexion.

5) Mascara (of course)

6) Top off the entire look with lips with your favourite gloss … you might want to try Chihuahua or Supervixen Lip Gloss, or a Velvet Matte Pencil (which doubles as a lipliner and lipstick).
