Gossip Girl: They Shoot Humphreys

Last night’s Gossip Girl was quite the shocker, huh? A threesome with Hilary Duff? Wow! The scenes from the Cotillion took me right back to my own Senior Cotillion, although we didn’t don beautiful, expensive designer gowns. Actually this is more along the lines of what we wore to Cotillion (or actually it IS what we wore to Cotillion, haha!):

Blair’s Marchesa gown was much more stunning than my department store special:
