"Open letter to Eric Daman, Gossip Girl stylist: How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. The only thing better about that show than the insider-y NYC references, biting wit and impressively bitchy backstabbing is, of course, the wardrobe. Check out the latest look we&amp;#x27;re loving, straight from the GG set--and buy our version for less!--after the jump. You guys may already know that I&amp;#x27;m currently obsessed with my thigh-high boots (that I scored for just $169, thankyouverymuch!). I&amp;#x27;m also obsessed with pairing &amp;#x27;em with masculine, tailored pieces that help tone down their Pretty Woman factor. And so, it looks like, is Eric Daman! Check out this shot from the set of Gossip Girl here in NYC, where he dressed Serena Van Der Woodsen in a great ruched pair with an outfit I&amp;#x27;m really feeling. Sign up for Glamour.com&amp;amp;#8217;s Style Tips of the Week and Beauty Tip of the Day newsletters! Here&amp;#x27;s why it works: Her bum is covered, which is essential when rocking over-the-knee boots, lest you look like a working girl on duty (like this poor celeb, who had an oops moment while wearing hers). Her military-esque pea coat has strong lines that lend it a menswear-inspired vibe, and the tartan tights add to the boys club feel. She&amp;#x27;s nicely covered up on top, letting those legs take center stage, and there are just a few appropriate inches of thigh between the bottom of her hemline and the top of the boots. In short, she looks absolutely as chic as ever. Shop our version of Serena&amp;#x27;s look for less: What do you dolls think of this look? Does it inspire you to finally embrace the thigh-high boots trend? Have you already bought a pair? How have you been wearing &amp;#x27;em?
