A letter to Ms. Blake Lively:
Dear Blake (if I may call you that),
The first time I saw you, I think I had a girl crush on you. It was on the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I loved the book and I loved everything about that movie, you included. Then you became part of one of the biggest teen TV shows today. I saw more and more of you. LITERALLY. You see, I admire your gorgeous and perfect legs and I envy your healthy bosom. But what boggles me is that it looks like you often show them off. At the same time even, that you end up looking unlady-like. I admire your “if you got it, flaunt it” attitude but it would be nice to see you mix it up a little.
I still think you’re a beautiful girl, though.
Love,
A fan
P.S. Just for fun, I thought I’d collect photos of you showing your standard Blake style in 2009:
1. January
Love the color of your dress for the Golden Globes. This is your standard “tousled hair – hair tilted left” pose, by the way.
2. February
Vogue took advantage of your natural “traits” for February’s issue. I have to say that I love the old Hollywood feel to the photos.
3. March
Well, this is just classy. Top notch look, if you ask me. The length is perfect and the one-shoulder style is wonderful.
4. April
You said that you often feel like a tranny because you’re a big girl. Is this the reason why you dress up the way you do? That’s silly. You are one gorgeous girl and must NOT feel like a tranny AT ALL.
5. May
The color of this dress is awesome. But this is one example of “showing off just a tad too much.” Hair and makeup are lovely, though.
6. June
You look like a real Barbie doll! Tan included. This skirt length looks great on you too, FYI.
7. July
This is a look courtesy of Gossip Girl stylists. I don’t mind the length since this is a casual attire. I think you look cute.
8. August
I know I said something about how you shouldn’t show off them legs often but I have to admit that this is one of my favorite Blake Lively looks of 2009. Black and white become you. The shoes are great, too.
9. September
Oy, too much. Love the hair but the upper part of the dress is not nice.
10. October
I love this photo because I think Nate and Serena belong together. It’s nice that you covered up in hosiery, too.
11. November
You wore short shorts to a premier? Huh. While I think the bow adds whimsy to an otherwise sultry top, the bottom part of the outfit is kind of inappropriate.
12. December
Here you are with your perfect gams and cleavage yet again. Weren’t you cold? Anyway, I covet the shoes.
I like her June and August look, though I agreed with you on the September and November one. She’s just showing off a little too much.

I think Blake shows true potential as an actress…but she really needs to leave a little bit to the imagination…. classy is the way to go!

Is it possible that she’s just so tall that everything she wears ends up being short? Lol.

HAHAHA! That’s a great theory, Sheila. :D

I love February! And the color of her dress in May. And yes December’s shoes. Mmm

These are so cute! I think she could wear anything and pull it off.

I know! everytime I see her on the red carpet, I always see her showing off her boobs or legs. I wish she would wear something different for a change, give us some variety!

Very funny comment Sheila…..I really don’t think it’s her height that contributes to the length of her attire…..lol
She does have a great figure, but that December outfit does not do anything for her….at least in my opinion. I think it would have looked much classier had the slit not been so high up there.

SG,
Lol! Oh well, she’s still pretty. Though I like Leighton Meester better.

Blake really is a great actress and I look up to her. Yes, she does show of a little more than most people but she can pull it off. She also is never in bad spotlight so people pick on her style choices.

Hey Ciara,
I guess that could be one way to look at it. I don’t deny that she is a great actress, nor that she looks gorgeous. Just that she should acquire a tad bit more class – then again, I guess that’ll come with age!

Yes Blake Lively dresses a little provocatively but I agree with Ciara, she can pull it off. The fact that most people seem to miss is that she is an ACTRESS and therefore in the limelight most of the time, this is her lifestyle, to be glamazon! She is young with a great figure so I don’t know what the problem is. Class is a matter of opinion and largely age-dependent it seems, in this case. A fifty-year-old flashing boobs i must admit is hard to take. It’s all relative isn’t it.
There are more “unclassy” celebrities out there that may be more fitting for censure but really, Blake Lively? Surely not.
