It’s obvious that they were not filming at this time, as Leighton Meester’s character, Blair, wouldn’t be caught dead in Uggs.  Nor would Chuck walk down the street with her if she was wearing them. But Blake Lively, or should I say Serena,  seems to be in character at all times!

It’s really not like me to be undecided about a certain look…but this dress has me a bit puzzled! There’s something about this Christopher Kane look that is quite original and interesting, yet I feel as though there is something missing. I don’t think this fits Leighton like it should, or maybe it’s just the awkward color scheme. Not sure! U?

The stars of last night’s (again that is assuming you are reading this on Friday, despite it being posted at 4am) Cobra Starship put on quite the show. Gabe Sporta was his usual energetic self moving all across the stage, and while the clip above doesn’t feature the expected “special guest” Leighton Meester, their synth player Victoria takes over just fine. Check out the clip of them performing “Good Girls Go Bad” off their upcoming album Hot Mess, which will hit shelves August 11!

We sat down with Jeff, Ayad, and Ian of Passion Pit to rattle off a few questions before their set, and found out everything you really wanted to know:

Fashion Indie: So rumor has it you guys are sponsored by Marc Jacobs?

Passion Pit (looking shocked): No, we’d like to be sponsored by some dorky stuff (Ayad).

Manager- Marc Jacobs may be sending them some free stuff.

Ian- Usually what happens is that we endorse something, and then we get free stuff, like instruments.

Fashion Indie: Who is the most fashion-conscious member of your band?

PP: (Disagreement) Ian thinks he’s the most fashionable but Jeff and Ayad agree that it’s Mike.  Mike took a fashion class, which is where the name Passion Pit originated from. Fashion Indie agrees that it is most likely Mike.

FI: Cobra Starship did a collaboration with Leighton Meester (who we actually had to explain to the guys that she was from Gossip Girl, they had no idea who she was).  If you could do a collaboration with a celebrity, who would it be?

PP: Beyonce.

Jeff- No Solange.

Manager- …you probably could do that.

Ayad- We should stick with the original.

Jeff- Yeah, we might as well reach for the sky.

FI: Have you guys seen the movie Bruno? (No, not yet). If he were to style your next photo shoot, would it be the full velcro suit? Or the kilt with angel wings from the MTV VMAs?

PP: Neither, the banana hammock

FI: If you were to do a collaboration product or line with Diesel, what would it be?

PP (after some muttering, something about not liking the pricing too much, I think):

Ayad- I’d do more stuff for broad shouldered, shorter guys. (Clearly making reference to his stature).

FI: Alright, last question; who had better style as a TV father figure, Mike Brady or Bill Cosby?

PP (In up-roaring agreement): Bill Cosby, he had a bad ass sweater collection.

Passion Pit put on a killer performance. Corey is uploading videos to the Fashion Indie Youtube channel as I type! Check out more photos from their performance on Cult

We had a chance to sit down tonight with Gabe and Ryland of Cobra Starship at the ‘Diesel U:Music’ event at Webster Hall, and they dished exclusively to Fashion Indie about everything you really wanted to know:

–

Fashion Indie: First and foremost, how incredibly hot is Leighton Meester?

Cobra Starship: Really hot!  She’s the hottest she’s ever looked in our video.  In Gossip Girl she’s in high school, but in our video she brought it.

Ryland: She’s really shiny.

Gabe: She’s got the blonde hair, like Betty to Veronica. She’s a bad girl. They both agree, she’s a total babe.

FI: Ryland, if you could steal an article from Gabe’s closet, what would it be?

CS: My retro Jordan 2 Low-tops.

Wait, what?….Apparently Gabe stole a pair of Ryland’s Jordan’s, and he keeps them in his “cloffice,” or closet office, which he described as “I keep a stack of sneakers and I have a little desk.”  Just what I want, more space for the clothes and shoes, and a tiny desk to work from. So I guess if Ryland had to choose an article of Gabe’s clothing to steal, it would be one of his own, and Gabe agreed that if he had to steal an article of Ryland’s clothing, it would be the Jordans that he already stole.

FI: If your upcoming album, Hot Mess, were an article of clothing, what would it be?

CS (Both agree): After simply blurting out thong, they rediscuss the question to come up with a dirty long tank top with holes in it and no underwear, after a five day binge, with puke and blood all over it, and one nipple showing.

Side note- The guys told us that the tattoo on the girl’s lip on the cover of the album is actually a real tattoo. Nobody knew it, but it’s totally true.

FI: If you were to do a collaboration product of line with Diesel, what would it be?

CS: A stretch denim unitard, maybe in full cobra print. 90%  Stretch Denim, 10% Lycra

FI: How do you guys dress for the stage?

CS: Gabe- Honestly, we’re posers, we play to the crowd.  If we’re playing for a bunch of fifteen-year-olds that love hoodies, we’ll wear hoodies.

Ryland- And if we’re playing for a bunch of Republicans, we’ll wear blue suits and red ties.

FI: Who is the best dressed in the band?

CS: Gabe- Ryland. He reads The Sartorialist and stuff. I just shop at the mall.

Finally, we saved the best for last:

FI: If you were on ‘Nickelodeon Super Toy Run,’ what toy would you be gunning for?

CS uproar: Gabe doesn’t know what ‘Nickelodeon Super Toy Run’ was because he’s an “immigrant” and didn’t have cable, which turned into him calling us racist because immigrants couldn’t watch Super Toy Run, but Rylan quickly replied “The Voltron full set, the metal one, not the plastic one.”

The guys put on a great show, Corey’s uploading the videos as I type! Check out a gallery of their performance on Cult

Definitely not a look for the bashful.  Celebs have been spotted a few times now wearing perfectly matched dresses and leggings.  My mom used to always tell me to compliment, not match, but I think taking advice from Leighton Meester (at the MET Gala) may be a better option?

Get some crazy leggings at The Costume Dept. or by Brian Lichtenberg, go and search for the perfect matching dress, and be the first to try out this trend!

M.I.A. in Brian Lichtenberg leggings (with a matching leopard tee!)

Aside from that dress, she looks gorgeous. Her hair doesn’t look stupid pulled back (i.e. Megan Fox?), her shoes are adorable, her makeup looks good, even her body look amazing.  But what is going on with that weird, bondage dress?  At first, I didn’t think she knew the back was sheer and thought it was one of those ‘oh my god’ moments when a celebrity realizes a camera flash makes their dress sheer, but she doesn’t seem concerned.  Aside from the back looking like you can see her underwear, wtf is going on with those flaps near her hips? You’ve got confidence Leighton Meester, a lot of confidence.

I love Leighton Meester. She is gorgeous, and always looks so cute.  But I seriously hope that her hair is only that color because of a role, and not a permanent decision.  I hear that Meester is a natural blonde, but that color looks everything but natural.  I prefer her in Blair-like brown.

We’ll start at the root of the problem, Ed Westwick. Ed has a band called The Filthy Youth that he has put on hold to finish up with Gossip Girl. If you’re putting your so called “punk” band on hold to shoot a show called Gossip Girl, you shouldn’t be in a punk band. Not to mention the band really isn’t good. Don’t believe me? Check out their MySpace.

Next up Taylor Momsen. Trying to follow suit with Ed Westwick, she started a grunge inspired band called The Reckless that also isn’t good. Her bandmates suck, she’s awkward on stage, and there is a reason she got cut from being Hannah Montana back in the day, because she can’t really sing. I’ve listened to her songs over and over, and she sings in a monotoned voice. The point of grunge music is to scream and squeel, and while she tries she doesn’t succeed. If she really wants to start a band maybe something the in light of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs would be a bit more appropriate. Taylor has the look, she just needs the material to back it up.

And finally there’s Leighton Meester. Much to my suprise, B can sing (but then again so can anyone with auto tune)! Never the less, Leighton has by far the superior voice to the prior two, but again I don’t know where her intentions are with music. She chose to do her major debut doing guest vocals for the hipster dance wannabe’s Cobra Starship, but I’m interested in seeing where her career takes her. She belongs in pop music for sure.

For all these aspiring rock stars, maybe their music should remain a hobby. They will forever be cast in the shadow of their Gossip Girl Upper East Sider shadows. Not to mention, I thought that Jennifer Love Hewitt proved to world that sitcom stars can’t become triple threats (not since Jared Leto I guess, but look at him now!).

Here’s a video of the Cobra Starship song that Leighton is featured on. This isn’t the actual video, but that kid really sums up my point that Leighton picked the wrong song to debut on:

Leighton Meester gets my vote for the biggest risk-taker…something about it is so sexy, the matching dress and leggings, with the tie shoes and no jewelry, I love it, def not something Blair Waldorf would rock!

Oh Terry, what we must do to make a buck. The posterboy of hipster sleaze and debauchery was forced to make some capital by photographing the oh so boring girls of that show that was really, really good for a while, but is no becoming redundant and not offering much in the way of story line or character development, Gossip Girl.

I actually do still love the show, but was totally disappointed by the last episode. Really? The Age of Innocence? Really? You couldn’t tell the uber gay director was gay Serena? Really? Dan’s still being on the show?!?

Anyway, back to Terry. His edge is off. He’s using big, pretty expensive camera’s now and I miss the old stuff, the gritty stuff, the stuff that didn’t look and feel like everyone else. I get that he’s now this brand, but stop with the diffusion lines and get back to the art (aka, have some real fun and actually make these girls do something with that hot dog). Basically, I feel let down Terry. I’m always rooting for you, but now I’m just hoping for a comeback.

We all anticipated the return of Gossip Girl, and with it the fashions. Monday night’s episode brought us two amazing Marchesa gowns from Fall o8

Leighton wore a high collared gown had ruffled details on the shoulders, and 3/4 of the skirt, with a charming brooch completing the look.

Black wore a strapless dove grey gown, was adorned with feathers around the bodice, which cascaded down one side of her multi-layered chiffon skirt.
