Barbiecore pink had its moment—and what a glorious moment it was!—but it’s time to move on. Leave it to IRL Barbie Blake Lively to find a new way to channel the iconic doll without going anywhere near magenta. For a night out with the Swift Squad, Lively paired a multi-colored mini-dress with a light blue tweed jacket and a toy-sized quilted blue purse. It’s very pastel and it’s very Chanel, though it might technically be from another designer…
Pretty pink kitten heels and sparkly jewels complete the look, and Lively’s husband Ryan Reynolds stayed on theme in a pink collared shirt with a youthful design on the front, plus his ever-present beaded bracelets.
I wanna say his socks are…flamingo-patterned?
The pair were out to dinner with longtime friend Taylor Swift, plus her pals Gigi Hadid, Zoë Kravitz, Channing Tatum, and Cara Delevingne. Swift, too, wore a light blue outfit to the dinner, which, if you know Taylor Swift Color Theory, you know is a subtle nod to her upcoming rerecorded album, . The red lip, the New York location? Yeah, she’s in promo mode, and maybe Lively wanted to match the musician.
The Gossip Girl star, who doesn’t work with a stylist, has been in a lightly colorful mood all summer, embracing her inner cottage core with a picnic table dress…
…and later went back to the blue gingham well while out for a walk with Ryan.
Despite the SAG-AFTRA strike, it’s a great time to be Blake Lively, because Fashion Week is in town! Earlier on Monday she rocked a disco-inspired look at the Michael Kors show, wearing a nude sequined jumpsuit that emphasized her height. Just look at this and tell me it doesn’t make you want to hit the dance floor immediately. When will this woman get her own capsule collection or walk a runway already?
