Saks is on the "A-List"

Saks opening page reads, "Editors A-list, Wear it like they wear it!"

The choices of closets to imitate are Brooke Shields, Rihanna, Agyness Deyn, Sarah Jessica Parker, Aneglia Jolie, & Taylor Momsen. While I must agree with many of the looks put together for each woman, something irks me about the picks for "little Jenny Humphrey."

While Momsen's raccoon-eyed punk chic ways, may have ran its course on Gossip Girl, (who says prayers don't get answered?) did she ever really dress like this in real life?

Of course you see her now and then, with a leather jacket and some grunge-esque boots, but the options Saks gives you to recreate Momsen's "personal style", I think falls short. Saks did add a nice touch though, with "taylor-ing" (pun intended), the models hair to the cut and semi-color of Momsen's. Maybe they thought if the model looked similar enough to the real thing, we'd believe she actually would wear these clothes, including this See by Chloé
Cotton Tuxedo Tank, & Cotton/Silk skirt. (First) And just because you throw a Proenza Schouler Cropped Leather Jacket (Second) on, does not mean Momsen would actually wear this.

Sorry Saks, but some of your A-list choices don't even "wear it like they wear it."

Moving on, I actually think the bigger question here, is how did they come to pick the people on this list in the first place? Now, after this blog post you may think I am a Jenny Humphrey hater, but this is simply not true, especially after last week's episode, no one deserves to be hated more then Dan, oh and the writers, for that "Eyes Wide Shut" plotline with Chuck.

However, TAYLOR MOMSEN? REALLY? Were there no better options?

If you could pick someone to replace Momsen who would it be?
