    The California girl has come a long way since her days of ripped hip-huggers and graphic tees on the red carpet. Blake Lively has blossomed into a veritable style icon, with much credit owed to her role as the ever-styish Upper East-Sider, Serena van der Woodsen, in the TV series Gossip Girl. We're taking a look back at her best on-screen ensembles and the off-screen looks they inspired.
