Where do Upper East Siders shop in Paris? These streets. Think Tally Weijl, Cartier, Givenchy, Chanel and Hermes. I, definitely not an Upper East Sider, did not go here but if you have the banks of Blair and Serena, hit up these locations to replicate their Gossip Girl Paris fashion.
‘luxury goods are the opiate of choice’
7) Cristal Room, Baccarat
Blair and Louis’ first date is at the luxury restaurant, the Cristal Room in the Musee Baccarat.
Louis pretends he is the royal family’s driver and Serena’s date is the Prince. Blair acts uninterested in Louis, jealous of Serena having the date with a Prince and makes it known to Louis.
Louis then reveals he is the Prince and Blair proved him right that she didn’t like him for him and leaves her.
