During her return to the red carpet after giving birth to <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/blake-lively-gives-birth-fourth-child\/\">her and Ryan Reynolds&#8217; fourth child<\/a>, Lively took inspiration (even if unbeknown to her) from her on-screen character&#8217;s best friend.<\/p>\n<p>Heading to the Upper West Side for Barnard College\u2019s annual gala in New York City \u2014 an event Waldorf and van der Woodsen would most definitely have attended \u2014 Lively wore a floral, off-the-shoulder gown by Carolina Herrera from the label\u2019s recent autumn\/winter 2023 collection.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_232003\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-232003\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignfull -width\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-232003 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/download-4-1.jpg\" alt=\"Blake Lively\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1058\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-232003\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Instagram \/ @blakelively<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The dress, as <em>Vogue<\/em> noted, which Lively paired with feminine pink pumps, could have been taken directly from Blair Waldorf&#8217;s wardrobe.

Later, on Instagram, Lively revealed she paired the tea-length dress with a neon pink and yellow Sergio Hudson trench to brave the New York spring streets, adding a little of another stylish New Yorker&#8217;s energy, Carrie Bradshaw, to top off the look.<\/p>\n<p>Lively also mentioned her iconic role during the night, speaking at the gala about almost attending college herself. \u201cZero acting jobs later, I decided to go back to college, and two weeks after that, the producers of <em>Gossip Girl\u00a0<\/em>called me like an ex-boyfriend, and they said, \u2018Listen, will you please do the show?&#8221; she quipped.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And if you do, we promise you can go to Columbia one day a week as long as it doesn&#8217;t interfere with our seven-day-a-week shooting schedule.\u2019 Who doesn&#8217;t want to earn a bachelor&#8217;s degree in 77 years? So needless to say, I think I have to accept that tonight is the closest I&#8217;m going to get, so I&#8217;m just going to pretend that this is me graduating tonight. So thank you!
