Serena Van Der Woodsen NYC Style

In celebration of Blake Lively's 28th birthday, here are 13 times Serena van der Woodsen was the reigning It Girl of New York City.
New York is not a town for picky eaters.
Forget love. There are more important Ls in an Upper East Sider's life.
You can always escape from the city by digging your nose into a good book. #DoNotDisturb.
From one too many taxi rides to too-expensive dinners out, we've all made mistakes we'd rather forget.
It's okay to admit you wish dating in New York were a little more like When Harry Met Sally.
Society events can be brutal. Always find a best friend who doubles as a bodyguard.
Just a dose of that infamous New York bluntness.
Because the concrete jungle can get a little overwhelming.
This is where the FOGO trend started.
Real New Yorkers know: A slap in the face usually gets the point across.
You're never too old for slumber parties, especially when your bedroom has a flawless view of the park.
Even through all its faults and complications, there really is no greater place on earth.
