At Proenza Schouler on Wednesday night, Leighton Meester debuted some brand spanking new bangs that I think we all need to discuss:
I feel a bit like I did when Rachel Bilson cut hers, which is to say, that the hair curtain is totally unnecessary and is kind of interfering with the rest of her face. I wonder if they're done filming Gossip Girl yet, because I have a hard time imagining Blair Waldorf would cut bangs unless she lost a bet with Chuck Bass or was going incognito as... well, as Rachel Bilson. I mean, for one thing, it's going to take a LOT of work to pin those suckers back under a headband without tons of spiky little flyaways poking up in the wrong direction.
But maybe I just hate change, and just as with Posh's myriad dramatic haircuts that shock and alarm me at first blush, I will grow to love the bangs and eventually become unable to imagine my life without them.
