hey people!

It's (finally) September and summer has come to an end. Yes, that means you got to ditch the Giuseppe Zanotti sandals for a brand new pair of Christian Louboutin booties. Gone are the 104 days to, well, do nothing. Back to long haul afternoon history lectures in that stuffy old auditorium. Back to the birthplace of bitching and backstabbing. Say goodbye to your summer loves, Aunt Patricia and Uncle Zio and it's time to say hi to me!

If you're wondering who I am, here's a clue. I'm the one sipping on a gin martini, flirting with the cute bartender. I'm the one sitting at cute café in Soho, nibbling on a croissant and sipping on a skim vanilla latte reading French Elle. I go to school with you, party with you, shop with you. I'm the one you would love to envy; too bad you don't know me. I'm just like all you Upper East Siders, but only in a better way. I'll be dishing on every meal with the worthy ingredients, but in the mean time…

Dear GG,

My dad got remarried two years ago and we've been living with my stepmother ever since. But my step-sister is coming back from boarding school in Connecticut this year and I really don't know how to act around her. She seems pretty cool but I'm not sure.

Dear Prettystepsister,

Hmmm, is that a hint of vulnerability I hear in your tone? I have a feeling that your're afraid your sis will be getting all the attention. Tone it down a little bit and keep it cool.

Dear Gossip Girl,

Did you hear that there are gonna be 17 new juniors this year? Anyways, I'm having a party. I thought I'd take charge in organizing the beginning-of-year festivities: First day of school, 7 o'clock. Palace Hotel, vodka to be served.

Dear Anonymous,

Ooooh, 17 new juniors eh? Well we have a problem at hand; how will we give them the most loving welcome to the UES? And as for the party, I'm sure we all need some alcohol to help us remember who are still our friends and foes after a long summer. Add some tequila and sushi to the menu and we have one banging satisfying start to the year.

sightings:

E trying on 51 different Tommy Hilfiger and Giorgio Armani blazers at Niemen Marcus. Getting her new school wardrobe ready? L at Starbucks on Fifth Avenue, flirting with a cute guy who bought her a chai latte. C on her second lap around Central Park West. Too many truffles during the summer, no? M.B. dragging girlfriend through 3.1 Phillip Lim, thinking to add to that ever-growing leather jacket collection. BFF's K and B chasing K's little brother, O, on the third floor of Saks Fifth Avenue. H at baggage claim in Terminal Five, so what kept him in Prague for so long….

Okay, I've got on appointment at Elizabeth Arden Red Door Salon, but I can't wait till tomorrow. But remember, with beauty rest, thick skin and a Kate Spade bag, you might just be able to survive the first day of school….Oh who am I kidding! Without a UES Elite pass (private sales only) you'll be dead by third period.

You know you love me,

Xoxo,

Gossip Girl
