Gas prices are rising and driving a car is increasingly tapping into my fashion funds. In order to appease both my transportation and style needs I obviously look to Gossip Girl for guidance-- that would be your first move too right? People StyleWatch has caught Leighton Meester's character Blair Waldorf on two occasions ditching the town car for a beach cruiser bicycle, and looking just as chic as usual. While living in a city full of hills and traffic doesn't make biking everywhere feasible, a recent biking excursion while in France had me wishing that San Francisco was a bike friendly city, and yearning for my college campus where no doubt I will adopt this means of transportation. Check out People StyleWatch to see more of what's going on on the set of Gossip Girl and your other favorite shows that can't return soon enough.

Consider for a moment that, according to the EPA, four million tons of textiles are sent to landfills each year. Four million tons! Now we vintage fashionistas are already doing our part to alleviate this particular problem, but there's always something more we can do, right? Maybe it's time to check out that consignment shop on your way home. Or to make sure you keep some paper shopping bags in your car for your next department store visit. Or to find a tailor and re-fashion a dress you were going to trash. Being green and being chic are not mutually exclusive. And vintage fashions will always carry a lower carbon footprint than any of the new eco-fashion labels. Just click the SLIDESHOW to be inspired with ten fabulous finds under $100.
