Blake Lively: Hair Icon On-the-Go

Quite the frequent flyer, Blake Lively was spotted clutching her favorite pillow as she arrived at LAX Airport on Thursday night (November 12).

The “Gossip Girl” actress has been busy splitting duties in between work on her hit CW show, as well as a new movie called “The Town”.

Meanwhile, it seems that Miss Lively’s Serena Van der Woodsen character has taken over as the biggest hair-related inspiration since Jennifer Aniston’s role as Rachel Greene.

“It’s aspirational hair,” NYC salon owner John Barrett tells The New York Times, adding that clients, “don’t just want the hair, they want the life.”

Commenting on her highly-requested hairdo, Lively said, “I didn’t really realize the extent of it,” Blake told the NYT of her hair’s popularity, although she did note that “it’s hard to ignore when fashion forerunners like Vogue staffers routinely approach at events and fixate on her hair.”

“That’s always kind of odd, but unbelievably flattering,” Blake confesses.
