20 of Blair Waldorf’s Best 'Gossip Girl' Moments

Blair Cornelia Waldorf was the ultimate Queen Bee of Constance Billard School for Girls… actually, we take that back. She ran both Constance *and * its male counterpart, St. Jude’s with an iron hand and a wardrobe to kill for. With her flock of identically-outfitted minions and golden girl BFF Serena by her side, there was nothing Blair couldn’t — and wouldn’t — do to stay on top of those Met stairs.

Now, you might not want to take too much inspiration from the conniving Miss Blair as you head back to school, but then again, she *was * a pretty strong, confident, motivated young heiress, even when she got rejected from Yale. We rounded up the best time Blair Waldorf ruled her school. Take her can-do attitude with you to your next lecture. Headbands are optional.

When she laid down the law regarding appropriate school attire. Leave your Lulus at home.
When she schemed with the best of them, often with this look on her face. Not even Uncle Jack Bass could beat Blair at her games.
When she established her dominance on the Met steps, the rightful place for a queen.
When she wasn’t afraid to tell S and Lonely Boy exactly what she thought of their hallway rendezvous.
Whenever she silenced the haters.
When she won Prom Queen, because of course she did. Her on-and-off-again BF Nate won King, because no one in *Gossip Girl * history was more blandly perfect than Nathaniel Fitzwilliam Archibald.
When she threw insane parties like the Kiss on the Lips shindig or the masquerade. Of course Blair arrived dressed to kill.
When she stood her ground against … well … basically anyone who tried to cross her. (Georgina, Vanessa, Serena, Little J … the list goes on.)
When she helped orchestrate the very public downfall of Georgina Sparks, AKA Sarah.
When she made prep school uniforms totally iconic. Who hasn’t copied a Blair outfit or five on their first day of school?!
When she put Jenny Humphrey to work, then totally didn’t invite her to the Kiss on the Lips party. (Jenny made it there eventually.)
When she was the master of the withering glance.
(Seriously though.)
When she and S proved that best friends are forever, from the hallways of private school to the college dorms. (That part didn’t work out so well for either of them, but they stayed tight regardless.)
When she made even a graduation cap look elegant. (She probably had Waldorf Designs make her an exclusive cap and gown, TBH.)
When not even a rejection letter from her dream school could stop her from taking over a new campus.
When she knew exactly what she wanted (always) and set out to get it, whether that was at Constance Billard or in her romantic life.
When she said the most Blair Waldorf thing of all, and made us love her and her gutsy attitude forever.
