While we tend to associate novelty prints with kitschy upholstery and twee mid-century vintage clothing, Blair Leighton Meester)’s Season 5 premiere look made us want to reconsider our prejudices. After all, if the Queen B herself is willing to to take a walk on the wild side with this leafy gown  and wear to a royal gala, no less!  then maybe we just haven’t been looking in the right places.

We went digging for some similarly quirky prints to see if we could find something that Blair herself would wear  imagining she was on a budget  and we think we came up with a pretty exhaustive list. Remember to exercise caution when wearing one of these head-turning pieces and tone down the rest of the outfit accordingly.
