Seder Anything - Part 3 of 3 - An Unfortunate Annulment

Cyrus and Eleanor are hosting their first Seder, complete with Cyrus' "Shmutz Happens" apron.

It's hard to believe he's a highly successful lawyer, but he's the man Serena seeks out to help get her marriage annulled.



The olive gray of his jacket, coupled with ivory shirt and periwinkle tie, suits him down to the ground.

Eleanor breaks out the shiny, unflattering fabrics again, but at least this time it isn't a neutral.



I do love her pearl necklaces, and her gray slacks are very flattering.

And thank you God, she finally found an outfit that isn't shiny! Eleanor truly looks like a million bucks.  Or maybe a billion Waldorf bucks.



Love the black sheath, with the fitted black jacket.  It is a bit shiny, but the shine is understated enough that I will give her a free pass.  In addition, the rock crystal necklace is a stunning, attention-getting piece that screams "look at me!"

Onto another stylish mother, we have Lily, who is still trying to hide her pregnancy.  Or rather, Kelly Rutherford's pregnancy.  Tell Rufus--it'll make dressing a lot easier.

Gorgeous, luxurious gray cashmere.  Lily looks stunning in this color.  Love the extra pop of the amethyst jewelry and the purple bag.

That is a lot of necklace.  Like Eleanor loves her shiny seperates, Lily can't stay away from the overblown jewelry.  



There's a germ of a good idea inside of the necklace, but it's just too much--too much size on the pendant, too many strands, too many jewels.  But j'adore her chunky topaz earrings.

Rufus, as usual, goes the opposite direction of his lady love.



That horrible parchment-colored, wrinkly shirt is just plain ugly.  And that brown coat does not help his case.

Serena, the wife of the hour, returns from Spain sans husband Gabriel, eager to obtain an annulment.



This outfit of Serena's is the cream of what she does best--a simple pair of skinny jeans, a cute tunic, with a cropped leather jacket.  Even her hair is just the right shade of bedhead.

Even better, I love what she wears to lawyer up.



Sequins are Serena's best friend, so not a surprise, she dons them in cardigan form, like armor.  Plus, her black tunic patterned with feathers.  And she even found time to brush her hair!  Sort of.  It's no season one coif, but at this point we'll take what we can get.

The best part of this outfit though, is the awesome blue trench she wears as a topper.

Serena's husband Gabriel reappears on the UES, and he brings his golden boy good looks. Why does she want to divorce him?



Oh, right. Because he doesn't have a tailor.  That suit jacket just hangs on him, and the color palette is just plain boring.

The best part of this outfit is the plaid scarf, with its blues, blacks and just the pop of green.





Dan, the erstwhile rival for Serena's affections, unfortunately spends 10% of the episode in the same hideous brown coat I begged Eric Daman to replace a few weeks ago.

And the rest of the episode, he wears a cater-waiter uniform, with more flair than he wears a lot of his clothes.

Let's review: Dan looks better in a uniform that in clothes he's chosen of his own volition. Ouch.
