Blair is the 17-year-old daughter in a wealthy family. She is used to luxuries in her life such as fancy shoes, elite schooling, and luxurious surroundings. Her father is a gay man who now lives in France. He comes to visit her three weeks before her birthday. She is embarrassed by the cake and attention at the restaurant until she sees the shoes that he gives her as a present. They are enough to make her forget her embarrassment.
Blair likes to control things and has bulimic tendencies. She plans to attend Yale the following year and wants to lose her virginity to her friend Nate. Blair loves old, romantic movies, especially "Breakfast at Tiffany's." She hides her vulnerabilities and focuses on revenge when she is upset. This is shown by the way she turned Serena into a social outcast when she was upset at her.
