Well, hello upper East Side, have you heard 'Birkin Mother' aka, Kelly Rutherford has been absolutely serving? If you ever stumble upon a picture of Kelly Rutherford, and think 'Is this a scene from Gossip Girl?', rest assured, you're not alone. Her personal style almost exactly mirrors her iconic portrayal of past role, Lily Van Der Woodsen, exuding an undeniable air of old-money elegance. It seems you can take her out of the show but you can't take the show out of her.
The masterpiece that is Rutherford's style has once again taken centre stage on social media, thanks to her front row presence at Paris' latest couture fashion week. She effortlessly embodies the quintessential image of a rich New York mum-perpetually chic, comfortably elegant, and never seen without a bag, most notably a Hermès Birkin. Adding to her iconic status, Rutherford used her personal collection of Birkins while filming for Gossip Girl, even naming her son Hermès – does she get any more iconic?
If you're a stranger to Rutherford's Instagram, let me enlighten you on her gallery of opulence. Captivating her audience with her religious postings of mirror 'fit pics' as she so casually poses in high luxury outfits as she goes to walk her dog in the upper east side of New York. Staying true to a monochromatic palette of muted beige, blacks and whites, with occasional appearances of animal patterns.
Never one to over look the power of accessories, Rutherford ensures that a handbag or pair of sunglasses is a constant presence, adding an extra touch of cinematic allure. It's the theatrics of styling that have Kelly Rutherford having fun with brands like The Row and Maria de la Orden by accessorising and putting on a visual spectacle for all of us to revel in.
Without further ado, Kelly Rutherford's more iconic looks.
