The New Jackie O

Eric Daman, the stylist for the CW hit series released a statement that Blake Lively, star of Gossip Girl, is like the Jackie O of her time". Needless to say, I beg to differ. If we're discussing the relevance of this statement within the confines of the show, I would say that Leighton Meester's character, Blair, has a much more classic style that closely resembles Jacqueline Onassis. However, Eric's statement got me to thinking who I feel is the Jackie O, style wise, of our generation. If I were to make a list, here's who would be on it:
