While Blair indulges in yet another meltdown, we cut to Serena enjoying a cosy meal with Aaron, who patronisingly informed her he was ready to be exclusive. Urgh! Blair is right, Serena wouldn't of settled for this last year, and her trying to change who she is for him is very lame, especially since he appears to have worse dress sense than the Humphrey.

Serena's outfit choice was pretty slutty and short, so normal for her, but Aaron appeared to be wearing a homemade jumper, that had holes in it. I get that you're a tortured artist A, but there's no need to make yourself look even more unattractive than you already are!

One man who knows how to dress is our Chuck, who in this instance was sporting a navy blue night robe and was getting a shave my his maid. I kid you not, this guy is like 50 and still manages to smolder with a single glance. That smirk also means he's up to no good, as his mini-me, aka Eric was searching for answers about Bart, and why he knows so much about his personal life.

While Chuck took Eric under his wing, we were left with B reeling from the news that Cyrus and her mum were getting engaged. I loved her emerald green backless dress in this shot, combined with rumbling locks and berry lips, she looked absolutely stunning.

If she wasn't so bratty in this episode, I would have taken to her a lot more, but at least it gave us a chance to see more of her relationship with Dorota.

As Blair took off to go and feed the ducks, Dorota was too cute for words in her little red cape and her I'm A Slave 4U ringtone, as she tried to convince the stubborn teen to go home for Thanksgiving.

Meanwhile, Vanessa, Nate and Chuck were having a heart to heart, as the FBI kindly informed Nate of his father's plans, which left poor Nate with a dilemma and a few important decisions to make.

Namely, is he planning on going into the Navy?! I only ask because he looked a bit like a Sea Captain this week, what with his navel jacket and blue jumper combo.

With his best friend looking for pastures new, Chuck was back to his smarmy best as he got ready for the Van Der Bass Thanksgiving extravaganza.

Serena and Dan have a heart-to-heart about her past

This may be Chuck’s sexiest ever episode, and you know I don’t say that lightly. Aside from the gross sexual innuendo jokes with Serena, he smolders in a brown shirt, taupe waistcoat, slicked back hair and red patterned tie. Gorgeous!

Serena's dress for the occasion, aside from being very short, was bang on trend with its ruby red and mustard colouring, and teamed with a mass of beaded necklaces, was a smart style move. My only criticism was the fishnets, which looked a tad too stripperish for my liking!

Just as I was recovering from S's minor fashion faux par, in walks the waistcoat mascot demanding to know why Aaron thinks he's lying about her past. Oh dear, this is why you don't lie, Serena- it always comes back to bite you!

Dan does something pretty noble and covers for her though, and leaves looking lamer than ever in his olive coloured shirt and sad little grey waistcoat. How is it that he looks so hideous and Chuck looks smoking in his offering!?

I'd like to say it's in the genes, but Bart Bass is not one of the most attractive men on the UES, and it turns out he isn't the cleverest either, as Lily, Eric and Serena discover his secret files on all of them and promptly up sticks and leave for Brooklyn. Oh dear, a Bart Bass scorned is not someone to mess with.

Likewise, Nate Archibald standing up to his father and convincing him to go to jail, so that he and his mum could have their old life back, was pretty moving, and finally gave Nate something to do, other than standing there battering his big baby blues at every girl that catches his eye!

With all the other loose ends wrapped up, that just left little Jenny Humphrey's storyline to be completed for the week, and fresh from trying to emancipate herself and run off into the sunset with her designer dreams, it was Rufus' declaration of love which finally sent J over the edge.

Ditching the red plaid trucker dress and horrible hair, Jenny returned home. Gone was the mullet, the mass amount of make-up and the OTT clothes, to be replaced by a simpler, altogether trendier look for the 15-year-old drama queen.

A drama queen she may be, but her former BFF Vanessa is a sneaky little snake in the grass. Fresh from getting together with manbangs once more, she uncovers a letter he sent to Jenny weeks previously, and hides it so that she can have Nate all to herself. Oh-er!

So where does that leave us for next week? Well, the Vanessa-Nate-Jenny love triangle heats up a bit, Serena starts to have a few tender feelings for her ex and a tragic accident on the UES changes Chuck and Blair for ever. Check in next week for another fashion rundown with, It's A Wonderful Lie.
