Blake Lively February 2009 Vogue

In February's Vogue, Blake Lively talks about private school and her style.

"It was the only school where people were just downright mean to me," she says. "They would make fun of my clothes."

Lively says her love of offbeat fashion came from her mother, Georgia, who'd often take her to boutiques and vintage stores and tailor adult clothes to fit her.

"She just did that because she was so creative and because she didn't want me to be dressed in big T-shirts cinched with a plastic clip like all the rest of the kids," says the actress.
