  • The Rhythm Section actress Blake Lively posted a series of throwback Emmys photos of herself from 10 years ago.

  • In the photos, she's wearing a plunging red gown and is absolutely glowing with her mom and Leighton Meester by her side.

  • Blake and Leighton basically look the same in current photos as they did during their Gossip Girl days.


Blake Lively was not among the many celebs attending the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards Sunday night, but she didn't miss out on the fun entirely. (Btw, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend were also MIA.) The Rhythm Section actress shared a few throwback Emmys photos on Instagram and took fans on a walk down memory lane—all the way to 2009.

It was a very gorgeous and glowy walk through Blake's photos of herself attending the Primetime Emmys 10 years ago. Blake's mom, Elaine Lively, and her former Gossip Girl co-star Leighton Meester also appear in the pictures—all looking glam. In the snaps, Blake wore a red gown with a plunging neckline, because Serena Van Der Woodsen. In 2009, it was prime Gossip Girl time, and she played It girl/high school student Serena. (She was already practicing her age-defying powers in her early 20s.)

Blake may look like she's pulling an Adaline IRL, but behind the scenes she works hard to maintain her fit physique. Blake joked on Instagram that staying in shape takes more than "scrolling through Instagram and wondering why you don't look like all the bikini models." In fact, after giving birth to her second baby with husband Ryan Reynolds, the actress lost 61 pounds working with celeb trainer Don Saladino. "Thanks @donsaladino for kickin my A double S into shape. 10 months to gain, 14 months to lose. Feeling very proud 💪😁💪."

To get fit, Blake worked out with Saladino five to six times every week. Sessions included cardio bursts and strength training, per Well+Good.

Blake's workouts aren't always so intense, though. "I dance, I ride bicycles, I hike. I go out and exercise in nature. I find ways to be physical where you're also having an experience because I'm very experience-oriented," she told Extra.

Good genes aside, Blake also keeps her skin healthy with a handful of under $20 products in her skincare routine. The actress shared snaps from her super-organized makeup and skincare collection this spring. Blake revealed she has CeraVe Sunscreen Face Lotion, Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm, and Caudalie Beauty Elixir on hand.

XOXO... Gossip Girl reunion?
