BLAKE LIVELY AND KAYLEE DEFER - BUSY FILMING "GOSSIP GIRL"

Closing out the work week with another long day on-set, Blake Lively was busy filming "Gossip Girl" in Los Angeles, CA on Friday afternoon (August 5).

Dressed in a cute pink jacket overtop a babydoll dress, the Serena van der Woodsen actress joined alongside co-star Kaylee Defer as the two shot scenes ahead of the CW show's September 26th season premiere.

According to reporte, Miss Lively returned to work after enjoying a few weeks of downtime - which she spent with new romantic interest Leonardo DiCaprio.

The burgeoning couple enjoyed together time in NYC last weekend while previously traversing around the globe with visits to Monte Carlo, Venice, and Cannes.
