Every two weeks, I bring you a style mash-up of two popular pop culture figures. This week, I’m mixing an ultra-popular TV fashion icon with a kids cartoon character who’s a bit lesser known.

This week, I’m combining the cheerful, yet laid-back vibe of Kuki Sanban (also known as Numbuh 3) from Codename: Kids Next Door with the sophisticated, edgy style of Serena Van Der Woodsen from Gossip Girl. Though the two have little in common, you’ll be surprised at how their styles combine.

Numbuh 3 is often seen in an oversized green sweater, black leggings, green socks, and black and white sneakers. As a cheerful fan of Rainbow Monkeys, it’s no surprise she would approve of bright colors. She’s also the most feminine member of Sector V, so she loves girly details, such as pink and ruffles, even though she wears a somewhat tomboyish outfit.

As the protagonist of one of TV’s all-time most fashionable shows, there is no denying that Serena has envious style. She likes to wear unexpected pieces together, such as a sparkly blazer with bright pants. She also likes to elevate her looks with quirky accessories, whether it’d be embellished bags and/or layered necklaces.

Now, I will show you three Serena x Kuki outfits with unexpected details and splashes of color.

Numbuh 3 x Serena Look 1

Numbuh 3 loves her green sweatshirt — it’s her signature outfit. Serena, on the other hand, mixes it up. Above you see her wearing a brown leather jacket and red bracelets.

Both of these girls love tights: Serena tends to wear tights with skirts and dresses, and Numbuh 3 looks like she’s wearing a dress with tights above.
