Get blue contacts. Blue eyes are by far Rory's most prominent feature. This is not a must, though. If you already have blue eyes, rock them! Rory's eyes are a bright, crystal blue, so buy fluorescent light bulbs and avoid places with awful lighting if you can. If you don't want to wear contacts, don't worry! Rory has innocent and wide eyes, which you can still imitate through make-up.
Dye your hair brown. Having brown hair makes you look serious and mature, and you would not look too showy, which isn't Rory's style. You could even use a brown wig.
Wear less obvious make-up. Rory's make-up is light and feminine, and it's not always visible that she's wearing it. She really likes lipgloss, so finding one you like can help you look more like Rory. Wearing black or brown mascara could also help you make your eyes look bigger, which helps with the Rory look.
Look neat and clean. Being presentable contributes to the impression of brains and beauty, which Rory has and values. She also always keeps her appearance neat and tidy.
Dress fashionably and girlishly, but with a conservative slant. Try to keep your outfits quite simple, and don't be materialistic. Rory doesn't really seem to care about having the most expensive clothes. She has a classic look, which would definitely be taken away if she began shopping at only designer places. Buy plain colored, button down shirts, slacks, and a few funky shirts for the weekends. Be creative, but conservative. Be light on the accessories, but add something different for a soft touch. For example, Rory likes to add scarves and leggings/stockings to add something unique to her simplistic style.
Adopt some of her mannerisms. This would complete the Rory Gilmore look, or attitude. Get straight A's, or at least the best grades you can. Rory is academically successful. Rory is extremely intelligent, and would never let her grades drop. Work to form excellent study habits. If possible, apply to an exclusive private school. This isn't necessary, but it would help. Be organized and punctual. Set both short-term and long-term goals for yourself - daily, weekly, monthly, etc. Learn to drive. Rory likes to drive a car, that strengths her independence. Read a work of literature a week. If you are choosing novels that are more trying and/or longer in length and have a busy schedule, going for one a month is a good idea. Have also an easier, enjoyable book to alternate with if you need a break from a more difficult book. Rory tends to read many classics: a couple of examples from the show are: The Art of War (one relatively short in length, by the way), Moby Dick. She also goes through a phase of choosing Russian authors. But any books with some kind of substance will do. Don't forget to carry around the book! Keep busy by studying, volunteering, working, watching movies, and spending time with family and friends. Drink coffee. On evenings, drink decaf. If you don't like coffee, try a chai latte or green tea when you visit your local coffee shop. (In fact, Alexis Bledel, the actress that plays Rory is so sick of coffee that she only drinks tea now.) Perfect your etiquette. Rory has good manners. Avoid using vulgarities and slang. Make lots of lists. Rory is always writing lists. She also makes her classic "pro-con" list to aid in decision making (eg. when she was choosing between Harvard and Yale and Princeton). Be witty and have a good sense of humor. Rory's humor is often sarcastic, and very quick. Make quips in your day-to-day life, even if others don't always get it. Learning how to Talk Like a Gilmore Girl can help you get Rory's way of making jokes down. Don't try to force Rory's sense of humor if it's not funny to you. Read more. Rory loves to read a variety of different books and genres, so you can choose any book that appeals to you. If you're reading and don't know what a word means, look it up! This will improve your vocabulary, which will make you seem more intelligent when you speak. Be nice to everyone.
