I've gotten the same effect by doing it all in post with after effects. What i did was first duplicate the layer then apply a gaussian blur to it and set the blur amount to 30. Then i set the transfer mode of that layer to "overlay". Next adjust the opacity of that layer to taste. This should look pretty close by now. Then i would apply a saturation or color balance pluggin and adjust the individual color/saturation parameters.
This is just a guideline, it totally depends on the individual clip. If that doesn't work for you try different transfer modes to see what happens, like i said it all depends on the particular clip your working with. Another cool trick is to make a solid color layer above your video tracks and set the transfer mode to "overlay" and play with the opacity. You can get some really cool looks this way. I personally like using a gray/blueish solid or a mustard color. This technique can be done in most NLE as well. Hope that helps!
