The Gossip Girl reboot premiered last week, raising the question of what the Serenas and Blairs of the world might wear today for their escapades around New York. The “Teen” bag by Celine is probably a good place to start — and not just because of its name. With a thick messenger strap and vintage briefcase style, it’s got the look of an Upper East Side prep-school accessory, only for an age when textbooks can fit on a smartphone.

These sturdy Celine gladiator sandals are also an ideal New York shoe — one you could wear comfortably to walk from the steps of the Met downtown to Frenchette, or wherever the Gossip Girl cast is going these days. The addition of a gold triomphe charm on the front also adds a little flair to an otherwise bohemian style. Both Dan and Nate would approve.
