If there's one character from the original Gossip Girl whose fashion sensibilities still fit with today's style, it's Lily van der Woodsen. The über-elegant Upper East Sider favored classic, timeless pieces and monochrome outfits and epitomized quiet luxury before it was even a closely tracked trend. So it's hardly a surprise that Kelly Rutherford's personal style continues to reflect much of her character's supremely chic sensibilities, even a decade after the original series finale.
And if Rutherford's latest look featuring a very UES-appropriate crossbody bag wasn't enough to pique your attention, consider this: Strathberry, the British brand behind the design, is also favored by both Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle.
Keep reading to see how Rutherford styled Strathberry's caramel Mosaic Nano bag. Then shop a few more of our favorite pieces from the brand, including a raffia basket tote that's absolutely perfect for summer weekends in the Hamptons—you know you still love it. Right, Gossip Girl?
