Let us not mince words. THERE IS NO WAY LEIGHTON MEESTER WOULD WEAR THOSE SHOES WITH THAT OUTFIT UNLESS CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGATED TO DO SO. She just...would not. She would not.

You know, like....I don't know. Jeans? A cute, casual skirt? Emerald green shortie shorts and a white cotton tee shirt? (That's what I used to wear MY Reeboks with, back when I used to take gym class and Luke Perry was young.) I am totally willing to accept the renaissance of the high top, but let's not fool ourselves into thinking Blair Waldorf would actually do this of her own volition. And it's written all over her face:
