Are you wondering why Serena is smiling?  Well, our best guess is that she can barely contain her enthusiasm for the must-have handbags on tonight's Gossip Girl...

After some serious snooping, we've got the skinny on what the models will be toting during Eleanor Waldorf's fashion show.  Nancy Gonzalez handbags are the darlings from one of our very favorite retail companies, Bergdorf Goodman.  And the fabulous bags will be featured during tonight's it-show of the season.  We adore the collection, and here are some of the bags that should be on your list to make sure you are on trend with jewel tones this season.
