It's the wild plots, beloved couples, and, yeah, adolescent angst that teen movies and TV shows are often known for. But my favorite thing of all? The impeccable fashion, of course!
E!
While the characters don't always dress like actual teenagers, the looks are definitely memorable.
Warner Bros.
Take Cher and Dionne from Clueless, who basically set the stage for all fashionable teen characters to come. Who could forget their iconic plaid 'fits?!
Paramount
Then there's Cheryl Blossom from Riverdale, aka the queen of fashion. Talk about having a signature color!
The CW
Who could forget Laura Winslow from Family Matters? She served us A+ look after look.
Warner Bros.
Or maybe you grew up worshipping Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl for her ability to make even her school uniform look cute?
