Trends have their time and place, but investing in timeless fashion pieces will always serve you well.
Just ask stylist Cristina Ehrlich , who works with celebrities including Jane Fonda, Tina Fey, Natasha Lyonne, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Laura Dern.
“I typically gravitate towards classic looks with a timeless twist. I’m not a trend girl so much; I’m more about investment pieces, filling in the gaps with something fresh like a crisp white shirt, a new pair of shoes, a great bag or a coat,” Ehrlich tells Page Six Style.
As such, we asked the veteran wardrobe whiz — who recently teamed up with luxury resale platform Vestiaire Collective on an exclusive closet sale — to recommend five fall fashion essentials that are well worth your shopping dollars and guaranteed to stand the test of time.
From outerwear to accessories, shop them all below.
A classic blazer
“Everyone needs a classic blazer in their closet for fall. If you’re more adventurous, you can go with a fun color, but keeping it classic with black is always great as well. I love the vintage Chanel blazer in my Vestiaire Collective closet, as a Chanel tweed is such a timeless classic for the fall season.”
“As the weather gets colder, a hat can not only be an accessory, but also a practical addition to your look. Pairing an outfit with a fun brimmed hat can really elevate it.”
“A nice long wool coat is an essential for fall. I recommend steering towards neutral tones and colors like blacks and tans, as you can pair them atop almost any look.”
“There’s nothing more timeless than a longer-length skirt. You can pair it with a simple stiletto, or with tall boots for the fall. I love to style my skirts with a belt on top to give them some shape in the waist.”
