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.
“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.”
Shop the look:
“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.”
Shop the 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.”
Shop the look:
“It’s always fun to find something with a fun print. As the weather gets colder, I love to elevate a black-and-white look with a print.”
