Nina Garcia helps make the call on "Project Runway" about who's in and who's out.

In her new book "The One Hundred: A Guide to the Pieces Every Stylish Woman Must Own" (Collins), she advises on what to buy and what to keep.

A well-stocked wardrobe is full of classic items that don't fall out of favor but can be tweaked to work with whatever the current trends might be. In the introduction, she calls classics from the cocktail ring to Converse sneakers "the pieces that have stood the test of time."

So, what will Garcia - with her new day job as fashion director at Marie Claire - be wearing this fall? She e-mailed her top 10 looks to the AP:

-The little black dress. "It's always reliably chic. It can take you from classic to dangerously sexy this season."

 -Statement jewelry. Garcia predicts a big comeback in Art Deco cuffs, chunky necklaces, gothic rosaries - which can all be layered.
