You might not be able to get your hands on her pricey vintage fedora (or have a dreamy date by your side) to complete your look, but according to celeb stylist Natalie Saidi, if you invest in anything this month, it should be a similar jewel-toned, wide-brim hat of your own. 

If you need further proof that an investment hat will go with, oh, everything you own, Natalie shared her expert styling tips.

Vanessa Hudgen's stylist is all about mixing highs and lows—investing in one expensive piece that will upgrade any and all of your looks. "Hats are definitely on my top-three list of favorite accessories. I think they can be worn from day to night so easily—and not to mention, it turns your worst hair day into something great," said the stylist. If you're going for a Gigi-inspired weekend look, borrow your guy's undies, grab your favorite skinnies, add a cropped tee and, of course, don't forget that hat.
