Found: A Gossip Girl–Worthy Outfit for a Zara Shopping Trip
Kelly Rutherford went for a shopping trip in New York City on Thursday, and we'd forgive you for mistaking the photo for a still from Gossip Girl circa 2007. The 49-year-old actress could have easily passed for her Upper East Side character, Lily van der Woodsen, even after 11 years.
With a Zara shopping bag in tow, Rutherford hailed a taxi in a sleek black coat, printed midi dress, knee-high suede boots, and crossbody bag. The polished, practical outfit is a look van der Woodsen definitely would have worn—except, of course, the Zara bag would have been swapped out for a Barneys bag. See her outfit below.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
