    Saldana loves pieces by Isabel Marant. “She’s a talented and beautiful designer. Last year everyone had her suede boots,” she says. Saldana splurged on the coveted booties when she was in Paris last month with her sisters. “It was the only pleasure I gave myself in terms of shopping,” she says.

    “A leather jacket brings a masculine tone to a feminine outfit, so that means I can be prissy and pretty [with an outfit]. But the moment I put on a leather jacket, it balances it out,” she says.

“Today I’m dressed like a total fucking hoochie mama, and I’m loving it,” says Zoe Saldana on the way to her TONY cover shoot. The native New Yorker, who is costarring in The Words (opening September 7), says she doesn’t like to stick to just one style and doesn’t abide by fashion rules. “Whatever I wake up feeling I want to wear, even if that’s white jeans after Labor Day, I’ll wear it,” she explains. “I follow my heart with everything I do, from the choices I make in films to the books I want to read to the people I surround myself with—and the way I dress.” We asked Saldana to share what she plans to wear this fall. Scroll through our slide show to find affordable alternatives to fall fashion trends so you can snag her style.

Time Out New York: How did growing up in New York influence your style?
Zoe Saldana: I follow myself; I have my own voice. I also dress with the seasons. Every three months, I change my closet around. It doesn’t matter how big my closet is, I will always organize it as a Native New Yorker [does], where you don’t have much space and box up big sweaters and switch everything out.

Time Out New York: How is New York style different than the fashion in L.A.?
Zoe Saldana: The styles are beautiful [in L.A.]. People have their own trends and their own authentic swagger, but it’s not what I gravitate toward. Maybe if I was born and raised there, I would have warmed to it. I admire it, but I’m detached from it. I’m very visual. When I’m in New York, I walk down the street and find myself complimenting everybody. I like when people put things together because they felt like it, not because they wanted to impress someone. You can always tell when someone is dressing for other people, but I just love when people dress for themselves.

Time Out New York: Who are some of your favorite New York City designers?
Zoe Saldana: Jason Wu, Olivier Theyskens, Donna Karan, Michael Kors, Calvin Klein, Prabal Gurung and Cynthia Rowley are a few. They all truly represent the many different faces of high fashion. I feel beautiful in each of these designers. They all bring out a different side of me: chic, elegant, sophisticated, edgy, sexy, classic.

Time Out New York: What’s your everyday style like?
Zoe Saldana: I’m a jeans girl. Oh my God, I have way too many! Stacks and stacks. It’s embarrassing, but I just love jeans; I can never have enough. I love Citizens of Humanity, AG Adriano Goldschmied, but I’ll wear anything—I’m not fixated on labels. I don’t have to know the label; if they fit, great, I’m putting them on.

Time Out New York: What are some of your favorite fall trends?
Zoe Saldana: I think pencil skirts mixed with peplum jackets are making a big comeback for fall. I love pencil skirts because they are classic and chic. I think they are complementary on the body and can be worn [in the] daytime or dressed up with a cool pair of ankle boots for nighttime.
