Fashion Finatics: Trending fall accessories

Fall is here. It’s time to bring out those knee-high fur boots, knit sweaters and thick-weaved scarves…right? Nope, not in South Florida – unless you want to look like you’ve just stepped out of the sauna upon arriving to class.

So, how can you stay “fall trendy” in sunny South Florida? Simple: accessorize, accessorize, accessorize. You can stay in style this fall by accessorizing with the essentials, bags, shoes and jewelry.

Furses and crossbodies

 According to Vogue.com, crossbody handbags are very in style this fall. These bags will go well with just about any outfit. They are bigger than a clutch, but smaller than a large handbag. You can fit all of your important items in the bag and still look fabulous. Brownie points if the crossbody is suede.

As seen on the New York Fashion Week runways, suede is a very popular fall fabric and goes great with the auburn-toned leaves you wish you could find walking around campus. Vogue also mentioned that “furses” are now trendy. Furses are any purse that uses fur as the fabric. The furse makes a huge statement, so if you decide to wear this out, be prepared for all eyes to be on you.

Boots or pumps

Combat boots are here to stay. Combat boots are a hot topic during fashion week according to Vogue.com. These shoes are very fashionable, and did I say comfy? They definitely beat wearing uncomfortable 6-inch heels.

Speaking of heels, the pump is also a popular commodity on the runway this fall. These shoes can dress up any outfit. Throw them on after a long day at work, and you’re ready for a night out with friends.

Jewelry and Chokers

Jewelry is the perfect way to dress up an outfit. Whether you’re on campus, hanging with friends or going on a date, jewelry will add that extra something that will make you stand out.

According to Harpaarbuzz.com, pearls are everywhere this season. Pearl earrings, necklaces and bracelets add a nice, classy touch to your look.

Homemade accessories are proving quite stylish this season – and affordable. Consider running to Michaels and purchasing some stones you can attach to earring hooks. Not only will you look great, but you’ll also be 100 percent original.

The choker is also being recognized this fall. The choker can be found in velvet, leather, gold, metal and many other materials. Purchase your choker in the colors brown or orange to give your outfit that nice fall feel.

 

Even though we can’t experience fall like those who live up north, we can keep our fashion in season by wearing stylish fall accessories.
