10 Trendy Accessories To Take You From Summer To Autumn
Slide Nr 1
A simple recipe for an effortless autumn look? Half tried-and-true summer looks and half layering and accessorising – and if those accessories are inspired by this year’s fashion trends, all the better. From adding a few cosy items into the mix, to looking more put-together – and going for more drama – you can easily master your seasonal wardrobe transition by amping up your favourite hot-weather pieces with a few autumn-appropriate tweaks. Let’s see how.

Brighten Up – The key to a seamless summer-fall transition will always rely on layering, but instead of adding heavy bulk that’ll overwhelm your look, leave that for winter and just add a pair of tights into the mix – or better yet, a colourful pair of tights. As seen on this year’s Gucci, Ferragamo and Victoria Beckham runways, adding a pop of colour to often-muted tights is an easy (and functional) way to maintain the lively vibes of summer without catching a chill. Our advice: view the tights as an integral part of the outfit, not as a last-minute accessory. Go head-to-toe monochrome by pairing solid tights with a similar-toned dress or skirt-and-shirt set, colour-coordinate with your footwear, or make a cool patterned pair the focal point of the look by combining it with neutral hues on top.

Add Fluff – For thosewith a maximalist sensibility, the most eccentric accessory of the season happens to also be the cosiest. Fluffy bucket hats have been trending for a few years now, and they’re still hitting the stores – probably because they make seasonal accessorising a lot more fun. With their floppy shape and (faux) furry texture, fluffy bucket hats give the perfect balance of warmth and style. If you’re all for making a statement, just wear your (preferably printed) fuzzy hat on top of everything else – think of it as a revived Y2K cherry on top. If you’re going for a cleaner, more versatile look, on the other hand, stick to solids, tone down any other accessories, and choose a nude-coloured bucket hat to work as the ‘it’ piece of your outfit.

Get The Boot – The start of autumn also marks the beginning of boot season. They not only keep you feeling warm, but also looking chic with minimal effort. Before you start dusting off any pair of boots, however, listen to what the fashion gods (and designers) are saying: heeled, flat or cowboy, this year’s all about the knee-high style. Besides keeping your feet and legs toasty and dry, they’re also incredibly easy to pair with summer wardrobe staples. Whether your style is classic and minimalist or bright-coloured streetwear, you can pair them with a midi denim skirt, a flowy slip dress, cargo pants, Bermuda shorts or even a linen set. You won’t feel cold, but you’ll look cool.

Make A Shawl Call – During the first few weeks of autumn, when temperatures are still a bit high for full-on sweaters, layering with a wool cardigan or a blanket scarf might be too much and feel too hot. Make the summer-fall transition with an oversized shawl instead. This uber-versatile item gives just the right amount of warmth, and the zillion ways of wearing it make it the perfect on-the-go accessory for nearly any occasion: pick a silky or cashmere shawl to wear as an asymmetrical poncho, cinch it to your waist with a belt, wear it as a scarf, or just go for the traditional look by draping it over your shoulders for a timeless preppy look.

Puff It Out – Switch your summer straw bags and beach totes for one of this year’s biggest bag trends: quilted, puffy bags à la Maison Margiela. Not that they’ll actually make you feel warm, but their padded, pillowy effect goes hand in hand with the season of comfort, and your look will instantly look a couple degrees cosier. Taking inspiration from high-end designer versions, your best bet would be to opt for a solid neutral colour bag that matches the pieces in your current wardrobe, to maximise versatility. However, we also advocate tapping into your playful side with a statement colour-block option that’ll add contrast to the usual muted earthy tones of autumn style. Feeling crafty? Make your own!

Go Dutch – What flip-flops are to summer, clogs are to fall… this year, at least, when this ‘70s fashion staple is having a major moment thanks to the latest collections by Chloé, Ferragamo, Bottega Venetta and a few more. From jeans and a tee to a slip-on dress, and even worn with cosy socks, there’s no incorrect way to don these kicks, but if you’re still in doubt, consider them a stand-in for sneakers – after all they’re as comfortable and versatile, and the right pair can even look a bit more elevated. Don’t see yourself wearing a chunky, funky pair of clogs? Opt for this classic minimalist version instead.

Buckle Up – Cinch your autumn looks with this resurrected trend: statement belts. However, don’t see them necessarily as oversized and dazzling (although you certainly could). This season, ‘statement’ refers to the way you wear the belt to accessorise your look, whether you’re adding more texture, colour or structure – the idea being that the belt is purely decorative (although if it’s also holding your trousers up, it’s a double check). Just make sure your belt is not simply a practical element of your outfit, but a central focus to exaggerate the final look. Styles go from classic to skinny, Y2K boho and chain, and you can wear them to either cinch a flowy midi dress, blazer or coat, or to embellish your low-rise bottoms – either way, you’re golden.

Stack It – Most of the time, what your carefree summer look needs to evolve to the warm tones of autumn is simply a dainty addition – and if the number one rule for fall style works for clothes, there’s no reason it wouldn’t work for jewellery, too: Layer up! From ear cuffs to rings, necklaces and bracelets, stacking up is the biggest trend of the season. This year’s styles are all about the ‘more is more’ approach, so layer to the max in different colours, shapes and sizes. If you’re more on the sleek side, instead of wearing a bunch of pieces all together, opt for Cleopatra-inspired thick cuffs, chunky chokers and XL-sized pendants that’ll give the same bold effect in a more edited way. This bold ribbed choker, a fun coral branch cuff, or an elegant set of rings might serve as inspiration.

Go Skinny – While every autumn style cycle has resorted to classic scarves as part of the equation, this year in particular has revived a ‘00s version of this cold-weather staple: skinny scarves. Impractical? Probably. But in the world of fashion, those random accessories are the best kind – and you won’t need thick, bulky scarves until late autumn anyway, right? This new rendition, mostly seen during Copenhagen Fashion Week, as well as in Celine and Miu Miu’s shows, has gone viral because the fabrics used give a particularly chic touch to any look (think metallic trims and silk instead of kitschy knits). Our favourites? This barely-there scarf or this louder option – which could also work as a headband or tie for whenever you want to switch things up. 2004 Kate Moss would be proud.

Add Drama – Make-up looks will always help set the mood and work as a seasonal accessory just as much as clothes do. From a dewy sun-kissed skin for summer to darker tones and winged eyeliner for winter, our beauty routine has the same power as the rest of our look, and it’s the simplest way to face the season transition – literally. While tweaks like swapping your gel cleanser to a hydrating one, switching lightweight moisturisers to something heavier, or cutting back on exfoliation will all help prep your skin for the dips in temperature, fall makeup trends favour the season’s vibe and colours. This year’s include caramel tones, boldly lined lips, thick eyeliner and matte finishes. That’s an entire autumn look in one little cosmetic bag.
