Three Accessories to Transition Your Style to Fall

Accessories make all the difference and they’ve been my main tool to transition looks to fall without the obvious chunky knits, ponchos and boots that seem too heavy right now.

The Right Hat

A felt or wool hat is probably my favorite way to change up a look and help the slow wardrobe transition from summer to fall. I wear these hats year round, but they seem especially fitting as we head into autumn.

Urban Outfitters always has a decent selection of affordable wool hats that I shop like this panama hat in black or tan and I’m still loving these fisherman style hats, especially in copper. My favorite hats are from Lack of Color–I usually shop these at local shops like Retail Therapy or Marie La Mode–and even find them carried at shops in other cities where I find the style I’m looking for (and avoid shipping costs.)

An Olive Jacket

I’ve found a few olive jackets that I need in my life and this is one of them. It’s light enough now to toss over a white linen tank and easy enough to layer come colder weather.

I’m a fan of this classic jacket silhouette and also love the boxy, cropped versions. This Madewell version is 40% off and I think I need to add this $49 slouchy corduroy jacket to my closet now.

A Perfect Transitional Bag

I found this Chloe bag on major sale a few months ago and served me well this summer–but I keep reaching for it to fall-ify my summery looks this past month. The tan hue is my go-to fall color with accessories as you with the bag and the shoes!

The mini version of this bag, Chloe Mini Marcie, comes in a handful of colors I love for fall, but it ain’t cheap! This budget-friendly hobo bag is though and it’s such a versatile bag to use throughout the season. And this crossbody bag comes in four colors, and just $49–a go-to bag for tailgating, cider mill visits and other activities to keep your hands-free!
