These Staple Fall Accessories Are a Must-Have

With seasons, the style and articles of clothing we tend to buy change. In the summer, bright colors and florals are a constant theme in fashion. In winter, the style shifts more towards dark colors. Pastels are the predominant colors in spring. We are in the midst of fall, and people are now dressing in earth tones. But what about accessories? There are quite a few staple fall accessories that are must-haves for girls to have in their closets.

First and foremost, we have the bootie. What fall outfit would be complete without the bootie? This staple shoe is perfect with almost any type of outfit, whether it be jeans, leggings, or a dress. They go with both casual outfits and formal outfits, so you can’t really go wrong with having a pair in your closet. Booties are the perfect shoe for comfort and style, and nothing gets better than that! Plus, if you’re short like me, all booties have a slight heel, giving you the perfect subtle boost for everyday style.

Denim has been a reliable part of all outfit styles for every season for as long as I can remember. But one specific denim item has become a staple fall accessory: the jean jacket. A jean jacket is the perfect accessory for fall weather. It is likely to get a little more chilly out in the fall, so a jean jacket is a great way to cover up and get warm while still looking stylish and avoiding looking frumpy.

While walking around campus, you’ve probably noticed a lot more people wearing mini backpacks than usual; they’re the latest staple accessory for fall.

These mini backpacks are great for a casual day, a special occasion, traveling and even a girls’ night out. This accessory does it all and works for just about anything and everything.
