6 Seasonal Accessories To Wear In Autumn
As summer fades and autumn rears its leafy head, it’s in with the new seasonal accessories, out with the old flipflops. Celebrate the season of leaves with these gorgeous autumnal items!
1. Mismatch Tortoise Resin Earrings, And Other Stories
Autumn foliage comes in a range of beautiful shapes and sizes. These statement earrings capture the asymmetrical charm of leaves fluttering in October air.
Equal parts quirky and cool, they’d work well dressed down or up – an asset to any stockpile of seasonal accessories. They’ve got that off-duty artist strolling through Central Park kind of vibe.
We’d suggest pairing with a cute knit in mossy green or black, Sophia Loren flicks and a messy bun. So chic.

2. Brown RI Monogram Scarf, River Island
If you’re on a budget, seasonal accessories that combine beauty with practicality are the dream. Autumn can be a difficult season to dress for, with weather about as dependable as a Magic 8 Ball. This scarf is a total steal.
Not too heavy, not too light, it’s ideal for the in-between season. It’s got that laidback lux feel, with a rich brown monogram print that looks more Gucci than high street.
Wear to bonfires, funfairs and fireworks – all those magical Autumn events. There is no outfit this scarf can’t elevate. Mulled cider optional extra.

3. ALDO Asalin Gold Snake Ring, ASOS
Autumn is the most extroverted of seasons. It’s bold and bright, lit by flares of golden sunlight and shimmering trees. Capture its vivid grandeur with this serpentine attention-grabber.
A great statement piece, it will inject your seasonal collection with a little bohemian glamour. Channel original sorceress Stevie Nicks as you do your autumn thing, leaves and hair billowing, a sparkling snake climbing your (middle) finger.
Rock with jeans and a tee for everyday fun or vamp up that simple cocktail dress still marooned on its hanger.

4. Captain’s Cap, H&M
No haul of seasonal accessories is complete without a great hat. Come summer, they protect us from harsh rays; come the colder months, they’re a stylish way to stay warm and dry.
This elegant take on the nautical trend manages to be striking yet versatile – a rare feat. The black wool blend will go with almost everything, whilst a silky band of rope, knotted at either end, gives it high fashion edge.
A slick of red lipstick, winter coat + this hat = queen of fierce autumn style.

5. Metal Hexagonal Sunglasses, Topshop
Just because summer’s over, doesn’t mean the sun won’t come out to play. Your seasonal accessories should include a great pair of shades to shield your eyes from autumnal sun.
It’s the perfect excuse to try a lighter tint, as the glare is generally less intense in autumn than in its sister season, summer. These pink-tinged sunnies are just the cutest.
Made for people-watching on a park bench/in coffee shop windows, sipping your pumpkin spice latte and feeling autumnal.

6. Leather Shopper Bag, Mango
Most of us store our lives in our handbags, so when we pick our next tote/moveable storage unit, we’re looking for a paragon of durable style. Not asking much, right?
This muted beauty is the smart choice for autumn. Available in four on point shades, our favourite is khaki. Finely constructed but roomy enough for all your books and snacks, it will blend seamlessly with your autumnal wardrobe.
Match with gold jewellery, a belted cardigan and slouchy boots for grown-up cold weather loveliness.
