Accessory Trends For Fall and Beyond

We are right in the midst of autumn, with winter on the horizon.  Once Thanksgiving comes, everyone will be in full Christmas mode and soon everyone will be looking into spring after the holidays.  Let's look at what accessories we can pick up along the way that will not only add to our fall wardrobe, but take us into spring as well.  Some of these hair pieces will go along great with swimwear too!

Hair braids were a popular hairstyle worn by runway models as they debuted designer collections.  Others wore hair that varied from chic and neat to loosely put together, but what these different hairstyles had in common was they often adorned a trendy hairpiece.  Beautiful floral prints on clothing has inspired the creation of flower hair accessories. You can wear a hippie flower hairband, flower hair barrettes or flower pins.  Leather hair accessories were another popular sighting on the runway.  Flowers add an element of femininity, whereas leather adds a touch of strength and modern-day toughness to your look.  Leather embellished headbands, leather ties for braided hairstyles, and leather bands for super low ponytails were seen on runway models during fashion week.  Gold was another popular accent seen on the runway that just gives you an extra touch of luxury. Gold accented hair accessories are seen on hair clips, headbands, and barrettes.  Any of these gold accented hair accessories can be added to a sleek hairstyle.  For a more loosely worn hairstyle, you can add gold flecks to add a touch of decadence to that vintage look.  For a more youthful yet luxurious look, a jeweled headband featuring gems and ornaments is another option.  For those minimalist days, even a black headband can be a great add on for that modern look and will go well with most anything.  These latest hair accessory trends can be worn from now through spring.  Finding the right hair accessory can make you shine that much brighter on the street and on the beach.


Chokers have been popular for fall, but it may not be something that you can wear into spring.  Don't worry, there is still plenty of time to add this accessory to your wardrobe and get a lot of use from it.  Chokers can range from the indulgent to the classic.  Chain chokers can be worn casually or elegantly.  It is a versatile accessory that suits various styles.  The punk style choker with spikes and plenty of other hardware is for the more daring woman.  This style of choker tends to make an extra loud statement and can be mixed up with either a sexy or soft outfit.  The choker is not limited to drawing attention to just your neck because if you select a choker featuring a long center strip it will serve more as body jewelry.  Experiment with different chokers and see what works best for you.  Again, the versatility of the choker allows you to mix it up, so you should expect to get a lot of use from this one accessory. 

As we are busy shopping and adding clothing and shoes to our wardrobes, we must not forget the little extras like accessories that can add an extra punch to our look during the current and upcoming seasons.  If you have never tried a hair or neck accessory, I encourage you to do so.  You might be surprised how good it looks on you and it is another way to expand your fashion horizons.
