When it comes to dressing for fall, nothing ushers in the season with style like fun accessories. The cooler weather allows you to fashionably layer items of clothing. However, fashion diversity doesn't have to end there. Today's hot look for fall suggests that load up with plenty of accessories to go with your layered look.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Wrap your neck in luxurious warmth when you add one or more scarves to your fall outfits. You can accessorize a business suit with a silk scarf, or combine a short and long scarf of different fabrics to create a casual, chic look. If you really want to splurge on yourself or someone you love, invest in a cashmere scarf for the ultimate in softness.

  2. Step 2

    Buy layered necklaces to achieve a distinctive look for fall. Chains of different lengths, semi-precious gemstones and especially beaded necklaces make quite a statement when combined together.

  3. Step 3

    Discover belts, one of the most popular fall accessories in recent years. Large belts look great when paired with big tops and sweaters, while thin belts nicely accent a dress or a blouse worn over slim pants.

  4. Step 4

    Give your fall wardrobe a helping hand with sleek gloves. Form fitting leather or suede gloves can be the perfect accessory, especially of you wear them in bold colors, like red. Lined with cashmere or fleece, gloves can also provide much needed for warmth on those cool, autumn days.

  5. Step 5

    Frame your entire body when you choose to wear a soft shawl. A shawl makes a wonderful accessory for fall, especially if you're dressing in the popular layered look of the season underneath.

  6. Step 6

    Dress your laptop before heading out the door with a computer bag. Many of us carry one to and from work these days and computer bags have come a long way since the days of plain, black leather. An added plus is that may bags come with additional side compartments for storing cell phones and other essentials.

  7. Step 7

    Find the latest in fall accessories online from Elle.com (see Resources below).

Tips & Warnings
  • Don't forget about one of the most important accessories for fall--an umbrella. In fact, plan to buy one for the car, one for the office or school and one for home.
  • Sunglasses are important too. More than an accessory, sunglasses protect your eyes from strong sunlight, especially the glare from snow.
