FINALLY FALL: FAVORITE FALL ACCESORIES
I am back on the fall bandwagon this week talking about my favorite accessories for fall. A lot of these are not going to come as a big surprise because you guys know that I love scarves and I love hats. I might surprise you with a few little sneaky accessories that I have added in that you might not have considered adding to your closet this fall.
SCARVES
If I had to count the top five staples that I have in my closet at all times it would be a good t-shirt, a good pair of jeans, a blazer, scarves and hats. I will get to hats in a minute, but I wanted to start with scarves. Really, my love for scarves knows no bounds. I truly feel like a scarf can elevate any outfit and take it from ho-hum to so chic all with one simple accessory. Since it is starting to get cooler I went with a chunky knit for one of my scarves. This knit muffler is SO good that I had to get it in two different colors. Yes, the cream one is hard to keep make-up off of, but yes it is totally worth it. Don't worry though, it comes in SIX different colors.
I am also loving this dark gray option that I got to add to this cardigan and tee combo. See what I mean by elevating a basic outfit. This one is perfect if the weather is a little warmer because it is a lighter material and won't make you so hot. If you have any questions on how to wear your scarf, check out this post that I did with video tutorials on how to wear a scarf for some different ideas.
HATS
I know a lot of you guys are nervous to wear hats, and honestly so was I up until a few years ago. I finally just decided that I liked the way that hats looked on other people and that I was going to start incorporating them in to my outfits. And I have never looked back. However, since I know that a lot of you guys might not be quite ready to make the jump to hats, I have sourced a ton of my favorite beanies. I love beanies and Oxana, my hair guru, always says they are so much better for your hair then a baseball cap. One of my favorite brands of beanies is Love Your Melon. Their hats are so comfortable and well made, not super itchy like some beanies can be, and they support an amazing cause.
RUANA
What is a ruana you ask? Basically it is a fancy way of saying a style of poncho that originates from Venezuela and Columbia. I actually wore one in last Friday's post that was reversible that I absolutely love. I have already given you my spiel on why poncho's are the perfect accessory for fall, so today I went ahead and sourced a ton of amazing ruana's that I am absolutely in love with. Any of these would make a perfect addition to your fall wardrobe. I got the blue plaid one that I am wearing below at Evereve and it will be in constant rotation.

GLOVES
For my last favorite fall accessory I am throwing in one you might not think of frequently....gloves. I found the cutest finglerless gloves in Nordstrom the other day. I never really think of them as an accessory, but when I started looking at gloves for sourcing there were so many cute fingerless and convertible gloves that I had to share them. I also learned that hand warmers and arm warmers are an actual thing. I love the idea of a hand warmer for when your hands are freezing but you need to have your fingers uncovered to use your phone, help your kids with their own jackets and gloves, or basically anything that would require the use of a fine motor skill.
