Essential Accessories for Girls for this Autumn-Winter
When summer transforms into autumn and winter, a whole new vibe can be felt everywhere. People swap walks in the park for sitting by their windows and listening to the rain. We have pumpkins, coffee in new, spicy flavours, and we wrap up warm even when we’re in the house. Some may hate this time of year because of how cold and dark it can be, but it’s the perfect time of year to rest, recharge, and re-calibrate. It’s crazy how many women still believe they must be switched on and achieving 24/7, but this is all down to the old patriarchal way of getting things done. Just like our own inner cycle, the way the season’s cycle should be paid attention to so you can feel great and reorganise your priorities!
Below, there are a number of essential accessories that women are sure to love this autumn/winter 2019. Take a look, whether you’re looking for something to send to somebody as a Christmas gift hint, or you just want to treat yourself, you should find something here.
1. A Deep Purple Jacket or Coat
All over catwalks models have strutted about in deep purple jackets and coats. Deep purple is the most gorgeous colour – it can add a pop of bright to your winter wardrobe, and there are many positive associations with the colour purple to boot. If you need a new jacket, you could send this to somebody close to you with a note about it being one of your favourite genuine gifts for her – hopefully, they’ll take the hint!
2. A Trench Coat
A trench coat never ever goes out of style. You could buy one this year and you’d be bound to use it for many years to come. You can wear just about anything underneath it, and it always helps to create that ‘uber chic’ vibe.
3. Mini Bags
If you’re the kind of person that needs a huge bag to fit all of your bits and bobs in, you can probably ignore this one. However, there’s no denying that mini bags have become all kinds of popular over the last few months. When we say mini, we mean mini – some of these are just about big enough to fit some spare change and a lipstick in (if you’re lucky). If you want to make a statement (and perhaps if you have somebody else with you to carry the essentials) this bag could help.
4. Statement Chokers
A choker can look great with the right kind of outfit; blouses, dresses, even just t-shirts. It all depends on the style you buy. You can buy faux leather cord chokers, chunky chain chokers, and all kinds of other styles depending on your preferences. Many people are absolutely loving the chunky choker look these days!
5. Fancy Hair Accessories
Fancy hair accessories can make or break a look. Oversized clips for example, can be used to push back one side of your hair for interest. This is one of our gifts for her ideasthat won’t break the bank! You could even select a fancy hair clip that is personalised with a word of their choice. Pretty, studded headbands and even knotted headbands are also hugely popular!
6. Socks to Show Off
You might not be used to showing off your socks, but now is the time to get used to it. Wearing socks with a pair of barely there heels can work really well, or even having them just peeking over the top of your favourite boots. When you buy socks next, make sure they are the kind you don’t mind showing off. Fun colours and patterns can work amazingly well with the right outfit, and at a little something different. It can be weird trying to get used to it at first, but playing with different sock styles and patterns in your outfits can actually be a lot of fun!
7. Utility Boots
A good pair of utility boots could be another great hint you send out if you know somebody isn’t very good at finding genuine gifts for her. Utility boots are perfect for winter. They keep your feet warm, perfectly finish off just about any outfit, and can be great on numerous types of terrain. You won’t need to worry whether it’s raining or snowing in a good pair of utility boots. When we say they can be worn with any outfit, we mean it. Throw them on with your favourite long skirt or short skirt and a chunky knit jumper. Alternatively, rock them with your favourite t-shirt tucked into jeans.
8. A Fedora
Want to add the cool factor to your next outfit? A fedora could be just the ticket. Not only will you spend less time styling your hair, you will love how you can channel Johnny Depp just by throwing on a hat. Who doesn’t want to look like the King of Grunge himself styled them?
9. A Blanket Wrap Scarf
A blanket scarf could be the perfect accessory to personalise if you’re looking for an autumn/winter gift for somebodyelse or just looking to treat yourself. It could be another great gift that you send hints about too, as it makes the perfect genuine gift for her. There are so many ways to wear. It can be effortlessly draped over shoulders, wrapped around multiple times to protect from chill, or you can get creative with it.
10. A Waist Belt
Where would we be without a trusty waist belt? If you don’t currently have one, now is the time to invest. A waist belt can help you to bring outfits together and make them look more cohesive. Not only that, it can help you to show off your shape in an outfit that may look otherwise baggy or unflattering. You could potentially wear it over a jumper – some fashionistas even like to wear it over a coat.
These 10 essential accessories will make sure you look chic all autumn/winter long!
