Every Chic Dresser Is Wearing These 3 Accessory Trends With Jeans Right Now
Shop the most denim-friendly accessories of late 2026.
Season after season, jeans are an indisputable constant. What fluctuates is what people wear them with. And who do we all look to for styling inspiration? Chic celebrities are a major source of that. Chic celebrities such as Naomi Watts—who was recently spotted in downtown NYC wearing jeans with a few buzzy accessory trends that pair perfectly with denim.
As we close out 2026, well-dressed women have been reaching for high-impact yet elegant accessories that'll elevate their jeans with ease. The three trends Watts chose to pair with her denim-and-blazer outfit were a fabric corsage brooch, a French-girl silk scarf knotted at her neck, and a Western plaque belt, which feels sleeker and more modern than Western belts of recent seasons. You can wear these accessory trends separately or all together, as Watts did. Either way, you'll have nailed the late-2026-chic-dresser look.
