25 Trendy Fall Accessories I'm Buying to Wear With My Basics
Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one Who What Wear team member or friend of the brand will share the top 25 fashion and beauty finds on their current wish list.

Even if I'm just wearing jeans and a T-shirt or—wait for it—sweatpants, an on-trend bag, piece of jewelry, or pair of shoes can instantly take my look from average to elevated. It's really that easy. Since I've almost exclusively been wearing basics lately, I'm eyeing these 25 trendy accessories to elevate my simple outfits.
