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.
I swear by the sentiment that a really great accessory is the key to a stylish outfit. 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.
Silver chain-link necklaces look so chic mixed in with my everyday gold jewelry.

I already love shearling outerwear, so I'm really excited to buy some shearling accessories this season.
Leave it to Balenciaga to create the perfect on-the-go belt bag.
Snakeskin, and animal prints in general, is not a trend going away anytime soon.
Crafty jewelry, from woven-string bracelets to beaded necklaces, is such a fun trend to try. These pieces always put me in a good mood.
