Having Good Style is All in the Details—9 Fall Accessories Our Editors Are Backing
Sponsor Content Created With Fossil
This fall, the difference between good style and great style is all in the accessories. If your outfit makes you yawn, chances are you're missing something small. Add texture with a faux-croc watch, try something shiny like a chain necklace, or reach for a handbag that gives your outfit a pop of color. It's all about experimentation—you might even end up with a classically chic look like the ones our editors have styled below. When I tasked editors Eliza Huber, Bobby Schuessler, and Grace O'Connell Joshua with showcasing their favorite fall accessories, they all let their Fossil pieces do the talking. With a wide range of timeless, vintage-inspired styles, it's safe to say that this premium brand has our editors' stamp of approval. If you're ready to elevate your personal style, shop the Fossil accessories below.
"There are three words that come to mind when looking at these selects from Fossil—elevated, modern, and chic. The watch, bag, and ring not only look high-end, but feel that way as well. You can tell the difference between Fossil products and other similar products, and you can feel the level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. I tend to go for elevated basics with my clothing choices, so I appreciate beautiful accessories that take my looks to the next level. A beautiful watch like this silhouette from Fossil is a no-brainer—it's an instant way to bring an elegant spin to legitimately any look. I also can't get enough of this gorgeous Fossil bag that can be worn as a crossbody or even carried under the arm like a clutch." — Bobby Schuessler, shopping director
"For the first time maybe ever, I'm really looking forward to diving back into my storage bins rather than shopping for new fall clothes. I'm usually champing at the bit to buy outerwear, jeans, and sweaters, but I did so much of that over the last few fall and winter seasons that I'm actually quite stocked in those departments. Instead, I'm currently focused on shopping for accessories that'll elevate and modernize the pieces I already own. One item I'm really in the market for is a new watch. Five years ago, I never wore a timepiece—now, I can't leave the house without one on my left wrist. I've eliminated most jewelry out of my wardrobe and instead keep my look super simple with a timeless watch, some earrings, and that's all." — Eliza Grace Huber, senior fashion editor
"This fall, I'm focusing on having an elevated capsule wardrobe full of simple pieces that I can dress up and style with the right jewelry and accessories—especially great watches and jewelry pieces that can take my sweater dresses and knits from basic to beautiful. My favorite thing about my Fossil products is how expensive they look while not actually breaking the bank. You can tell these are quality pieces and have timeless designs, ensuring I'll wear them for years to come. Plus, the pieces are so versatile that I can wear them on a daily basis." — Grace O'Connell Joshua, assistant shopping editor
