And while the rest of the world is getting excited about pumpkin spice and Halloween décor, we are beyond ready for fall fashion. If you are a fashionista like us, you are going to want to know what is coming into style for the next few months. Here are seven fall accessory trends that we can’t wait to get in on.

1. Try Some Shine

It’s time to trade in your neutral accessories for something with a little more shine because this fall is all about the metallics. From gold metallic bags to shiny copper boots, we are about to see shimmer everywhere this season. To jump in on this glitzy trend, pair your metallic accessories with a neutral or jewel toned outfit to help them really pop. And you don’t need a special occasion for this trend, because we are going to see metallics dressed both up and down throughout the fall and winter months.

2. Hiking Boots

We are seeing different versions of the infamous hiking boot on the runway coming from designers like Chloé, Christian Dior and Salvatore Ferragamo. We love this trend for fall because of its versatility. Hiking boots can be used to dress down a nice dress or skirt, or they can be paired casually with some boyfriend jeans and a graphic tee. No matter how you style them, this is definitely a trend you won’t want to miss out on.

3. Fluff and Fur

We are already seeing this trend trickle down from the runways into mainstream clothing retailers. Fluffy, oversized hats,shoes and bags are being seen everywhere lately. This trend was made especially popular by Rihanna who loves the popular furry bucket hats. Try out a pair of fluffy sandals paired with some fitted jeans and a stylish top. You don’t need to go too crazy with the rest of your outfit as these eye-catching accessories truly speak for themselves.

4. High-Heel Mary-Janes

The classic Mary-Jane has been having a moment for years, but now we would like to introduce you to theplatform Mary-Jane. Made popular by Versace, the platform Mary-Jane is taking over shoe racks everywhere this fall. Not only do these look stylish and trendy, but they are also extremely comfortable to walk in due to their high platform, thick heel, and supportive strap. Not to mention they make your legs look miles long. Try out a Mary-Jane heel in a fun and bold color to add some playfulness to any outfit.

5. Curved Handbags

A timeless black bag will never go out of style for fall, but this fall we are seeing a particular shape of black bag that is gaining traction. The curved handbag has been seen all over the runways in a variety of colors and materials. The curved handbag is a modern day variation of the hobo bag. After months of tiny bags taking over the fashion world, the curved handbag is a nice change of pace for anyone who actually needs to carry things around. Pick up a curved handbag in a metallic shade to combine two of the hottest fall trends.

6. Chunky Sneakers

If you are partial to your chunky sneakers or skate shoes, fear not because this long-standing trend isn’t going anywhere this fall. For another consecutive season we are seeing this sporty trend dressed up and down on the runways. The specific styles that are going to be particularly trendy come fall are the shell-toe skate shoes. Neutral and brown tones are going to be the most popular choice for these, but you can also find them in metallics if you want to combine trends and dress up an outfit. Either way, this trend doesn’t look like it's going anywhere so don’t be afraid to invest in a good pair of chunky sneakers.

7. Bangles

If you are over a certain age, you probably remember the last time bangle bracelets were on trend. When they were popular years ago, they usually came in shiny metals that clinked together with every move you made. The bangles that are on trend for this fall are a bit more upscale and come in much smaller stacks. They are also way chunkier and made of less noisy materials. Try out this nostalgic accessory with any outfit for a fun and sophisticated element.
