Top Seven Picks in Fashion Accessories for Fall 2008

Oh the love of fashion accessories! Here are my top 7 picks for accessories for Fall 2008:

Fur Details: Michael Kors made the fur neck cozy and scarf look ultra retro in his runway collections. Whether faux or real, fur will jazz up any ensemble.

Art Inspired Shoes: Sure, hold on to your classic black slingbacks; but make room for the wonderful array of colorful and funky styles that are hitting the stores. Look for shoes with quirky details and interesting straps and buckles.

Leather Opera Gloves: The era of the 1950's and 1960's is upon us and wow am I excited! Leather opera gloves are so chic and will make any outfit look amazingly put-together.

Skinny Belts: Diane von Furstenburg really rocked the fall runway with the skinny belt. Rather than simply holding up trousers, the belts were used for cinching in cardigan sweaters and coats.

The Statement Necklace: Keep your strands of pearls for some occasions, but if you really want to add pizzazz to your wardrobe, invest in a edgy statement necklace...one that will really make your wardrobe pop. For the Vera Wang collection, she showed necklaces that were works of art.

Opaque Hosiery: Ditch the boring legwear for ones with interesting designs and jewel-toned colors. Your legs will look both fun and SEXY!

Clutch Purse: Not just reserved for the evening, clutch purses are fast becoming a wardrobe staple; thanks to Sarah Jessica Parker's character, Carrie Bradshaw, from Sex and the City. Now these compact purses come in a variety of styles, sizes and shapes.

Happy Shopping (wink)!
