3 Game Changing Accessories For Fall
Fall is the best season for those of us who love layers and playing with fashion. Basics like cardigans, white t-shirts, and black trousers have endless style possibilities depending on what accessories you reach for.
Three key accessories for fall that can elevate any basic outfit are a good pair of sneakers, a chic bag, and a baseball cap - which gives that effortless look we all love.
For sneakers, my go-to’s are New Balance or Nike for both comfort and style. For a designer option, I love the 70’s inspired look from Loewe’s Flow Runner sneakers. They’ve been on my wish list for a couple of years and it’s just a matter of time until I add a pair to my growing sneaker collection.
For handbags, Spanish designer Loewe makes my all-time favourite handcrafted bags. I recently picked up the chic little Nano Puzzle bag - the perfect addition to my fall wardrobe.
Finally, baseball caps are big for fall, having seen them on the Celine runway for two seasons in a row now, as well as on celebrities like Rihanna and Hailey Bieber. I like to use this accessory to downplay dressier pieces like black trousers or blazers.
I also want to acknowledge that while your top fall accessories might be different than mine, the key is to have fun and wear whatever brings you joy.

The black trousers featured in this post are from Nordstrom’s house brand. They’re chic and comfortable and feature an elastic waistband that I’m obsessed with. I’m wearing the Everyday pant which happen to have a cropped leg - perfect for styling with my favourite fall sneakers. BTW - these trousers run true to size.

This New Scent is Luxurious, Green & Long-Lasting
Frederic Malle's latest scent has just launched and it's absolutely breathtaking. Created by Anne Flipo, Synthetic Jungle is bright, lush, and mysterious with a retro vibe.
I like to think of it as a work of art captured in a bottle. A mid-century modern home with a luscious garden also comes to mind.
The top notes of Basil and Lily of The Valley are fresh and sophisticated. The middle note of jasmine is mysterious while the base note of patchouli is addictive.
Despite the florals in this scent Synthetic Jungle feels vibrant and green.
Almost unisex.
"Synthetic Jungle is a stylized landscape in technicolor greens. An ode to cult perfumes of the 1970s, Synthetic Jungle offers a modern vision of nature reimagined.
Flipo retained the opulent basil of the original composition, along with a recomposed bouquet of hyacinth, lily of the valley, natural jasmine, and Ylang Ylang oil.
To modernize and sharpen, she then added synthetic black currant and styralyl acetate, effectively putting the bouquet through a glossy, sparkling filter.
Flipo simplified the Chypre and leather notes, resulting in a cleaner, more streamlined accord. Finally, she added patchouli."

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: What to Buy for Now & For Fall
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is happening now and it’s going strong! While many things are selling out fast, there’s still plenty of good stuff in-store and online.
I visited Nordstrom the first day the sale opened to the public and scored a few pieces that I could wear now - but that will also take me well into fall.
My favourites have to be the sustainable cashmere cardigan from Frame, high-waisted leggings with pockets from Zella, and a pair of fuzzy yellow Ugg slippers that I picked today when I went back to the store. (I know, I couldn't resist.)
Keep scrolling for my favourite pics along with ideas on how to style your new pieces from Nordstrom.
Happy shopping!
