I love a good outfit that's all about denim and flats. Yes, aspirational fashion is truly *a delight*, but in the real world, I'm reaching for my favorite jeans multiple times a week, and simply attempting to put together fall looks that feel polished and practical enough to take me from meetings to a cute dinner.
If denim is your happy place and (like me) you're just secretly trying to be comfortable as possible as you navigate through the world, then chic accessories are going to be your best friends. From classic designer flats from Toteme to trending under-$100 handbags from Mango, these elegant accessories are guaranteed to instantly elevate your favorite pair of jeans.
The snub-toe makes such a simple outfit feel intentional.
Excuse me with this buckle.
Boxy shoulder bags are so polished.
Flat slingbacks are sticking around as an investment-worthy staple.
Genuine leather and under $50.
Woven leather always feels elite.
The suede trend is dominating.
Hello to another little peep of suede.
St. Agni's accessories are always editor favorites.
If you told me this cost 10 times the price, I'd believe you.
She's rich.
A subtle nod to the burgundy trend.
Also, this velvet is so lush.
I own (and love) this Toteme bag, and it's finally back in stock on Net-a-Porter.
Something a little different.
Mango really thrives when it comes to fall footwear.
Parisian brand Sézane is notorious for this structured handbag that comes in a slew of classic and on-trend colors.
Here's to all the skinny belts with rectangular buckles.
Immaculate.
This shade of brown will be as good in the warmer months as it is for fall and winter.
Elite.
These under-$100 flats also come in brown—snap 'em up while they're back in stock at Nordstrom.
Keeping your commute chic.
Another delightful slingback to add to your rotation.
Another moment for the burgundy trend.
This belt is a permanent fixture in my Instagram feed.
Classic.
For when you have *stuff*.
These are bound to become your go-to pair.
Bigger buckles and fatter straps give this style a completely different feel.
If matte hardware is more your thing.
A more sculptural buckle feels unique.
My favorite thing about this time of year is pairing fall-ready sandals and slingbacks with blazers and jackets.
An elasticated strap is extra comfortable if you have high arches.
This under-$100 burgundy shoulder bag feels so polished.
Love 'em or loathe 'em.
A no-brainer.
These also come in a classic black leather, but it's the mock croc for me.
If you're looking for an under-$100 buy, I'm really not sure this crossbody can be beat?
This one's an editor favorite.
A much cooler version of my old-school uniform.
