There’s no denying that accessories make my heart sing, and I hope you feel the same way too! For fall 2015, accessories on the runway ranged from whimsical to tribal, modern to ’70s boho, and back again to statement making pieces. Below is a roundup of some of my favorites, comprised of largely jewelry with some hats/headwear, bags, and shoes in the mix too. Pan over the images for caption information regarding which designer’s show the pieces are from, and see through to the very end of the feature for a special set of jewels by Erickson Beamon for several runway shows this season.
Of note: the information sometimes is, and sometimes isn’t available, but oftentimes designers have custom jewelry or footwear or other accessories made for their shows by other designers, occasionally it’s on loan from an existing collection by an accessories designer, or its from the designer’s own line. The latter is the more rare exception, but usually with a bit of creative Googling the source can be found.

Slowly, I’ve been seeing a large, oversized, all-neck consuming style of necklaces that…feels so opulent and modern. I’m really loving the options found, and although they aren’t the most affordable of neck pieces, if you define “getting your money’s worth” based on the amount of you compliments you will receive, then I think it may be actually be a bargain! I’m really into the crystal versions, but take pleasure in the unique stones and darkened hues as well. The bib style has apparently been quietly plotting it’s comeback since the mid-2000s, and now, it has certainly arrived!

Folks these days rely heavily on their phones to keep track of the passing minutes, which means watches have to work extra hard to remain on wrists and relevant. One straightforward way of doing so is by adding in a heavy fashion element to time keeping, which can be found on the face or bands (or both) of watches. Considering it to be more of an accessory than necessity also makes wearing a watch less of a chore and more of a style-must. See above for some of my favorites, and below for their links.
