Fall is here—and while we’re all about cozy layers, statement sweaters, and boots made for crunching leaves, we’d argue that it’s the accessories that truly make the outfit. Whether it’s a bold earring, a scented candle, or the perfect mini bag, these small additions bring personality, polish, and just the right amount of extra to your day.

At Après, we’ve curated a collection of accessories that are not only fall-ready but totally giftable. These are the little luxuries that add color, texture, and joy to your routine. Whether you're styling your look, creating a cozy vibe at home, or shopping ahead for the holidays, we've got the goods.

Here’s what we’re loving right now:

Statement Earrings & Layered Necklaces

Jewelry is back in a big way this season. From oversized hoops and sculptural studs to bold beaded pieces and layered gold chains, accessories are getting the attention they deserve.

We’re especially loving styles that strike the balance between playful and elevated—think colorful resin earrings, mixed-metal layers, and freshwater pearl details. These pieces feel intentional, not fussy, and make even the most laid-back outfit feel styled.

Style tip: Try mixing and matching textures—like a gold chain with a ceramic bead necklace—for a layered look that feels totally effortless.

Mini Bags with Major Personality

The mini bag trend isn’t going anywhere—and we’re glad. Whether you’re running errands, heading out for dinner, or just need a fun pop of color, these pint-sized powerhouses bring instant energy to your look.

At Après, we’ve stocked mini crossbodies, pouches, and micro totes in textured leathers, quilted nylon, and playful prints. Look out for Clare V. favorites, which pair California cool with French-girl chic in all the best ways.

These make amazing gifts (or a little "just because" treat for yourself)—small enough to carry everywhere, but stylish enough to be the standout of your outfit.

Scented Candles, Perfume & Mood-Setting Favorites

Fall is the season of ambiance—and that means it’s time to stock up on candles and fragrances that match the cozy energy. At Après, we’ve curated a selection of small-batch scents with warm, earthy, and lightly spiced notes that feel like autumn in a bottle.

Think amber, cedar, smoked vanilla, citrus peel, and clove—perfect for winding down in the evenings or setting the mood for a crisp morning at home.

We also carry portable perfumes and roll-ons, great for tossing in your bag or gifting to a friend. Trust us—one sniff, and you’ll be hooked.

Accessories That Spark Joy (and Make Great Gifts)

Sometimes it’s the tiniest things that bring the biggest smile. We’re talking claw clips in rich tortoise and pastel hues, cashmere-blend socks, cozy knit beanies, coin purses, lip balms, and tiny trinket trays that you’ll want one of in every color.

These little additions are perfect for:

  • Building your own gift bundle

  • Treating yourself on a gray day

  • Adding the finishing touch to an outfit or bathroom shelf

Many of our accessories are under $50, making them ideal for birthdays, just-because gifts, or the early holiday shopper who loves to get ahead.

Functional Meets Fashionable

Let’s not forget the everyday staples that keep us organized while looking cute. Our fall collection includes canvas pouches, keychains, travel cases, card wallets, and sunglass straps that combine style and function with that Après flair.

Whether you're packing for a fall getaway or just keeping your tote bag from becoming a black hole, these pieces help you stay stylishly sorted.

A Head Start on the Holidays

It’s never too early to start checking off your gift list—and this fall’s accessories lineup is full of crowd-pleasers. Grab a candle for your sister, a mini bag for your best friend, and a pair of cozy socks for mom (plus one for yourself—we won’t tell).

We’re also happy to help you build a gift bundle in-store—just ask! Pair a few favorites together and we’ll wrap it up so you’re ready to gift, no stress required.
