The first signs of Autumn drifting through the air are just intoxicating… that very particular smell, a deceivingly fertile odor of leaves wanting to fall and countless plants on the cusp of metamorphosis: ready to shed their layers (backyard compost!) as we pile the layers on. Oh, layers! Accessories! The other splendid sign of Fall! Where oh where to buy?

Try Yokoo’s Etsy store, with a chunky & bright collection of scarves, hats, woolie-chains, Minnie Mouse bows, and other quirky finds. The shop certainly evoked a veritable giggle-fest at my cubicle as I carefully scanned the pages for the items I would decide were an absolute necessity.

The verdict? For the best in versatility, grab the Nantucket Cowl in one of 25 available colors (love the wood-brown). You can wear it as a hat/scarf combo, a ruffled scarf (by pulling the drawstring) or as a looser, slinky scarf (sans-drawstring). And for totally useless but obligatory fashion flair? The retardedly oversized Sweetheart Chain (with one “miscolored” link) is a great recession alternative to overpriced jewels…
