With the release of Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks and fall decor flooding into stores like Hobby Lobby, HomeGoods, and Target, I can’t help but get fall fever!  While I’m impatiently waiting for Arkansas weather to catch up to my longing for scarves, bonfires, and hot cocoa, I’ve been on high-alert for this year’s fall essentials.  Today I’m going to highlight my favorite scarves and hats that I can’t live without when the weather gets chilly!

The blanket scarf, by far the most coveted scarf of the season.  I picked up this particular scarf at a local boutique after seeing it on every It girl’s Instagram.  Wear it around your neck, drape it around your shoulder as a wrap, or use it as a blanket at a football game.  The possibilities are endless with this scarf!

A printed scarf is an easy way to upgrade a dull fall outfit while adding a little bit of extra warmth.  Leopard was last fall’s favorite print and I’m having a hard time letting go of my obsession.  If animal print isn’t your style, see my picks below for your new favorite scarf of the season!

Hats have become a regular in my seasonal wardrobe this year and I have to say, I love it.  I’ve never been much of a hat person, but I’m slowly realizing that the right hat can boost an outfit from kind of fashionable to the most enviable ensemble in the room.  Felt hats are a fall essential in every color and style, from emerald to black and floppy to panama.
