Brooches, Scarves, and Suede Flats: 23 Under-$75 Fall Items That Will Amp Up Your Jeans

This season, I've been finding myself wearing the same thing over and over—a simple white tee, a trench coat , and jeans. The outfit is undeniably chic, but sometimes, it can feel a bit repetitive (read boring) to put the same plain pieces together time and again. If you've been feeling burnt out by your wardrobe lately, you're not alone. I've figured out a hack to make my very basic and boring jeans feel special, though: simple, fun, and trendy accessories.

Whether it's suede ballet flats or elevated swan-esque brooches, these under-$75 pieces are sure to make your denim look 10 times the price when you team them together. Scroll for the full list of chic, affordable fall accessories below.
