Updating your fall wardrobe can be easier than you think. The list of hot new accessories is endless, with elements from every culture.

Baubles and beads from Native American reservations have a modern appeal again. If it’s a pony-skin or fur bag, it’s the bomb--especially the fakes.

Anything made in suede with feathers, fringe and beads is hip again. Hippie halo headbands are the tiaras of today.

Handmade accessories are cool--beading, embroidery and even crocheted items like your grandmother used to make are it.

Indulge yourself with fab new accessories from all these worlds (even a tin Indian lunch box), and bingo, you look like you know what’s going on for fall 1999.

Even the straw cowboy hat looks cute again.
