The fashion trends for 2011 are chic black and gold belts, clutch purses, transparent jewelry and zippered shoes.

This fall fashion season accessories are big, bold and simply stunning. Gorgeous colors, strong detailed embellishments and personalized accents go beyond fashionable and create a flattering look with plenty of sexy appeal. The hottest accessories this fall fashion season include black and gold leather belts, clutch handbags, clear gemstone jewelry and zippered shoes and booties.

Black and Gold Leather Belts

Belts have long been a fashion staple not only for practical reasons but also to add dimension and textured appeal to an outfit. Belts can be worn cinched at the waist to highlight a curvaceous figure or to create the look of an hourglass figure.

A belt that is cinched at the waist will create a sleek and stylish fashion statement. Belts can also be worn loose and at an angle over the hips to break up a monochromatic color scheme or to highlight a chic and casual fashion look.

For an instant update invest in one or two black and gold belts for the fall.

  • Leather with brass studs by B-low the Belt
  • Leather with brass hardware by Michael Kors
  • Women's Double Row Studded Hip Belt by Linea Pelle
  • Premium Hand Beaded Tie Belt by ASOS

Black and gold leather belts are one of the hottest women’s fashion trends this fall. Look for black belts with gold colored trim, metal embellishments such as studs and links and funky styled brass hardware.

Clutch Handbags

Clutch handbags are all the rage. No longer are clutch handbags an accessory worn only in the evening or at upscale events. This season clutch handbags have gone casual! The easy to grasp size and fun and flirty designs have made clutch handbags the go-to-handbag for 2011.

Some of the more popular clutch handbags this season include:

  • Gunmetal mesh clutch with chain by Rebecca Minkoff
  • Calf hair animal print clutch by Lauren Merkin
  • Embossed red leather clutch by Perlina
  • Wristlet Clutch Rafe Liz

The hottest clutch handbags for fall are small to midsize with plenty of embellished details. Look for clutch handbags that are comfortable in the hand, easy to carry and with enough room for all the essentials including lipstick, powder, cell phone, cash and credit cards.

Clear Faux Gemstone Jewelry

Who says that gold, silver and precious gemstones are a girl’s best friend? This season indulge in some fun, flirty and affordable jewelry.

The hottest women’s fashion trends for fall include transparent acrylic jewelry. Acrylic necklaces, bracelets and rings are a great way to add textured style to an outfit. The look is clean yet glamorous and can go from the catwalk to the office.

Great looks and styles in acrylic jewelry include:

  • Acrylic Pearl & Crystal Cluster Ring by Lee Angel
  • Lucidity Necklace by Anthropologie
  • Clear Beaded Stretch Bracelet by Stein & Blye
  • Acrylic Shaky Earrings Catherine Stein

Look for clear or semi clear gemstone inspired acrylic jewelry. Large chunky jewelry pieces will add an element of unique style and appeal to an outfit with out competing or clashing with the color scheme.

Zippered Shoes and Booties

Zippered shoes and booties are simply the hottest fashion trend going. This style is not only for fall and will carry over to the winter fashion season as well. The zigzag teeth in gold or silver accents highlight one’s footwear and complete the look of an outfit.

The most fashionable zipper style shoes and ankle booties include:

  • Taina Zipper Studded Leather Platform by Bcbgeneration
  • Zipper Skimmer by Marc Jacobs
  • Downtown Zipper Booties by Michael Kors
  • Women's Tecer Zipper Pump by BCB Girls

Zippered shoes and booties are complimentary to any style including casual, chic, edgy, and sexy. Make statement when walking into any room by wearing a pair of zippered shoes or ankle booties.

The hottest accessories and fashion trends this fall fashion season include gorgeous black and gold leather belts, embellished yet handy clutch handbags, stunning transparent gemstone inspired jewelry and unique yet feminine zippered shoes and ankle booties. If investing in a new wardrobe is not in the budget this season then updating one’s wardrobe with stylish accessories is an ideal way to stay on top of the hottest women’s fashion trends for 2011.
