I was browsing in Kmart the other day, as you do, and my eye was immediately drawn to the coolest little crochet hat.

It comes in three cute colourways, each at the bargain price of $10.

For the cost of a sandwich, you can tap into one of the biggest accessory trends to emerge from the European summer.

You might've seen Loewe's cult logo bucket hats on your feed lately, while crochet headwear was everywhere at Copenhagen Fashion Week.

And while some of them looked more like doilies than actual hats, I've gotta hand it to Kmart for tackling the trend in a slightly more accessible way.

Accessories are one of the easiest ways to upgrade your look, and spring is a great time to experiment with fun styles that don't have to cost a bomb.

Here are 4 affordable looks to play with this season.

Crochet and raffia pieces bring a chic, crafty element to your outfit, whether you opt for a hat, tote bag or ballet flats.

Mamamia fashion contributor Annabel Falco is a big fan of woven accessories, and shared how she styled them into her 'fits on her recent holiday to Greece.

Retro aviators.

While those gold-rimmed metal aviators will always be a classic, the latest styles I'm coveting have a rounder shape inspired by Bottega Veneta and Tom Ford.

Lean into the 70s vibe and embrace shades like burgundy and tortoiseshell, and don't be afraid of coloured lenses.

I've found 3 budget options to get you started. File under: need now.

Printed scarves.

The versatility of a scarf or bandana is truly unmatched. You can tie one around your bag handle, wear it as a neckerchief, loop it around your ponytail or even wear it like a sash belt, a la every influencer on your feed at the moment.

The best part is, you can snag one at an op shop for next to nothing, or find lots of budget options at department stores.

Earthy jewels.

Organic shapes are having a huge moment in accessories right now, with chunky resin bangles, molten metal earrings and stone pendants partying like it's 1992 (bonus points if you still have your original pieces from that era tucked away in your closet.)

There's an art to wearing them, and it's all about keeping it minimal with one statement piece. Add too many earthy jewels and you'll veer into boho territory.
