Accessories

I've been doing a lot of thinking about kids and back to school shopping.  Man, kids cost a lot of money.  Every year you have to get them new clothes because they grow out of all of their old ones. I was thinking if we have girls you buy a bunch of accessories that they can mix and match with some basics every year. Like simple outfits with cute things to wear with everything.  Every year they have more of a variety to match clothes up with. But what do you do with boys. They rip all their pants and stain all of the shirts. What is the boy version of accessories.  All I can think of is switching their shoes up by buying different color laces for their basic colors. Not as cool as cute belts, bracelets, necklaces and  headbands.  I need help with ideas for boys.
