What you will find here
Accessories finish an outfit and often get more wear than the clothes. This section brings together bags, sunglasses, watches and small leather goods from designer and high street brands.
- Bags: shoulder bags, crossbody bags, totes, clutches and backpacks.
- Sunglasses: designer sunglasses, plus some optical frames that need prescription lenses.
- Watches: fashion and automatic watches for men and women.
- Wallets and purses: card holders, zip purses and billfolds.
- Belts, ties and bow ties: for work and formal wear.
- Caps, hats and gloves: for sun and cold.
Choosing well
For bags, check the width, height, depth and strap drop rather than relying on the photo; product shots on white backgrounds make every bag look a similar size. For sunglasses, look for UV400 protection and a CE or UKCA mark, and choose filter category 2 or 3 for everyday UK use. For watches, check the case diameter and strap width, and whether it is quartz or automatic. For belts, measure a belt you already wear from the buckle to the hole you use.
Many accessories are listed as one size or NOSIZE, which simply means they are not sized. Leather goods last longer stored in their dust bags, out of sunlight and away from damp.
Common questions
What does NOSIZE mean on a listing?
It means the item is not sized, as with most bags, wallets and many sunglasses. Check the measurements in the description instead.
Are all items in sunglasses actually sunglasses?
No. A few listings are optical frames with demonstration lenses, which need prescription lenses fitted by an optician. Check the product name before you order.
