 Quality high street accessories |
17-18 Princes Square 48 Buchanan Street Glasgow G1 3JX United Kingdom +44 141 221 3164 http://www.accessorize.co.uk/ |
As part of Monsoon, you would expect to find a higher class of accessory here, and you would not be disappointed. Prices are extremely reasonable, but all products are stylish and good quality, well-made in tasteful fabrics and colour schemes. As well as jewellery and hair ornaments, they stock scarves, exquisite beaded evening bags, hats for all occasions and a recently established range of perfume and cosmetics. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Top of the range handbags, travel bags and suitcases abound in this very upmarket luggage shop.

 Pre-teen dressing-up shop |
220 Buchanan Street 220 Buchanan Street Glasgow G1 2GF United Kingdom +44 141 331 2500 |
Unless she's a tomboy, every little girl will adore this wee shop as there's an abundance of all things fluffy, glittery and pink. They have a great selection of dressing-up outfits and all the necessary accessories like tiaras, magic wands and Cinderella style silver slippers to complete the look. At the in-store Princess Studio, girls can have a fantasy make-up applied and then have their picture taken on a throne to take home so they don't forget the thrill of being treated like royalty for a day.

Antique and second-hand watches |
24-26 Argyll Arcade 30 Buchanan Street Glasgow G2 8BA United Kingdom +44 141 221 5855 http://www.james-porter.fsbusi... |
Even if you're not actually in the market for a timepiece, you should pop in here to absorb the calming sound of the tick-tocking of the clocks. Old, second-hand models sit peacefully next to brand new ones, with almost all budgets and tastes catered for. The range and the service are both excellent and if you feel like being pampered as you purchase then this shop will be a haven. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Karen Millen's bright and bubbly sis |
Princes Square 48 Buchanan Street Glasgow G1 3JX United Kingdom +44 141 226 5176 |
Sister store of Karen Millen next door, this spacious boutique is dominated inside by a huge display table in the centre of the room, on which lie a few choice examples of their luxury knitwear. Unlike their bigger sibling however, you won't have to take out a mortgage to shop here, as items are much lower in price. Fabrics are top quality cottons and fine, silky threads in trousers and knitwear. Eveningwear is fun, featuring black transparent tops with lacy, flowery trims and matching skirts.

Showbiz cast-offs |
19-21 Dowanside Lane Byres Road Glasgow G12 9BZ United Kingdom +44 141 337 1837 |
If you're in need of a little glitz to spice up your wardrobe this is the place to come. It's not just for the girls either—the back of the shop is stuffed with kilts, jackets, suits, waistcoats and ties. They sell second-hand evening dresses, coats, trousers, separates, suits and even shoes. A full and varied range of accessories includes gloves, cufflinks, costume jewelery, scarves, hair combs and hats. You may even find some collectible items although anything really valuable has already been spotted by the owners and is only available for hire, a good option for special occasions when you want to stand out from the crowd in a truly unique outfit.
