This shop is about as big as a Matchbox and i really dont like going in there, which is a shame as they have some lovely stuff and very well laid out in colour sections...

They do a great range of coloured tights at great prices.. Hair accessories,jewellery, scarves and hats can be expensive.... The flip flops and other summer shoes look really funky and fun-even though i have never brought any...

This shop could definatley benefit from a bigger premises, but due to it being in partnership with Monsoon and the joint entrance, they would struggle in Winchester to find a suitable location.

i love this shop due to the fabulous jewellary, underwear, bags and much more however they all come at a pretty high price. its a great shop for small expensive gifts. the staff are very friendly and mostly willing to help.

This accessorize is joined onto the monsoon, It's so small and there really isn't a good selection of products. There isn't much room to move and its quite stuffy too. This really should be made bigger.

Accessorize is a great shop for buying presents for people, as it has a wide range of pretty jewellery, bags, scarves and shoes. The floor layout is good, as everything is colour coordinated, though the store itself is very small. It can be very difficult to get out of once youre in, since its always busy.

Rather small store which is cramped yet this is the norm of Accesorise stores. The staff are very friendly and I love the sales when they happen as you manage to pick up some bargains - especially when products go down to 75% off. The store is situated right in the centre of town so is very accessible.

I personally cant say i spend much time in here but my daughter loves it and i must admit that buying things for my daughter seems to be cheaper than buying things for my son however having said that it seems most things we buy from here get broken but that could just be her being too rough with them

Accessorize is a lovely little shop with great products, it can be cramped but it still has a good feel to it. It is good because it has a range of good products and there is always something to suite you. It is linked to Monsoon by a little door which I think is a bounus.

I previously worked for Accessorize/Monsoon, and can genuinely say, the nicest bunch of people, it makes all the difference when you enter a shop and staff are not judging you or making you feel awkward. The jewellary is divine in every colour possbile and great value for money. Also there is an endless wrack of flipflops! Often matches the clothes linking through to Monsoon, where staff are happy to put together an entire outfit for you. Items can be gift wrapped if desired.

I think this store is lovely. Although it is unquestionably very small, it is only very occasionally that i've felt cramped. As with any Accessorize branch, the products on offer are beautiful but quite costly. I love to browse in here, looking for gifts for friends. An Accessorize voucher is a great idea for any girly girl if you're at a loss as to what to buy them. The connecting shop Monsoon means that customers can dip in and out of both, spreading the customer levels, meaning that neither gets too busy.

Although the jewellery, bags and scalves etc are just as good as any Accessorize in Britain, this particular one is so small that when it's empty you can walk from the front to the back in about 5 steps. On a Saturday it will be extremely uncomfortable to shop in. However if you need good, cheap jewellery and don't have time to go to Southampton or anywhere else, then it serves its purpose.

Most of the products here are really beautiful. There is a very good range considering the peite nature of the shop. They always wrap products really well, so making present buying easy! It can be quite squashed, especially if there are any prams.

The problem with accessorize is that it's so popular lots of people end up wearing the same thing. The shop however sells aome amazing things for reasonable prices that never look tacky. The shop is on the high street and is joint with monsoon.

A small store but crammed full of good stuff. Staff are friendly and helpful and the jewellery etc is really nice for presents. Size is a bit of a problem as when it's busy hard to move and very hard to shop but when its empty its really nice, wide range for so little space, I generally enjoy shopping in here and can find what I'm looking for.

Accessorize might be a bit more pricey than most stores but it's definately worth it, the products are mainly jewellery and bags and they're always lovely and unique. The staff are really friendly and the store is well presented.

Very nice acessorises and great for gifts. The staff are friendly but the shop itself it very small so it is hard to move and you always end up knocking stuff off the walls. Nice jewellery and hairties. Sometimes it sells some tacky stuff but not often. Most of the stuff is great quality and really nice

Nice little Accessorize branch, with a door way to Monsoon next door. It's quite narrow and cramped but that doesn't really matter, you can get hold of what you can, you just might have to deal with people traffic at busy times.

Has plenty of girly products like jewelery, bags and other accessories. Quite as small store but it suits it well and is very nicely laid out. Only negative is that the prices are quite high.

Very asthetically pleasing! The way it looks makes you want to walk in there and buy everything in the shop! It has a wide range or jewlery, bags, shoes, and a lot more! The prices may seem a little expensive at first but then you realise the quality you are recieving and you dont mind paying that little bit extra! The staff are friendly and are always willing to help!

Its a bit cramped!! but it has most of things a larger accessorize would have, just in a smaller space and with a slightky smaller selection. Its still pretty expensive though. the staff are willign to gift wrap everything, but its quite hard to get to teh counter without standing in teh way! xD

A shop for looking at.... Everything in there looks amazing and it's all laid out in schemes and colour similarities. It's linked to monsoon but it's really different, and though the shop in Winchester is relatively small it fits everything in the corridor of space that it has. It may be linked to Monsoon but to me it's much better - with a younger feel and relatively inexpensive, good quality products to suit any outfit or event.

I love the bags in here. They are all quite expensive but most of them are real leather or handmade quality. The shop is tiny so it can be a bit of a squeeze, but its got loads of stock so your bound to find something nice. They also do earrings and jewellery.

Accessorize sells a great range of fashon accessories ranging from bags to pens. this store is quite small and the shelves are quite crowded showing they have full stock levels but it can be quite hard to find stuff you want.

I'm constantly dragged in here by my sister on our many shopping trips so thought I'd put in a boys perspective. It is great for gifts to teenage girls as its not clothes! but something they may want. The staff are a good laugh and willing to help you find something that will be a good gift. There is a vast selection of accesories from earings to bags.
