How the Right Accessories Can Make Any Outfit Shine – Style Tips from Jobsons of Alnwick
At Jobsons of Alnwick, we know that great style isn’t just about the clothes you wear – it’s about how you finish them. The right accessories can take any outfit from simple to stunning, helping you express your personality and stand out with confidence. Whether you’re dressing for a day out in Northumberland or a special occasion in town, here’s how the perfect finishing touches can make all the difference.
1. A Statement Scarf for Every Season
A scarf is one of the most versatile pieces in any wardrobe. At our fashion boutique in Alnwick, we stock a beautiful range of scarves in rich colours and luxurious fabrics. A patterned lambswool scarf can add sophistication to a tailored coat, while a soft wool wrap brings warmth and charm to your winter look. It’s amazing how one simple piece can pull an outfit together.
We love the Barbour Blair Tartan Scarf in Ancient Tartan. Soft and comfortable to wear, the scarf is printed in an extra-large tartan and will team perfectly with your favourite jackets when looking to add further warmth and style to your look.

2. Handbags with Personality
Your handbag says a lot about your style. Whether you prefer sleek, structured leather or something soft and relaxed, a well-chosen bag completes your outfit beautifully. Our curated collection of handbags at Jobsons of Alnwick offers options for every look – from timeless neutrals to playful colours that brighten your day.
One of our timeless favourite handbags is the Barkworth Reeve Ambridge Grab Bag. Available in 3 colours, this petite bag is a real star! Deceptively spacious, the Ambridge Grab bag is the perfect size when you want to look polished and put together but not overwhelmed with a huge bag.

3. Hats, Gloves and Little Luxuries
Cooler Northumberland days call for cosy accessories that don’t compromise on style. A chic hat, elegant gloves or a classic belt can add texture and balance to your outfit while keeping you warm. These small details show thought and care – the secret to effortless elegance.
Barbour make the best accessories when it comes to hats, gloves and other accessories. Why not treat yourself to a Barbour Saltburn Beanie Bobble Hat? Crafted from a soft fabric to offer a cosy and luxurious feel, complete your winter outfit with a classic accessory that you are sure to love wearing for many seasons to come.

4. Socks That Deserve to Be Seen
Socks may be a small detail, but at Jobsons we think they’re one of the most underrated accessories. A beautifully made pair of socks can add comfort, colour and character to any outfit. Think cosy wool blends for countryside walks, or playful patterns that peek out from ankle boots. Quality socks not only feel lovely but also show an attention to detail that elevates even the simplest look. They’re the perfect blend of practicality and personality – and a thoughtful gift, too!
Our seasonal favourite for Autumn Winter 25 are a pair of Barbour Kingsford Fair Isle Socks. Crafted from a chunky knit, these socks feature a full terry loop inner for ultimate comfort, ensuring your feet stay warm all day long.

5. Confidence: The Final Touch
The most powerful accessory isn’t something you can buy – it’s confidence. When you feel good, you look good. And when your accessories reflect who you are, your whole outfit shines.
