Let’s explore our top five must-have accessories to bring a fresh and fashionable touch to your spring look.

1. A Lightweight Scarf: Effortless Layering for Cool Days

Spring weather in Surrey can be temperamental and unpredictable, with chilly mornings quickly turning into warm afternoons, and longer hours of sunlight interspersed with sporadic showers. 

A lightweight scarf is the perfect accessory to keep you comfortable and stylish on these variable days, providing elegance and extra warmth without feeling bulky.

Spring Style Tips: Opt for scarves in lighter tones, with dainty patterns or pretty floral prints to embrace the season’s signature aesthetic. Instead of thick knits or heavy cashmere, choose more delicate fabrics like silk, linen, cotton, or blends. 

Best In-Store: At Elphicks in Farnham, we stock an exquisite range of beautiful Barbour scarves that combine subtle elegance with practicality, making them an essential addition to your spring wardrobe.

Pair With: Layer your scarf over a classic trench coat or a light denim jacket for a fresh, relaxed look that’s ideal for breezy spring days. And if you get too hot when the sun is shining? Glamour suggests repurposing your scarf into a purely aesthetic addition by tying it around your bag or waist instead.

2. Stylish Sunglasses: A Springtime Essential

With the arrival of spring, sunshine becomes more frequent, making sunglasses an absolute necessity on days out or jaunts around the shops in Farnham. 

A well-chosen pair of sunglasses can elevate even the simplest look, bringing effortless sophistication to your spring ensembles.

Why They Matter: Not only do sunglasses add a polished finishing touch to any outfit, they also protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, prevent irritation or damage from the elements, and reduce glare.

Style Tips: Classic shapes like aviators, cat-eyes, or oversized frames never go out of style, but yellow tinted glasses and narrow frames are also having a fashion moment in 2025. 

Brand Spotlight: Radley London’s range of sunglasses, available at Elphicks in Farnham, perfectly balances practicality with elegance. Match your sunglasses with one of the brand’s iconic statement handbags for an effortlessly chic daytime look.

Spring is the perfect season to swap out dark, wintery handbags for lighter, brighter styles that reflect the cheerful energy of the season. 

A statement handbag is not only functional for varied daytime use but can also serve as a focal point for your outfit.

What to Look For: When you’re browsing Farnham high street this spring, look for bags in soft neutrals or pastel hues like blush pink, sky blue, or buttery yellow to complement this season’s palette. We recommend choosing a wardrobe essential like a structured tote or crossbody bag to effortlessly complement both casual and formal springtime looks.
