How we work

What this site does, what it does not do, and how to read it.

This page exists so you can judge how much weight to put on anything else here.

We have not touched these products. Nobody at Mrs Accessories has worn, handled, weighed or washed any item linked from this site. There is no testing lab and no sample cupboard. When we say a $12 claw clip is likely to be the same acetate as a $60 one, that is reasoning from how the category works, not from having broken both.

Where the trend information comes from. Published fashion coverage — Who What Wear, W Magazine, Marie Claire and similar — plus what is visibly selling on Amazon. Every trend page lists the specific articles it draws on, with the date we read them. If a claim on this site has no source, that is a bug and we would like to hear about it.

Runway and Amazon are two different things. The trends we report are mostly designer goods. What we link to is mostly under $30. We keep those clearly separated on every page: the designer names appear in a box explaining where the trend came from, and nothing in the shopping section below is one of those pieces or connected to those brands.

Prices. Captured from Amazon's API when we refresh the catalogue, and shown with the date of capture. If a price is more than two weeks old we remove it rather than show you a stale number. Prices change constantly and the figure on Amazon at the moment you click is the real one.

No ratings, no reviews, no scores. The product data available to us returns no reliable star ratings for this category, so we show none. We do not aggregate, estimate or invent them, and we do not publish "best of" rankings dressed up as testing.

Commission. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Corrections. If something here is wrong, out of date, or reads as though we tested something we did not, please tell us and we will fix it.
