Quarters

Quarters is situated in Clayton Square. It stocks items such as hair bands, clips, jewellery, hats and watches.
All the hair items are very cheap, some as cheap as 50p. They are in a wide variety of colours, styles and sizes so you are sure to find what you’re looking for. The items are of a reasonable quality considering the price.
This shop is always very busy and sometimes it is difficult to make your way round the shop due to the amount of people in there. The staff are helpful but always seem a bit harassed due to the shop being so busy.

Being a male, it is not often I walk into a shop like Quarters but it does remind me of a similar shop that is Accessorize. So, if you have been to Accessorize before then you can easily imagine what Quarters is like.
There are actually mere differences if you compare the two shops; an obvious one is that Quarters sells mini bikinis which noticeably are for younger girls, therefore the shop does tend to attract the much younger generation.
In terms of the products they have, you can find anything from bracelets, Venetian decorated hairbrushes to beady necklaces and fashionable scarves. It is apparent that prices are generally cheap here so it is a great place to shop for a few little gifts. I wouldn’t be able to comment on the quality as I’ve not bought anything from here but for the reasonable prices, you can’t really argue too much about quality. Here is more about quantity for you to add to your shiny jewellery collection!

Do you need a hair band? Are you in the market for a cheap retro-​looking watch? Found yourself in a fix for some fancy dress accessories? Then try Quarters.
One of the few places propping up the almost derelict Clayton Square shopping centre, Quarters has been offering cut price costume jewellery and accessories to the good people of Liverpool for years and years and years.
Though a bit grotty looking from the outside (the signage looks like a 1970’s chocolate bar wrapper) inside it’s a bright, shiny Aladdin’s cave of bits and bobs. Usually the stuff is more suited to costume building — lacy, feathery hair decorations if you’re going as a 1920’s flapper, dangly plastic necklaces if you’re going as an Egyptian princess — but, my female friends and relatives inform me, some of the items are good enough to wear out and about (and cheap enough that it doesn’t matter if they break).
The stock here is constantly being renewed so visits only a week or so apart will turn up completely new accessories, this does though mean that if you see something you like you should pick it up before someone else does. There have even been a number of occasions where Quarters have stocked items that have been a bit ahead of the curve — they sold dangly Sherpa hats before anywhere else really started to and I recently picked up a gold-​coloured analogue watch for £5 from here which looked almost identical to a £35 example from Urban Outfitters. Great stuff.

Quarters is a bit like Claire’s Accessories older and shabbier auntie. It’s a good place to go for cheap jewellery, especially earrings, and has branched out into body jewellery too, especially the diamanté belly button variety.
If you’re stuck come races season or have a wedding to go to, they also have a good range of fascinators and posh hats, and for that really special occasion: tiaras. Not an ideal place to take kids though, as the shiny, colourful, easily edible things are well within their grasp and cause mayhem.

Quarters is a little accessory store in Clayton Square Shopping Centre — they have another store not far from the Met Quarter but I’ve never been into that store.
Their main products are costume jewellery and hair accessories, but you can also find hats, gloves and scarves etc. Everything is pretty cheap, often lots of bargains for less and £1.
The store is ideal if you’re after a small gift for someone or for yourself, you can buy alot of things for your money. Admittedly the only thing I have ever bought in there was a stud for my lip, which cost me about £1.50 — bargain compared to piercing parlours.
