1 scarves: A scarf (plural: "scarves") can be worn by a man or woman, and is often tied neatly around the neck. In cold climates, scarves are usually "knitted" using wool to keep the neck warm. The "neck" is the part of the body in between the head and the shoulders.
2 handbags: This is the correct answer. A handbag (plural: "handbags") is a small purse, a container used for carrying money and small personal items or accessories (especially by women). Note that the men's equivalent is sometimes called a "manbag". To "carry (a purse)" is to hold it in one's hands, or on some other part of the body.
3 belts: This is the correct answer. A belt (plural: "belts") is a piece of material, often a leather band, worn around the waist of pants to ensure that they fit snugly and don't fall down. Belts can also be worn simply for show, as accessories.
4 cufflinks: This is the correct answer. A cufflink (plural: "cufflinks") is a fastening for a shirt cuff (the end of a shirtsleeve, which goes around a person's wrist), often made out of two buttons or button-like parts connected with a chain that passes through two holes in the cuff.
5 accessories: This is the correct answer. An accessory (plural: "accessories") is a non-essential item, often of clothing. It contributes to an overall "look", but it is not necessary in the way that, say, a shirt is necessary. For example, "I only buy earrings and other accessories that go well with my red hair".

can't move her neck: The expression "my nose is stuffed up" does not express that one's neck hurts. The "neck" is that nice part of the body that connects the head to the torso. The nape of the neck enraptured Charles Baudelaire, it's hard not to see why.
is in pain: The expression "my nose is stuffed up" does not express that someone is in pain, only that they are congested.
feels irritated: The expression "my nose is stuffed up" has nothing to do with irritation or annoyance.
