Oh, This Old Thing? 9 Items That Always Prompt Compliments
What is it about a bag that actually holds next to zero essentials? There's something brilliantly conversation-starting about an impractical bag—because let's face it, most of us spend our time trying to find one that does fire on all cylinders and carry everything but the kitchen sink. The novelty of a ridiculously small decorative (and relatively useless) handbag never seems to wear off—onlookers can't help but admire your ability to function without stuff. So we'll keep finding an excuse to buy another one.
There's science behind red as the a confident one-hue-suits-all option. And there's no happier shade on this planet than bright pink, right? So it's no surprise that either option—both of which are also still on trend right now—seem to garner compliments left, right and centre.
A red jumper is the easiest way to liven up your winter wardrobe.
Even in 2018, fashion lovers are still surprised by the amount of shoes that are chic AND comfortable. Welcome to the new world, friends, where every brand—from Prada to Zara—offers a plethora of mid-height heels.

The Outnet is a secret source for statement jewellery for us.
You stand less of a chance of losing something when it's got your name plastered on it, and everyone else is self-interested enough to want one for themselves (and will therefore ask you where it's from).
This customisable bag is now available for preorder—so there's summer all wrapped up then.
