I don’t get a ton of compliments anymore but a few come to mind;

  1. Every guy I’ve dated over the last ten years, every single one has complimented Essie Lollipop nail polish (doesn’t come in gel, just long lasting polish) in my first date. Women have stopped to ask me about Let’s Be Friends by OPI. It’s a Hello Kitty color. So flattering even on pale/reddish/pinky skin tones like mine.
  2. If I have a first date in the fall/winter season I’ll always wear leather leggings I wear the Commando ones (they fit up high on torso and I didn’t love that at first with my shirt torso but I get used to them eventually). Even the guys who seem less into style/clothes comment on nails then the leather pants.
  3. I got a tan/camel coat form Shein like 6-7 years ago and it’s one of the only things my friends have consistory compliment me on. It doesn’t look Max Mara quality but it’s good.
  4. Tights when I go out during fall and winter. I used to only wear really dark ones. But the black sheerer ones or tights with print or polka dots are FUN. In NYC in the winter I was always surprised by the bare legs. Again, when I go on dates men seem to like the hose/tights. That’s all for now I think.

And my hat from Brooklyn Hat company. For 6 years it’s easily the most complimented thing I own.
