Last summer someone on the bus said she really liked my shoes (yellow loafer type) and asked where I’d got them. I had to tell her I’d had them for at least four years!

I used to have a velvet coat, and more than once people stopped me and said how much they liked it. I was flattered.

I once told a woman in a restaurant that I liked her top, and she seemed delighted. I think we should do that sort of thing more often.

I have often complimented other women on their clothes, but I never ask where they got them from.

I saw a lady today in the street and really admired the jacket she was wearing. I wanted to tell her so and maybe ask where she’d bought it but of course I did no such thing. Have you ever felt like doing something similar, or has anyone ever approached you and said how much they like what you’re wearing. Would you be flattered or annoyed?
