In an overcrowded Instagram feed consisting of 45% fashion inspiration, 45% LOL-worthy memes, and 10% personal content from friends (is this just me?), it can be hard to make an OOTD pic stand out. I've been studying my favorite fashion accounts for long enough at this point to have noticed three things that always make me stop for a double tap: anything sparkly, bold prints, and lots of colors. I'm not sure if there's any science behind this, but personally, I find clothing and accessories in these categories always catch my attention. Feel free to test this theory for yourself with any of these 17 Instagram-approved pieces. Just don't @ me when you get a ton of comments and new followers, because you, my friend, have been warned.
