Nothing grabs my attention like beautiful shoes or a unique handbag. Either accessory can take an outfit from boring to impressive instantly. You could be wearing the simplest of outfits, like jeans and a white T-shirt, but add a standout bag or printed boots, and suddenly, your look is statement-making.
It's for this reason that when scrolling through Instagram or shopping online, it's always the chic shoes and fancy handbags that stop me dead in my tracks. From the knee-high animal-print boots I can't stop thinking about to the feathered handbag I've already saved three times on Instagram, below, I'm highlighting the 16 cool shoes and handbags that made me do a double-take.

BAGS
Confession: I already got this one. I couldn't help myself.
