OOTD | A Rainy Summer's Day with Happiness Boutique*

I was recently very pleased to receive an email from Happiness Boutique, an international online clothing and accessories store based in Berlin, asking if I'd like to try my hand at styling one of their gorgeous statement necklaces. I'll confess I was a little apprehensive at first, I'd never been much a statement jewellery kind of girl before and I didn't know if I'd be able to do the necklace any justice. However, after a bit of thought I decided I'd take a step out of my comfort zone and get on board.

Initially my main worry was how I'd incorporate a necklace like this into my day-to-day style since I'm normally quite a casual dresser. I've also only ever owned one other statement necklace which I've barely worn! However, I was very pleasantly surprised to find how effortlessly a statement piece like this managed to brighten up a fairly average, everyday look just by adding a little hint of glamour, and all without looking a bit out of place (I hope)!

When Happiness Boutique first got in touch with me I was really interested in hearing a bit more about the brand, since after reading up a bit on their story, I found their vision of promoting feelings of happiness, optimism and confidence to be a really positive concept, if not a little abstract at first! I didn't really understand how a brand could differentiate itself based on these kinds of values since surely 'retail therapy' is called therapy for a reason, regardless of where you're shopping. However, after now having tried and tested one of their products I can say that with Happiness Boutique the difference is in the details, and they definitely succeeded in brightening my day!


My necklace was shipped really quickly and arrived in this gorgeous packaging. It's very clear that a lot of energy and thought goes into the product's presentation before it's sent off to the customer, and for me it really makes all the difference! I was surprised actually since despite giving the impression of being a large online store, it's managed to maintain the personal touch of a much smaller, traditional boutique. No easy task when you have an abundance of orders to keep up with! The necklace was so intricately wrapped and presented that I really felt like I was opening a lovely gift from a friend.

In addition, it may be a cliché, but I did feel super fancy and princess-y donning this lovely piece. I fell more and more in love with it the longer I wore it, and it's been a excellent opportunity for me to introduce some much-needed glam into my wardrobe! 

Happiness Boutique's statement necklaces start at around £16 or €22. Have a look at the necklace I'm wearing. Every standard order ships worldwide free and they also have customer reward scheme whereby you receive points for writing reviews or sharing photos of your purchases on social media. These can then be traded in for rewards such as jewellery or clothing.
