Pineapple Christmas Tree

If you think it's too early to be putting up your Christmas decorations you could be wrong. According to some recent research those who put up their decorations early could be happier people.

Whether it's a simple tree, or the full works, psychoanalyst Steve McKeown told Unilad, "In a world full of stress and anxiety, people like to associate to things that make them happy and Christmas decorations evoke those strong feelings of the childhood.

"Decorations are simply an anchor or pathway to those old childhood magical emotions of excitement. So putting up those Christmas decorations early extend the excitement!"

Unilad also reported that the Journal of Environmental Psychology has found that decorations can be a way to communicate accessibility to neighbours. This means that if your house is covered with decorations then your neighbours might perceive you are more 'friendly and cohesive'. So maybe this is a great way to get to know your neighbours?

While pineapple Christmas trees are still puzzling us a little, check out some exciting new products including a cheese advent calendar, a beauty advent calendar and some potential Christmas presents.

TOP 10 RICHEST BRITISH CELEBS UNDER 30

Adele worth1 of 10

1. Adele (£132m)

It probably comes as no surprise that Adele is sitting comfortably on top of Heat's 2017 under 30s rich list. With 15 Grammy's under her belt, the 29-year-old mum-of-one is quite deservedly rolling in the cash.

Daniel Radcliffe worth2 of 10

2. Daniel Radcliffe (£78m)

Who'd have thought back in 2001 that little Harry Potter would one day appear naked on Broadway (in the play Equus - not just as a streaker!) and be worth a stonking £78m? Not us, that's for sure! Good on ya, lad!

Ed Sheeran worth3 of 10

3. Ed Sheeran (£52m)

He may be just a normal bloke who enjoys nothing more than a pint (or eight), but Ed Sheeran's bank account is pretty extraordinary. And with his song-writing prowess (Shape of You reached number 1 in 44 countries!), we predict his bank balance to keep growing.

Harry Styles worth4 of 10

4. Harry Styles (£50m)

The youngest celeb on the list, Harry Styles is officially the richest member of One Direction. Worth an impressive £50m, mini Mick Jagger (as he shall henceforth be known), seems to be smashing life as a solo star.

Emma Watson worth5 of 10

5. Emma Watson (£48m)

Another Harry Potter alumni, Emma Watson seemed to have no troubles breaking free of Hermione, landing roles in films including The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Bling Ring, and Beauty and The Beast.

Liam Payne worth6 of 10

6. Liam Payne (£40m)

In sixth place (along with his 1D bandmates Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan) is Liam Payne. Worth a cool £40m, he's worth double that of his girlfriend and baby mama, Cheryl Tweedy.

6. Louis Tomlinson (£40m)

Has someone just told Louis Tomlinson what he's worth? Is that why he's so shocked? Probably...

Niall Horan worth8 of 10

6. Niall Horan (£40m)

Surely the sweetest member of One Direction (just look at his little face!), Niall Horan has been carving out a respectable name for himself as a solo artist, and recently topped the US album charts with his debut solo album, Flicker.

Zayn Malik worth9 of 10

9. Zayn Malik (£37m)

We think we finally know why Zayn Malik - owner of the world's finest cheek bones - always looks so glum; because he's the least wealthy member of One Direction. Coming in £3m behind Louis, Liam and Niall, and a painful £13m less than Harry, would put a scowl on our faces too tbf.

Little Mix worth10 of 10

10. Little Mix (£28m, £7m each)

Can we hear it for the girls? Yes, lovely Little Mix take 10th place in the richest Brit stars under 30. Although it should be noted that they're worth £28m as a group (not that we'd be complaining with £7m each!).
