AH, the Brooch.
The trend is everywhere, but many people just aren't into wearing them. As a result, I re-work Brooches of yours into bracelets and necklaces ALL of the time! Some of the most stunning family jewelry I have seen has been in the form of a Brooch.
However, there are many out there who who DO enjoy rocking the Brooch, or want to... but are unsure of just where to begin. So, here are a few tips on how to wear them from Harper's Bazaar (we like #4 the best!):
1.Pin them on your masculine pieces, like blazers and button-ups, for a feminine flair.
2.Smaller styles look interesting when worn in groups. Choose pieces from similar genres - all deco, for example.
3.Expand beyond diamonds. Pins are chic in unique styles, like rosettes and ribbons.
4.Put them on in unusual places. A brooch doesn't have to be stuck on your lapel. Try one on the hip of your dress, to fasten your scarf, or as a closure for your cardigan.
