How To Brooch With Style

You may think that a brooch is outdated jewelry, for the little old lady...who lived in a shoe. However, this unique accessory is a great way to spunk up and personalized an outfit. I've recently become a wee-bit obsessed with them. Therefore, I have a "small" collection of my own.

*Put smaller styles in groups that are similar in style/genres.

*Choose unique styles. Such as ribbons, rosettes, all metallic(gold or silver), etc.

*Add some femininity to your masculine pieces by pairing them with blazers, boyfriend sweaters, and/or button ups.

*My favorite thing to do is to pin them on an unusual place. At the hip of a dress or skirt or even on a scarf.

*To find unique and antique brooches for unbelievable prices check out your local thrift stores/consignment shops.

*You could create your own brooch as a DIY project.
