A brooch or a jewelled pin is a chameleon. That simple pin many might associate with little old ladies is the most versatile jewel you can ever own.
Okay, the typical way to wear your brooch is on your left breast pocket. Sure. Brooches look great worn like that but, hey, be creative. Brooches are jewelled pins you can pin on anywhere. Literally. Except into your skin. Just be careful you don't pin yourself. Ouch!
For one thing, you can pin your brooch anywhere on your outfit where you want to draw the eye.
Button a shirt or blouse all the way to the top and pin a brooch over the top button to draw attention to your face. That is a classic look that is very sophisticated and pretty.
Pin the brooch at the top of the slit of your skirt to draw attention to your legs. It is a sexy and unconventional way to wear a brooch.
Brooches can be used to accessorize your accessories.
Turn a plain old fabric covered hair clip into a glamorous hair accessory by pinning a brooch (or two) on it. Show off your new hairclip when you put your hair in a pony tail or an updo.
Are you bored with that old fabric clutch purse? Make it new and gorgeous by turning that plain clutch purse into a jewelled clutch. Just fasten a brooch on the front center of your clutch. Or if you have a collection of brooches, you can arrange them on your clutch for a pleasing, and gorgeous new one-of-a-kind design.
Got a vest? Decorate it with brooches. You could wear just one or you could cover the entire vest with dazzling brooches for a really special look.
That's just for starters. So you see, a girl can never have too many brooches.
