Brooching The Subject
Looking for a fresh way to add some glitz to your ensemble? Think outside the (jewelry) box and embrace the brooch trend! The new take on this granny-chic, classic style is a more-is-more, ornate-meets-whimsical look, with an eclectic collection of baubles fastened to just about anything from a jean jacket to a handbag. You needn't invest an arm and a leg on these pretty pins. First, raid your mom's and/or grandma's stockpiles. Then tap your local flee market or swap meet, which is bound to be filled with opulent options. When in doubt, Etsy is the (literal) goldmine for brooches spanning vintage sparkler to kitschy enamel emoji. Mixing and matching is the fun of it all! Shop the trend at the bottom of the post.
Caution: Alcohol and application of these accessories do not mix. Hide them from the kiddies and pin carefully. A bloody brooch isn't cute.
