Try brooch pins for a unique seasonal look.
Brooch pins are the oldest type of jewelry out there. Since MAN had worn his first garment (the loin cloth) he needed something to hold it all together: a thorn. Brooches are the most functional piece of jewelry (serving as fasteners for clothing).
This useful ornament become popular in the 19th century. First worn on high necklines, women started placing this decorative detail on other areas of their dresses, coats, and shawls. Made out of metal, silver, gold, and other materials, brooches are designed to be an expressive piece. With intricate wire work, colored enamels, and fancy stones, the brooch can be found in a variety of different vintage and modern styles.
Wear It On Blazers/Outerwear: Take a look in your closet. Find all your basic garments that could use an extra touch of bling (i.e. black blazers, cardigans, shawls, etc.). Place brooch pin on lapels, your front chest, or anywhere around neckline. Don’t be afraid to add multiple brooches for more glitz. Â
Wear It In Your Hair:Â Â As we attend holiday parties, we experiment with different hairstyles and looks. Try putting your hair up or half down, and use bobby pins to fasten your locks. After pinning hair, take a brooch and pin it over the bobby pins, creating support and holding the brooch in an upright position.
My Holiday Pick: I chose this Snowflake Swarovski Brooch. This would look great on my emerald green cardigan, or my black tuxedo jacket. If I choose to buy two or a matching pair, I can even use them on a pair of red heels! Get creative! These stylish ornaments add more radiance to your ensemble.
