If you are a lover of vintage, join today's fashion forward. They are enjoying the beauty of antique style pins and brooches and there are so many ways to wear them!
The Victorian Era saw an explosion of brooch design with insects, birds, and flowers becoming wildly popular as well as cameos and Celtic knots. The brooch had finally come of age as a powerful fashion statement, and it remains still today. Not for shrinking violets, the most inspiring pieces are big, bold, and colorful, sparkling with rhinestones and crystals or dripping in faux pearls and gemstones. Originals from the Victorian and Edwardian eras are a great investment for your collection but you can never have enough faux vintage pieces!
Women once wore brooches to keep their dresses closed at the waist or shoulder but today we wear brooches in a variety of ways. In addition to wearing brooches pinned to our jacket lapels, they look equally as alluring on a turtleneck sweater. I love wearing them on my scarves and shawls. You can also purchase pendant converters and dangle your lovelies from a strand of pearls, cords, chains etc. Pin one to your hat and transform it into a very special look.
