Return of the Horse

January 27th, 2012

Hello everyone!!! Do you own a brooch? Or even a few? Are they in your jewelry box just sitting around? Don’t just let them waste away waiting for the trench to come back! Wear them! I have to say that no one can wear a brooch better than Daphne Guinness. She often has 4 to 6 of them on at a time and they look impeccable with the way she styles herself.

I love a good brooch. I wish I could afford one with precious stones. I would choose one inlaid with diamonds and jade. That would be my dream piece to have. But for now, I like to collect vintage. Not only is a vintage brooch more affordable, it is also unique. They are wonderful to wear over furs and scarves, or pinned on a loose jersey dress to give it shape or help it drape better. I found my pin at a local antique shop. eBay and etsy.com are also great sources for vintage pins/brooches .

    I love both the long and shortened versions of this dress. You’ve styled both looks impeccably! The brooch just tops everything off for me. I need a great brooch in my life!

    I completely agree with a good brooch – it can change an entire outfit, and yours is beautiful! I collect them in the Paris flea markets and have quite a few from my grandma, all are dearly loved!
