I may have given you a dirty look 10 years ago if you had told me I’d be wearing brooches one day…
Because boy oh boy, they make me so happy which is why d I’m so excited to write about them today.
They have been a BIG hit on the runways and fashion magazines this season and although there’s always some hesitation when drawing attention to one’s self;
NEVER FEAR, because I’m sharing 3 EASY ways to wear brooches this holiday season and taking cues from Prada’s Fall 2015 Collection,
- Hair
Adding brooches to hair is the easiest way to add them to your style all you need is a few antique shank buttons, (here, here, here) and some bobby pins,
then feed one end of the pin through the button shank and put into your hair; on a side part, in a chignon, bun, etc – EASY.
- Coat
This is sort of a no brainer, just raid your Grandmother’s jewelry box, local thrift, or the accessories store at the mall and attach to the front of your jacket. That’s it!
Prada was all over this coat trend for fall.
- Accessories
For those not wanting to commit to wearing an actual brooch on their person but still want to get up on the bijoux trend this time of the year,
add them to your beanies, a date night clutch, or even your cell phone case – that’s what I’ve done!After hitting up my favorite shops for some rhinestone jewelry,
I took the E6000 that we used last month, clipped the hardware away with metal cutters, and glued them onto my case.
Voila!
So whether you are looking to add some super glam holiday cheer to your look or wanting to mix things up for a night,
these easy fixes will have you looking your best in minutes.
