  • How to Wear a
    Brooch
  • It's been a long while since brooches were popular, so we've come up with some suggestions for ways to wear them:

    • Pin a brooch on the back of a pair of cool jeans.


    • Attach a brooch at the bottom of a long or short strand of pearls as a pendant, or clipped off-center on a double-stranded set.


    • Add a brooch to a scarf where it overlaps.


    • Decorate an evening bag with a brooch.


    • Wear small brooches in a cluster at the lapel or shoulder of a denim jacket.


    • Pin a brooch at the bottom of a V-neck.

    If you have any other suggestions, please let me know!
