Admit it – do you think only older ladies wear brooches?
I used to think that brooches were worn by stately ladies with silver hair as they sipped their afternoon tea. But then I started to realize that brooches could be such fun and versatile accessories. I’ve attached a brooch to a plain headband for a little sparkle and have also worn it to enclose a delicate blouse that was just a little too low for the office.
I’m not the only one that likes a good brooch and saw Olivia rocking her own brooches a few times. I love how she pairs them with both casual and more formal outfits.

What style would you like in a brooch?
i like how olivia wears 2 brooches on her collar. i’m not a ‘traditional’ brooch wearer, i’m more of a flower pin or poof wearer, but this has inspired me to pick up something with sparkle.
oooh gosh she is so amazing
her eyes look so happy and good healthy!
i love her style!

I feel like my style doesn’t accommodate brooches – but I do love the look of them! 🙂
This post had really inspired me to go out and friend some pretty brooches to wear (or raid someones vintage jewellery box in the family) Love the Nina Taylor one and the bridal design
Sam, I could see you rocking a fun, vintage brooch. They are so timeless!
Guess what, I went rummaging around an old jewellery box and actually found a lovely vintage piece!
Cool! You should definitely wear that brooch soon!
Great choices! I love brooches and wear them all the time. That vintage brooch from etsy is amazing!
she definitely does not wear her broaches like an old lady would!

I’ve always liked them, but like you thought they were only for older rich ladies. HaHa I have a couple and need to wear them more.
