A brooche can make all the difference

Brooches date all the way back to the Bronze Age. The Celts, the Ancient Greeks and the Romans, to name a few, have all used these pieces of jewelry to embellish their outfits.

A brooch can change your outfit entirely. It can complete your look or completely transform it. The best thing about brooches, is the fact that they are so versatile. You can use vintage brooches (Portobello Market is a great place to find them) or modern ones alike and pin them to your coat, on a turtle neck, your trousers or even your hat and bag.

 Miroslava Duma, a Russian social-light, philanthropist, blogger and journalist, is no stranger to wearing brooches. Above, she is pictured wearing a beautiful piece from the Chanel, Paris-Moscow 2009 collection.
