Brooches have been around since before 800 AD and I've only just come to understand their true beauty. You see, with brooches it all comes down to the detail. A brooch can be added as an extra little detail onto a blazer lapel or even onto a bag, but the actual brooch itself holds so much more detail. Take this gold leaf one as an example (from Rockit.) The markings on the leaf are fine and well placed, making the leaf look realistic, but even the curled tip and stem add to the overall appearance. When closely inspected, the little additions to an outfit add to the look you want to give off. I say that brooches need to come back into fashion. I'm not talking big material flowers or diamond encrusted words. To me, it's all about the gold tones and simplistic designs. Here are some of my favourites:
