I don’t know how they pin or clip on, but can they be affixed at the cleavage point of a shoe? Also, along the handle of a cross body (or other bag) that has holes in the strap for making adjustments? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071764 Fri, 25 Oct 2019 15:03:38 +0000 Katerina 2071764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Bijou! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071704 Fri, 25 Oct 2019 08:37:29 +0000 Bijou 2071704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is lovely and looks like buttons on a double breasted jacket to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071618 Thu, 24 Oct 2019 21:53:56 +0000 Katerina 2071618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christina and Opaline, thank you very much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071599 Thu, 24 Oct 2019 21:02:07 +0000 Anonymous 2071599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katerina, like Christina says, those are so playful. I think they’re delightful on you. Very fun and spunky but not overtaking your style. Just adding a new dimension to it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071589 Thu, 24 Oct 2019 20:42:56 +0000 Christina F. 2071589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's cute and playful </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071584 Thu, 24 Oct 2019 20:31:31 +0000 Katerina 2071584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Synne, thank you!

However, I will be very busy for the next month or so, but when I have a few minutes I will enjoy following yours and other fabbers thread on these subject and hope to pick up some new-to-me ideas.</p> <p>Here are a few ideas for these cute brooches if they don't have to be used as buttons. You could:<br /> - Place a group of three (forming a triangle) near your shoulder<br /> - Wear one on the sleeve of your blazer/cardigan/blouse/pullover, close to your wrist<br /> - Place 3-6 of them across a shawl/wrap<br /> - Wear one or more fastened to a hat, i.e. a beret </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/accessories-challenge-brooches-or-buttons#post-2071347 Wed, 23 Oct 2019 20:14:47 +0000 Katerina 2071347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Fabbers,<br /> This is the first accessories challenge outfit. I wear a black wool cardigan (Alpha Studio) with black satin trousers (Escada) and red pumps (Zara), I added a pink silk neckerchief (Hermès) and six large brooches (outlet find) that are supposed to imitate buttons. Red vintage handbag. Red lipstick and nail polish to complete the look.<br /> The challenge here: to use this set of brooches, which I have not used yet. Bought a whole bunch of them in different colors in an outlet to play with different combinations. The placement here is not ideal, I was not very thorough ....<br /> The outfit is for future reference - maybe for a weekend dinner or for fun. Too crazy for work.<br /> What do you guys think? </p>
