I find that I very often put together my entire outfit based upon one item that I feel I just MUST wear that day. Today was one of those days.
I bought this lovely brooch at Hobby Lobby, which is an arts and crafts store I frequent more than my wallet allows. I was very pleasantly surprised to find this beautiful piece and thoughts of how to style it have been on my mind for several days. (Buy the brooch here!)

It’s a big brooch and I thought I’d wear it as I would a statement necklace – with minimal accompanying jewelry. I chose to pair it with an easy to wear (and some days I need that!) black romper and white cotton blouse. I completed the look with leopard print, kitten heels (the perfect shoe combination) for a bit of pizzazz.

Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday! Xoxo..Cortneybre…

Off late I am also inspired by brooches.
I think they are a great statement piece and notches up one’s look.

Great brooch! but it is not the only thing that makes your outfit… the cuffs of your sleeves are gorgeous! Sara
Thank you! I’m so glad you noticed the sleeves…I love this blouse…its totally over the top and I always make a mess trying to eat while wearing it but it’s a fave! Xx..Cortneybre
The brooch is adding so much of glamor to the classy look! I also love the ruffled shirt sleeves and the leopard pumps! You are beautiful! 🙂
