Hotlotz, Singapore's fastest-growing auction house has another great sale that has just gone up. Designer & Luxury - July is open for bidding now, and closes Sunday 1 August 2021. Here's their latest blog post should you need any inspiration on how and why to rock a brooch (they have a beautiful one in the auction that you can build your outfit around!)
Why We Should All Wear Brooches
When are you old enough to wear a brooch?! I like to think I have a few years left; but apparently I AM officially "old enough" to no longer wear a brooch ironically (I am four years older than 39).
Of course brooches always looks fabulous pinned to lapel of a coat or blazer (extra points if it's being worn with jeans and trainers) but they also look good when worn in a formal context (just look at Kate) or my new favourite -Â grouped.
Kate is a fan and shows you which side, traditionally, you are meant to wear it. (Left is technically correct, but who cares?)
I love that Blake's bling (below) is being worn in the centre....Also, if you go large, it's a great solution to the eternal problem of picking out earrings to go with an outfit: you don't need to!
We have this Dolce and Gabbana beauty in our Designer & Luxury Fashion auction which has just launched:
How to wear it? However you'd like!
*PS Don't forget, they're also great pinned on bags, hats and jumpers - and we have plenty of these up for auction too: check out the full catalogue over at hotlotz.com
This (below) is one of my favourite looks:
And don't forget that more, with brooches, is often more:
If you're bidding, best of luck!
