especially the animals...and dolls...cowboy hat, etc...

and that one on page one that is the baton and marching band hat is too adorable...

isn't it great when they have moving parts...

I love my mom's vintage rhinestone pins. I have one that is like a snowflake that I wear on a pair of my brown gauchos and it makes them POP. I have one duffel bag where it's covered with various pins-some from my Campfire days, some from Hot Topic, some that I've amassed from French Camp, and some that I just happen to get. It makes statements, as one half of the strap is devoted to Happy Bunny pins. However my friend has the funniest pin-"Atheism Is A Non-Prophet Association" that is on her backpack and another friend had one that said "Mommy Make The Scary Republican Go Away".

tulip-I have many uses. I use them to hold together a vintage cardigan with no buttons. The funny ones are for backpacks, duffel bags, or even one of my purses. I'm a fan of them on gauchos especially plain black ones. I'll try it on almost anything. I don't like it on sweatshirts or jackets though.

I have a rather morbid interest in Victorian hair jewelry; here's a brooch with hair in a woven style:

And to continue with the Victorian theme, a scene cut from Irish bog oak, which I gather was used rather prevalently during the times:

I usually wear my pins on t-shirts, cardigans and bags, I think Iekeliene wears pins well:

i really want some pins, i have hardly any! inspired by marie antoinette i'd really love to buy some pastel coloured bows and work something with that and some charms. i love going into art and craft stores and just buying loads of stuff and seeing what i can do with it.

Tatika · 24-10-2006

i just got this one in the mail yesterday..i havent even had the chance to wear it; but i plan to debut it on my first day of work....but maybe its a tad too..i dont know, goth perhaps? i think its just stunning; i also ordered one with a red bulb..i dont know when ill be recieving that..im getting impatient on my other 2 broaches...

The glittering, Swarovski-clad brooches that arrived as part of Christopher Kane's autumn/winter 2008-9 offering are bound to become as much of a cult as his glittering 'Bolster' necklaces.
