I was thinking of getting a b&w brooch, just to liven up My outfit. Do you think they look abit much, as hate to say it but tacky?
Or do you think I should go for a gold plated or silver one?

Hi. foodie I would like to wear it more than once, maybe day to day. My top is plain white, but ideally I would like it to go with most colours. It's not for christmas, My budget is about £20-30.

I collect vintage brooches from charity shops etc - everyone always comments I love brooches but not too big or too eighties - anyways for something for all occasions I would suggest this one

would look lovely on a jumper, bag, scarf - even in your hair

I've got the purple one, but its more of a beige than purple - nice shimmer to the stones too, not too much
