5 brooches #71

Hi there,

Hope you are well.
I've worn (and remembered to photograph!) a few brooches this week so I thought I'd share them.  There aren't exactly 5- there seem to be 6 but never find- the post title fits!
Let's start from the top right and go clockwise:

1.  I bought this 'Connect 4' tank top from DinoprincessChar an age ago but it always annoyed me that it didn't have a top button so I decided to use the Jazzy Lapin bee pin that my friend M gave me for Christmas in the button hole!   I added the Rosebud Casson bee pin that I won in a Instagram competition to keep it company and a Topshop star brooch from a sale a few years ago.
2.  Dressing like an art-teacher. This Seasalt paint-sample shirt was a delightful charity-shop find last year.  I added the pencil earrings our new Deputy head gave me for my birthday last year (we used to do a job share together years ago) and added the cute face brooch that our old Deputy Head gave me for Christmas this year.
3.  This WhiteStuff heart shirt just needed a simple adornment with this Lorelai Le Quillec brooch.
4.  Finally, the Joanie Clothing 'Avid Readers' jumper works with this old Fable and Black 'Drink tea and read books' badge.  I always like promoting reading!

I know some of you don't really like this style of dressing or accessorizing- that's cool, it just happens to be something I enjoy- it doesn't mean I regard anyone's dress sense as any different to mine. But, which one might be your favourite?

  4. I always love your 5 brooches posts, even when there aren't 5 but 6 ;-) Love that you used the bee brooch as a button, I have been known to do that as well. Finally, my favourite, beyond any doubt, is the cute face brooch! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! xxx

  5. I love brooches, so no judgment here, Kezzie! I think we have the same bee pin (your 2nd one)! I like pins that are either bugs/critters/animals, or else abstract.

  6. The bee 🐝 would be my favorite one. We depends on bees to pollinate our food stuff to nourish us. What a marvelous creation from our Creator.
    Hugs, Julia
