Girls don’t want flowers…they want flower brooches. I’m telling you-it’s true. Just look at any stylish woman walking down the streets of New York, and you’ll likely see a textured or sculptural floral brooch sitting on her lapel.
In the past this accessory was most likely found in your grandmother’s jewelery box. brooches have a timeless allure that feels elegant yet old school as they were originally created to display wealth or help fasten cloaks. Now, girls are wearing them to brighten any outfit with personality. You’re more likely to see someone wearing track pants to add a feminine touch than a cloak.

Flowers may not be unprecedented for spring anymore, but when worn as brooches, they certainly feel different and less expected. I’ve even seen some people styling their floral tops or coats with one, which looks especially dreamy in the best possible way.

After all, the real appeal of quiet luxury (which is dying out every day) is that it made people feel fancy in a way that wasn’t too much. Flower brooches help achieve that essence without being so serious. It’s still fancy, but in a way that shows you like to have fun. Who needs to carry a bouquet when you can just wear it?
