Brooches and pins
Brooches & pins: the essential accessory to personalize an outfit (and give a memorable gift)
Brooches and pins are essential accessories: they instantly transform a jacket, coat, sweater, bag, or cap, effortlessly and without changing the entire outfit. They also make a simple, stylish, and easy gift idea for any occasion.
In this category, you'll find a wide selection of ready-to-wear brooches and pins : cute, vintage, mystical, symbolic, colorful, or more minimalist styles, to collect or wear as a statement piece.
Why are brooches & pins (really) essential?
- Instant personalization : a single pin is enough to give character to an outfit.
- Easy to wear : over a jacket, shirt, coat, tote bag, backpack…
- Collection effect : we accumulate them, we combine them, we change them according to our mood or the season.
- Perfect gift : low budget, “wow” effect, very personal (theme, symbol, color).

- Enamelled / coloured : glossy finish, very visible, ideal for grouping.
How to wear a brooch or pin (without damaging your clothes)?
- On thick fabric (coat, jacket, jeans): perfect hold, very clean finish.
- On knitwear : choose a stable area (near a seam) and avoid areas that are too loose.
- On bags : tote bags, backpacks, pouches… excellent support, very durable.
- In accumulation : 2 to 5 pins close together, or an “alignment” on a jacket lapel.
DIY usage ideas (simple and effective)
- “Bag charm” brooch : attach your brooch to a strap or band to personalize a bag, pouch or case.
- Thematic layering : create a mini “collection” (mystical, love, animals…) on a jacket or coat, like a signature look.
- Ribbon pins : create a wearable accessory (ribbon/velvet) for a vintage style (necklace, bow, fabric bracelet).
Scenario: Choose three pins from the same theme (e.g., mystical), arrange them on a jacket lapel, and add a fourth statement pin in the center. The result: a personalized, cohesive look that's easy to change with the seasons.
