This brooch, which takes the form of a whimsical military medallion/medal, is a lot of fun. Made with a rhinestone centre piece and a vintage piece of French silk ribbon, I can see this adding just the right touch of panache to a jacket, coat or sweater. Of course, I would probably wear more than one; nothing succeeds like excess.
