Spotlight on Brooches

Back in the fall of 2004, my favorite ad campaign was for The Gap featuring Sarah Jessica Parker {above}. I was living in San Francisco at the time, home of The Gap. I have always loved brooches but this sent me into overdrive and I bought every one possible they had, and at shops in Chinatown where they were super cheap. Recently, I've seen a movie star here or there using brooches in their hair or on clothing, inspiring me to do the same. I think this fall, it will be another brooch year for me...channeling Sarah Jessica Parker's style {minus the long tie!}.

  4. I remember that Gap campaign! I think I bought the sequin scarf and a myriad of other Gap things that year. If SJP was wearing it, I wanted it.
