70s floral brooch and gold bow brooch

60s compact
Recently I had to buy a succession of birthday presents (yes, birthdays, not christmas). It can sometimes be difficult to part with birthday gifts, In all honestly, I'm not a particularly good present buyer in all. I'm not so sure about the old theory that you should buy things you like, it makes giving the present difficult. I countered this by also giving myself a gift; a lovely brooch from the 20s-30s!

so many lovely things!
ReplyDeleteOooh, they're all so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSwellegant elegant!! hhahah what a great blog title. For some reason whenever I see the word elegant I always just read elephant so at first I was like swellegant elephant, but elephants are awesome so I thought that was good too!!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, I would like some presents please.
