Okay, so this little purple beauty arrived today and I'm OBSESSED. First off, the packaging? Adorable. Came in a cute gift box that made it feel luxe even though it was super affordable.

The brooch itself is dainty but makes a statement - the rhinestones catch the light just right without being tacky. I pinned it to my denim jacket and instantly felt 10x fancier. My coworker asked if it was vintage!

What surprised me most was how versatile it is. Wore it to work, then switched it to my black clutch for dinner and got compliments both times. The clasp feels sturdy too - none of that flimsy cheap jewelry nonsense.

Only tiny gripe? Wish the lavender stems were slightly more flexible for draping on curved surfaces. But for under $10? Absolute steal. Already planning to buy another as a bridesmaid gift!
