Vintage Rhinestone Clip

Ah, ladies, in case you're confused about the correct way to wear a pin or brooch, we suggest you  take your cue from French actress Anouk Aimee, below - the delicate clip at the neckline of her striped blouse is the perfect accoutrement to adorn a suit - a pant suit in this case - and is a feminine and unexpected way to bring attention where you want it - namely, your face. This silver toned half dome and starburst pin is set with clear facet cut rhinestones, and features a hinged two-prong clip to secure to your blouse or lapel. Measuring roughly 2" long by 1 1/2" wide, it is hallmarked 'Stanley Singer' on the back and is in excellent condition. $65
