Using jewelry pins is a great way to accent your wardrobe and define your style. And vintage pins are both easy to find and fun to shop for. Whether you prefer fine jewelry or fun funky fashion there are tons of pretty vintage pins, or brooches, that will be sure to get you compliments where ever you go. Here are 10 and creative ways to wear your vintage treasures in ways you may not have thought of.

6) Try wearing a bold brass pin on a plain belt for a classic yet trendy style.
7) Pin the side or brim of your hat up with a colored pin that coordinates with your outfit of the day. Or place a couple around the band.
