Ella Magnetic Brooch
Versatility and Glamour Wrapped up In a Dazzling Brooch
The film noir era is known for distinctive cinematography, stunning sassy heroines, cynical strong heroes, and jazzy harmonious music. Among the most influential jazzy singers is Ella Fitzgerald. Her sound and contribution to the world continue to inspire.
She is quoted as saying that she is “no glamour girl…”, I beg to differ. I think she failed to see what the rest of the world saw – her natural beauty, talent, and commanding presence. Such elements easily make her a glamour goddess of her time.
Not only is her music incredibly lovely and influential, but her sense of style was also timeless. She had a love for a wide array of frocks, an affinity toward a long pearl necklace, and a preference for beautiful updos.
While she notably wore minimal jewelry, it is evident that the few pieces she chose to wear were well-chosen items. That is why I think she would have loved this brooch. It stands handsomely on its own, however, if a classic long pearl necklace were paired with this brooch the combination would certainly take any outfit to another level of elegance. If chosen by Ella, it would have dazzled elegantly in the background of her stage presence.
The Inspiration
This classic black bead brooch is named after Ella Fitzgerald for its impressive versatility and grace. The cluster of gray pearls that adorn the black glass cabochon set the stage for the vintage classic beauty elegantly. Black Swarovski Crystal bicones gracefully sparkle in the background of the pearl brooch. Whether you wear it on stage or to your office job, you can count that its versatility will grant you a myriad of heartfelt compliments.
How It’s Made
This magnetic brooch is handcrafted and designed by me, Jessica Fanny Gibson. I not only wanted to pay homage to the film noir era when designing it, and this handmade jewelry collection, but I also wanted to create something that one could wear without worrying about harming one’s clothes.
If you are anything like me, you take great pride in taking care of your garments as most pieces in your wardrobe are thoughtfully chosen. As such, you prefer to experiment with accessories such as scarfs, hats and, of course, jewelry. This piece can easily act as a magnetic scarf brooch to add a bit of interest to your outfit.
Don’t count on it to hold you’re scarf securely like a pin brooch would though as the magnet is not as strong as the pin. However, and wherever you choose to wear it, you can count on dazzling inside and out.
