Men's Brooches At The 86th & Now 97th Oscars

If we learned anything from the Oscars this year it is that brooches are back. Who wore them best? Tyler Perry and Usher. That's right. These men brought the vintage-inspired glamour to the red carpet. We especially loved Tyler Perry's large diamond bar pin. Don't get us wrong, this is not Tyler Perry dressing as Madea. This is a dapper statement worthy of a man's wardrobe. 

If we were dressing Perry, we would recommend this piece from our Cynthia Findlay Collection.

Usher also dazzled with a retro style diamond brooch at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards.

For those wishing to jump on this trend, we recommend this piece from the Cynthia Findlay Collection.

John Landis Visit Our Store

We loved having John Landis and Stephen Furst in our store last week. They were in town for the John Landis retrospective at TIFF. While in Toronto, we were honoured to have a shopping visit from Mr. Landis and hear some of his filmmaking stories.
