For all of you Chicago ladies, I got my bridesmaid jewlery here and some brooches...not fancy stores, but the stuff is real swarovski crystals and such for cheap!

There is a wholesale district on Clark street in the city between Wilson & Montrose.  It looks a bit sketchy, but I promise, you can find some treasures here- clutches, brooches, jewlery, scarves...etc.

I bought these for my bridesmaids- the bracelets were around $5 each, earrings were between $2-3 each, brooches were $5 each- I got them the jewlery on the cheap and bought them a really nice necklace elsewhere (just so you know I'm not a total cheapie..haha) but if you're willing to take the time and not judge a book by it's cover, these stores have some great finds!  Without further ado...

I love this brooch! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for sharing.
