how to perk up an old outfit

I wear a lot of black tops because black makes me look slimmer is my favourite colour.   Sometimes when I’m in the mood, I would wear a necklace to jazz up my black outfit.  Then when I first saw Sewingmonster‘s flower brooch on the sling bag, I had an idea. Why not get a brooch for my black tops?   So, I asked the SewingMonster to please make me a flower brooch with the Japanese cotton fabric 🙂  I love this fabric.  Here is how it turned out 😀
