Thanks to the versatile brooch needle attachment, there are endless ways to style your KUMA butterfly. However, we do know from our own experience that some Mondays are more blue than others, which means that figuring out a new clever way to style your pair of wings can be a mission impossible. Not to worry, because today we will give you 10 different ideas on how to use your KUMA butterfly!
1. Wearing a Butterfly Brooch As a bow-tie
Let’s start from the beginning. Did you know that the initial idea for the KUMA butterfly was born when the creator of KUMA Mari Ojasaar was having brunch with her girlfriends? The story goes like this: one of her friends was wearing a white classic buttoned up shirt and a men’s bow tie. Although Mari liked the outfit, she felt that a bow tie was too masculine for her friend. After the brunch she still couldn’t get the image of the bow tie out of her head and started to think about how women could spice up white collars in a feminine way. That’s how she came up with the KUMA butterfly bow tie. So, of course, the number one way to wear your butterfly brooch is as a bow tie!
2. Wearing a Butterfly Brooch In Your Hair
Whether it’s a summer festival or another day at the office, KUMA butterfly brooches are perfect for adding that special little detail to your hair and making sure that you will stand out with your sense of style. You can even use them to add a bit of contrast to your overall outfit by making your hairpiece stand out to maximum effect.
