Fashion Forward Fridays: Wearing the Mocking Jay

So since wearing my Mocking Jay & Pop of Red outfit, I've become obsessed with styling other outfits around the mocking jay pin. It just so easily brings an outfit together and adds just enough of that special something to each look. Here are three looks I created in Polyvore for how you could style the mocking jay pin. And whether you're a die-hard Hunger Games fan, or just like the look of this pin (like me), I'm sure you can appreciate how this little piece can bring an outfit to life.

This first look, the Casual Mocking Jay, is probably the one that someone would most likely wear. With this look you could either put the pin on a top layer of your scarf or near your shoulder on you actual sweater. With this look, while it is simple, I think the pin brings just the right amount of bling to an otherwise jewel-less outfit.

The Dressy Mocking Jay look is very minimalistic so that the pin could be a center piece so to speak. I love when I see women in just a plain dress and let their accessories do the talking, and this is what I wanted to accomplish with designing this dressy look. I love the way that pin is out on display and really, no other jewelry is needed to complete this outfit.

The final look, my Capitol Inspired look, is probably not likely to be seen in an everyday occurrence. But I love color and couldn't keep myself from creating a look inspired by the fabulous fashion from the movies. While I went without a headpiece, (which seems to be a priority for the women in the movies) I looked for one that wouldn't look too weird, it just didn't happen. Instead, I went with interestingly structured pieces with bold colors. I actually really love this look and just wish I had something fun to wear it to without looking too fashion forward.

Which is your favorite mocking jay pin look? How would you style this versatile pin?
