Buttons with safety-pin fasteners are strange accessories - they've always been considered the utmost kitschy - and can only be used in the most casual of situations. But that doesn't mean you can't have fun with them...
INFEASIBLE: Buttons you'd find on CafePress
Sure, there's a campy quality to all buttons (hell, the first ones were used in campaign promotions for politicians) but that doesn't mean you should wear something that looks downright schlocky. Word of wisdon: The printwork at CafePress is notoriously cheap, and don't forget literally anyone can upload their shitty photoshop of Lady Gaga's crotch hair (WS but NSFM). You would need to search for hours on CP to find anything the least bit designer. All of that and so many of the ideas are just incredibly tired: "I Heart Mix Tapes"? High Fidelity left theaters like 20 years ago, people!
Feasible:Buttons with nifty designs
I don't know what's going on in this button, but fuck it if it isn't pretty sweet. That and I admit to liking Legion of Doom. Merchlackey, unlike CafePress, produces high quality buttons, mostly for bands and other music acts, designed by artists. Believe me, you'll get noticed for a good reason if you wear something like this to your next house party.
