The left.

This has been the standard for hundreds of years. Recently people have mistakenly worn them on the right (which is for name tags, so that when people shake your hand they can read your name, or have a visual reminder as introductions are made). You will notice that the Queen of England always wears her pins and brooches on her left side.

Additionally, they need to be placed appropriately, which is approximately half way between the shoulder and bust-line for women (or balanced if the garment limits the ability to do so). Shapes should be placed so they are visually pointing up, animals should face the left shoulder, and birds, etc., should be turned so they aren't "flying into the face," etc. Small lapel pins (denoting affiliations) should be centered upon a lapel. Pins that anchor scarves can be center front or again, pinned on the left side.

How do you wear a lapel pin?

The lapel pin goes in the button hole that is sewn in the lapel. If there isn't one, then one goes about one inch down form the notch in the lapel and attaches the pin in that area. In other words, the pin should be attached about one inch down from the tie knot and about 4 inches over on the lapel. This pin should be a statement of some type, a religious symbol (if your position allows it) or a cause. It should be small, unobtrusive, and tasteful.
