Yes. Velvet is coming back this fall and it’s no longer reserved for girls under the age of 12. Use velvet in your wardrobe to create sophisticated looks that are classic and feminine with a hint of toughness. The runway was full of this luxurious fabric this season with dresses, blazers, and even pants from designers such as Marc Jacobs, Fendi, Armani, DVF and more.
Can’t afford designer prices? Try these vintage pieces from Avant Gaudy.
Style Tips: Be careful not to overkill the trend by wearing too much. One statement piece of velvet is enough for an outfit. Try a velvet blazer over skinny jeans and a sheer romantic blouse under to avoid feeling stuffy. Try a shorter jacket over a frilly dress to add a bit of edge. A velvet dress with a pair of heels makes for perfect evening attire.
You know what my favorite kind of velvet is? RED VELVET CAKE! SO good. Here’s an awesome recipe from allrecipes.com.
