i had mixed feelings when i saw that velvet was in this season. my immediate reaction was sheer terror because my mind immediately went to this:
the dreaded crushed velvet leotard. this leotard instills fear in any woman who grew up participating in gymnastics.
once the flashbacks subsided, i learned how to appreciate velvet, that is when it's being worn outside of a gym. my first velvet purchase was this cute shirt from forever 21:
things that are great about this shirt:
1. the pattern is the only part about this shirt that is velvet aka no velvet overload.
2. you can wear this shirt with jeans to go out or put a blazer on top of it and wear it to work.
3. the color is an amazing shade of dark navy that almost looks black in some lighting.
here are some other ways you can wear velvet:
and my personal favorite, the velvet pantsuit:
