Velvet

Some people love it, some hate it. I’m talking about velvet, of course! No, not delicious red velvet cupcakes (sadly), but the soft fabric.

Velvet might be one of the most festive fabrics. Everything about velvet reminds me of Christmas, especially if it’s a red velvet. So yes, a velvet dress, a velvet top, or even velvet shoes or pants are perfect for the holidays. But now I want to show you that velvet can also work for a casual look. Velvet tops and blazers are in my opinion the clothes that could best be worn casually. They add a cool dimension and a luxury, rich feel to any look. There are also multiple types of velvet; crushed velvet, chiffon velvet, velveteen… enough to choose from!

To demonstrate this fact – yes, it is a fact, just believe me on that 😉 – I added some of my favorite velvet looks down below. Check it out for holiday dresses, for chic looks, but also for more casual looks. As always, the link to buy an item and/or the name of the blog the picture is originally from are below the pictures. Check those out as well if you like the velvet items!
