Wearing Velvet for Valentines






Skirt: c/o Sans Souci | Top: Forever 21 | Boots: Similar | Choker: Aldo similar | Rings: c/o Mejuri

...

Valentines Day is just around the corner so I thought it would be fitting to share an outfit idea that could be used for more than just Valentines. 

Velvet has been super hot lately and with all the different types of clothing and accessories that come in velvet the options for styling are endless. Since I'm still new to the velvet game (I know kinda late!) I thought I would start by styling something neutral and versatile. 

There are a few reasons why I love a tight midi skirt. You can dress it up for a night out (like pictured above) or you can layer it with your favorite knit and some sexy fishnet stockings for an easy-to-wear weekend look. Throw on a pair of casual sneakers and you have yourself a super cute yet comfortable ensemble. 

For today's look, I decided to style my velvet skirt with a fitted neutral body suit, sock booties and a thick jewelled choker for some ultra glam. 

If you're not feeling as bold with showing off your gams, you can always opt for wearing dark tights for a subtle, more reserved look. 

What I really like about this outfit is that it can work for more than just Valentines Day as the color scheme is neutral enough and it's not over the top fancy. 

Do you have an outfit planned for Valentines Day yet? What do you think of the Velvet trend?

  40. You look gorgeous my dear! Unfortunately I don't have any plans tomorrow as my hubby works away Mondays to Thursdays but we will have our Valentines Day at the weekend. One good thing about the work situation is now I have a few days still to decide what to wear. I LOVE Velvet, I am happy it has come back around as I have a velvet dress that I've had for four years or so now and it's the prettiest shade of blue. I hope you have a lovely day tomorrow and I am sure your hubby will love this outfit! xxx

    1. Sometimes it's nice to celebrate on a day where no one else is celebrating because it's less busy! We actually ended up celebrating the day before Valentines and it was so easy to get a table. I didn't even end up dressing up and we met up straight after I finished work lol!
