I felt like a right prat for wearing a scarf and jacket a few days ago. What an idiot.
Velvet dress + jacket: H&M. Look at this dress from Anthro. Shoes: Stan Smith. Bag: Issey Miyake. Shades: Ray-Ban foldables. Scarf: Love Quotes. Necklace: PANDORA. Watch: Gucci
This was about two weeks ago ish before it got stupid cold (and it was a drive in thank God). Why can’t more dresses be made from velvet? It straddles the line between modern and vintage.
ps. A velvet trouser suit cut slim or oversized would be so badasss.
pps. My fascination with metallics continues…

I agree there are very few out there. I linked to one above that I LOVE. It’s not cheap though but by God I love it. Shame that they are few and far between

Hey, I really like your outfit, the dress looks great with these sneakers. 🙂
Do you wear these sneakers sockless as it looks like?
Karen says:
Sometimes I do

Words out my mouth on scrolling down and seeing the dress in all it’s glory, “bl**dy ‘ell, that’s bl**dy gorgeous that is”, great look, and now on a serious hunt for blue velvet. Cheers Karen for sharing.

Hi – this is such a great look on you! Is the jacket current? Is it leather? Wondering if I should check H&M for it.
