Tops: Forever21 (similar).  Velvet leggings: JBrand.  Boots: Thrift/vintage. Bag: Alexander Wang more colours here. Hat: Makins hats. Blazer: Zara
The Other Way When It’s Colder:
How To Wear velvet leggings For Autumn

 

1. Topshop motor tweed jacket
2. JBrand Velvet leggings
3. All Saints Jesper beanie
4. Ray Ban Wayfarers
5. Milly Emerson croc bag
6. Alexander Wang Lina 2 shoes
7. Bad Gal eye kohl

I did a collaboration with JBrand and Polyvore with me showing how I’d style 4 of JBrand’s Autumn pieces.  The first are these velvet leggings.

Been wanting velvet skinnies since last year and I’ve worn these a couple of times already.  I kinda like the idea of them soon with an oversized straight cut jacket like the above outfit collage.

ps. Photoshop made my head hurt so I’ve been using Polyvore for collages for a few months now.

If you use it too, show me how you would style these leggings.  LMK your username on there.  Mine is karenbritchick. I’m sort of amazed at how good some of you are on there, creating magazine-like collages.  #futureeditors

    Love this look especially the wine lipstick and mix of colors! I made a pair of black velvet high waisted leggings this past spring. This is a good reminder for me to get some more material in a new color. Best wishes with everything that you are doing!

      Def experiment w diff materials. It’s nice to pit denim on the back burner sometimes 🙂
