And One More Style Tip That Shows How Useful Velvet Is!
Velvet is such a lush and luxurious material! Over the last two holiday seasons, I ran a series of style tips and outfit ideas for velvet including posts on skirts, dresses, kimonos, dusters, tops, jackets and blazers. I’m ending this year’s holiday season with one more style tip that shows how useful velvet is. Age doesn’t matter. This fabric is timeless and transformative.
One More Style Tip for Velvet
Style Tip: Elevate your outfit with a velvet blazer or shirt jacket.
Use this outfit formula whether you are going to relax with a casual evening at home or go out for a big evening. For a special evening at home, a velvet shirt jacket over a t-shirt and jeans or over cozy loungewear suddenly takes the ordinary to the extraordinary. For a big evening out, a velvet blazer adds a touch of luxe to trousers or a fancy skirt. And then there are all sorts of variations in between. Toss a velvet blazer or shirt jacket over anything. The sky is the limit (and your imagination)!

I love a solid velvet top, it feels and looks so luxurious. You’ve got some great choices.
A solid-color velvet blazer is a good coverup and can be slimming, too, no matter the color whether fastened up if it’s on the longer side or left open over a column of color.
The blue velvet laser that you recommended last year. Is it the same one you’re showing in this article? I love it!
Oops, I bought the blue velvet blazer, not laser
It may have been. Did you buy the blue velvet blazer from Etsy?
Velvet is just so luxurious, and it feels amazing against the skin! I love your picks, Angie!
The velvet blazer is a handy topper anytime from fall through the holidays. It can be added to a day outfit to take you out in the evening, whether you were wearing jeans and a tee or a dress. And it’s great for going out to a restaurant. I’ve got to remember to use this style tip for myself more often!
