6th in a Series of Velvet Outfit Ideas: How to Style a Velvet Dress

Every year during the holiday season, between Thanksgiving and New Year, I do a series of festive outfit ideas. Last year, the series was on velvet:  velvet tops, velvet bottoms, velvet coverups and a style tip for how to wear velvet every day. You can find the links to these posts below this article.
