My favorite fabric for this fall is velvet! Soft velvet in deep shades of reds and rich browns tones are spot on for the usual festive fall colors, but this thicker material is also perfect for the transition from warm to cold weather.
The best way to wear this luxe fabric now is in a short dress. This seasonal piece paired with solid black tights is a great way to wear a dress in the cool fall months. If you feel adventurous try patterned black tights or even a patterned velvet for your dress. These options mix both timeless and trendy. However you wear it this look is sophisticated and classic, so you are sure to get multiple seasons out of any velvet piece you purchase.
Some other ways to wear this chic material is in a classic blazer, simple skirt, or form-fitting pants. A very now way to wear velvet is in shoes as seen in the September issue of People Style Watch. Whether it is a lady-like pump or a bold wedge, this trend is heart-stopping and eye-catching.
No matter how you wear it or when you wear it (night or day), velvet is sure to make you a style stand out during this seasonal shift.
