Velvet

A key look this season is luxury and glamour and a material that encapsulates this trend perfectly is velvet. I personally love velvet and the many things that can be done with this versatile material. It can be used for all types of clothing from dresses to shorts and bags to shoes. And there are so many ways of wearing it too, whether you go for a completely glamourous look with a velvet evening dress or if you incorporate it into your everyday outfit with a pair of velvet shorts or a velvet accessory. A style I think that looks great with velvet is a sort of grungey style - I love that look of velvet shorts, ripped tights and Dr Martens. Colours to look out for are wine, forest green and navy.
