4 new ways to wear velvet
Velvet — one of our fave blasts from the past — is back and better than ever. This soft fabric looks luxe and (yay!) will keep you warm. Here’s how to wear the ultra-smooth trend for day...or night.
We adore velvet flats adorned with bows for school—what better way to add a prepster vibe to your outfit?
Work ‘em for day: Skinny jeans, a striped tee and boyfriend blazer are all you need.
Rock ‘em for night: Pair with a mini and opaque tights. How chic.

A crushed velvet dress in bright blue is unexpected, yet totally pretty.Work it for day: Keep it simple with black tights, black blazer, and black flats.
Rock it for night: Make this dress the main attraction by just adding black tights and black booties.

Who says shorts can only be worn during the summer? Shorts with tights and a chunky sweater are so this second.
Work ‘em for day: Pair with dark tights, cute flats and a thick knit sweater.
Rock ‘em for night: Keep the tights. Add heels and a sparkly top to make it party-worthy.

Velvet leggings look crazy rich. They’re surprisingly versatile under a simple dress or with a big cardi.
Work ‘em for day: Pull on your fave sweater and flat boots for a comfy weekend outfit.
Rock ‘em for night: Throw on a tunic and fitted blazer. Top it all off with high-heeled booties.
