Continuing my holiday style series today with this green velvet dress. (Currently sold out at Zara, but this is a killer dupe– go!) Velvet is huge right now, as you know by now because I won’t stop wearing it (exhibits A, B, and C). I layered a black turtleneck underneath to add some warmth (KC is cold right now, guys) and slipped on those sock boots from Thanksgiving. A necklace from Bauble Bar (one of my go-to’s for statement jewelry that doesn’t totally shred my bank account) and a cool druzy 2-finger ring from Kendra Scott is all I needed in the accessory department.
What I also love about this dress? It’s big + roomy. That means maximum consumption at Christmas dinner doesn’t change my comfort level in the slightest. Major score.
Shop the look:
If sock boots aren’t your thing, you could easily switch ’em out for a classic pointed toe pump (and maybe layer in a pair of tights if it’s cold). Another baller styling option: tall boots. That would a really cool, right-now vibe to the look.
Ooh I love the color of that dress. I need to get some velvet in my closet asap. It’s perfect for this time of year. And it needs to warm up around here!!
I am loving all the velvet lately! My sister just scored a similarly colored velvet dress and plans on wearing it on Christmas Eve. http://www.iamchiconthecheap.com/
That dress instantly put a smile on my face. It is so festive and lovely, And…I can’t believe this, girlfriend – another outfit so similar to one I have in the works. Just so you don’t say I copied 😉 – actually, you do inspire me! – I am soon to blog about my own velvet dress over another layer. Love those sock booties too!
