Experimental look

       Velvet is one of my most favorite fabrics. I remember my mom had a beautiful velvet black dress which she wore on special events with a string of pearls and black suede heels. It was a very classic and traditional way of wearing velvet. I was little and at that time I was dreaming that one day I would repeat my mom's image in my life. Of course, I did it when I was in my thirties... But at that time, the only way of wearing velvet was nights out or formal events.

      Since then the fashion has changed a lot and many rules have been broken. Now we have a great option to experiment with mixing different styles and fabrics, prints and colors. And I am happy that velvet has become a big trend for this year and not only for nights out and special events.

      I bought this skirt thinking to try it in different ways. Of course, it goes perfectly with a sequin top and black heels, very festive and traditional look. But I couldn’t wait to go further and try it with something I would not even imagine putting together twenty years ago. I really wanted to make this skirt work in a casual way. That’s why I chose a casual knit sweater and high knee combat boots to balance out the festiveness of velvet look.

      I really wanted to repeat my idea in reality after I talked about it in Glossyu.com post here. And it seemed that I was able to put my idea into practice. 

      What do you think about my experimental look?

    I love the look. I bought a burgundy velvet top last year with an asymetrical bottom and sequins along the hem. I have worn it for dress-up occasions and also just to be more festive on other occasions.
