I consider myself pretty minimalistic in style… nothing too statement making…. and during the holidays I like to keep things pretty much the same. Nothing over the top, but I do like to take it up a notch, slightly. In the past, I’ve opted for a silk jumpsuit with statement earrings (these are old posts), a statement making sequin skirt+ pants….. and looking back, I’ve yet to pull out a full blown dress for the holidays. While that might change this year (I haven’t ruled it out yet), right now, I’m kinda obsessed with these velvet ruffle pants. Perfect for the holidays (with a price that won’t break the bank for a few “fancy” wears). You can do so much with them, which makes them versatile for the entire holiday season. I opted to pair them with my favorite fuzzy sweater for a warmer, slightly more conservative look…. but you can easily pair it with a gorgeous lace cami, d’orsay pump, and a sleek velvet blazer for an edgier look (both of which I plan on repeating). And while I’m still undecided about if I’ll try a dress this year, one thing I know for certain is that velvet will be a key to all my holiday dressing…..

Some of my other favorite velvet pieces for the season include these velvet leggings, which would look great with my favorite velvet blazer and a white silk top underneath…. or this beautiful wrap dress…. this crushed velvet cami + skirt combo is one of my favorites for this holiday season (I own the cami) and I just snagged this gorgeous rust colored velvet blazer. I also love this blush button-up dress what I wore to TJ’s birthday dinner.
