Hey guys! Merry December! Today I thought I'd pop on here and do a quick little outfit post. If you are like me that loves scrolling through Instagram to get new outfit ideas and style inspiration. You will most certainly understand what I am about to say next.I have been really inspired by a lot of Los Angeles based Instagram girls. Now before you say anything, yes, looking at their daily outfit post is kind of my guilty pleasure. Everything aside, you simply can't deny the fact that California girls just oozes self-confidence that is difficult to imitate.
Most L.A. girls are known for their barely their mini crop-tops, high-waisted skin tight jeans and fur coats, but today I'd like to talk about a fashion trend that has been here for a while, but has proven that it is here to stay, and will certainly continue to be one of the huge trends in 2018. You guessed it --- velvet.
When I first noticed that velvet clothing items are making a come back from the 90s, (some might say it's an 80s trend.) I am beyond ecstatic. Since then I've accumulated my fair share of velvet fashion items. Not only it is a super soft and comfortable material, with the right styling, velvet could easily elevate your entire outfit look.
I was scrolling through some pretty famous Instagram influencers' accounts (
Kelsey Calemine, Sydney and
Devon Carlson,
Olivia O'Brien, you get the idea.) when I realized that so many girls are wearing this velvet set outfit, possibly from Juicy Couture because they are known for their pink sporty velvet sets in the early 2000s(Mean Girls, right a bell, anyone?). I wanted to recreate this outfit and makes it into a more modern, edgy version.
I'm wearing this black velvet hoodie crop top which cinches at the waist, and I paired it with a high-waisted velvet pants with the same color. For shoes, I wear a pair of combat boots from Forever 21. Lastly, to give my usual hairstyle a change, I put on a Burberry plaid baseball hat that I recently purchased. I love this outfit simply because of how easy and effortless to pull off, it not only keeps me warm and comfy, it is also a super edgy and bad-ass look for the winter time.

To me, this is the perfect outfit whenever you are feeling lazy and don't want to spend time figuring out what to wear but still wanna look good. Especially during winter time, we all have that moment in the morning when we just want to curl up in our beds and hide under the warmth of our blankets all day. The smooth and velvety texture almost feels like you are wrap in a blanket, the matchy, color coordinate set outfits have also been really trendy recently.You could easily see a lot of off-duty models wearing similar outfits like this as well.\
Alright, that's about it, let me know in the comments below if you are into this kind of outfits, and feel free to share some of your favorite winter style and fashion trends with me :) Stay cozy!
Beautiful

I love velvet. That's being said, I think I only own one piece, a pretty blue and black dress from Orsay.
It is definitely never easy to rock one of these. I definitely could not pull it off but I love how you styled it with all the different accessories! Very cute outfit, looks stunning.
ReplyDeleteGirl! I love your style. Velvet really looks chic on clothing but I shy away from them when it comes to shoes.
ReplyDeleteI really like the way you look. With all the majestic aura and short hair.
Take care!
