Style guide: How to go about velvet outfits

This soft, heavy, and mess-free material can be styled in many ways to create some inspiring looks for different occasions. Here are some ideas.
Styling velvet blazers
The easiest way to ace the look is by wearing something casual (a simple tank top or camisole) underneath your velvet blazer to make maintain style yet be comfortable. Pair the blazer with classic black jeans. You can also pair velvet blazers with turtleneck tops. Another option is to get the same colored velvet trousers and make it a suit.
Styling velvet dresses
A simple velvet dress paired with jewel accessories is like a dream match. Add short-heeled booties and a starlit clutch to keep the ensemble interesting. Another option is to layer a strappy dress over a plain t-shirt for a modern and casual twist. Velvet dresses also look great with jackets, which can keep you warm while adding some flair to your outfit during winter.
Velvet skirts can be paired with various tops
The best approach to wearing something you're not familiar with is to combine it with classic, non-trendy pieces like denim, or cotton shirts. You can also pair it with intricate fabrics. Another option is to pair the skirt with a nice shimmery crop top. Strappy low heels will give it a nice touch. Now, accessorize with a '90s-inspired bag to complete the ensemble.
Try velvet chokers
Velvet chokers look best when worn with a flowy day dress or a loose jumper for a laid-back and trendy style. Choose one with a smaller breadth, since it will be more modest. You can also use chokers that mimic bolo ties or ribbons if you do not want to make a very bold choker choice.
How about a pair of velvet boots?
Ankle-length boots made of velvet mix opulent luxury with a vintage rock 'n' roll vibe. To showcase the plush look while keeping things cool and casual, pair them with some metallic trousers or boot-cut jeans. Velvet boots often feature platform heels, which aim to provide a comfortable boost in height. They also pair well with flowy dresses or midi skirts.
