If there's one fall fashion trend that I simply cannot get enough of, it's velvet clothing and accessories. What was once reserved for winter holiday parties has now become an everyday staple. It's comfortable, easy to wear, and the most accessible way to feel and look oh-so-luxe.
Arguably the biggest trend of the season, velvet can be found in every single piece. Sneakers, hats, jackets, dresses, skirts, shirts, you name it. The best part about this trend is that it isn't a specific style or color, it's a textile, which allows it to pair with any sort of item you want to add to your wardrobe, even if it's a simple choker. Whatever piece of velvet you decide to wear, pair it with lace for a Victorian gothic approach, or take a more athletic spin on it to dress up your casual looks. You might even want to wear it on its own and dress around the velvet to let the fabric speak for itself.
If you haven't already, start stocking up on your favorite velvet pieces for the fall, because this is one trend that you don't want to miss out on. But if you don't know where to begin when it comes to jumping on the trending bandwagon, I've rounded up some perfect picks to choose from.
