Green Velvet

G R E E N V E L V E T / /

Something about this green velvet dress immediately caught my attention. It’s not a typical color or fabric or even cut that I tend to gravitate towards, but with the simple silhouette and flattering neckline, I new it was a versatile piece that could be worn in multiple ways!

Originally, I had planned to wear this dress with a ruffle sleeve shirt under, but my plans were scratched when I realized it would have created some lovely lumps and bumps under the dress. When I figured out that I was able to wear a real bra (!), I opted to wear the dress as advertised. It has a great lining that really helps in supporting and smoothing in all the right places. With straps that don’t fall of your shoulders and built in spanx, it may have me converted to a bodycon girl! Of course I kept it modest in my own way, and added balance with my go to heeled over the knee boots and favorite black coat. Top if off with a clutch and a sparkly necklace and I am date night ready!
