Velvet

velvet is the perfect fabric

to add luxury to your winter wardrobe

and it works for day or night

or a velvet midi skirt with a knit

add a modern twist

pair velvet with light fabrics

like silk or cotton

for evening go all out

velvet doesn’t have to be formal

but velvet is always fun

wear velvet and you’re up for a party

velvet is nostalgic too

reminds us of our childhood
