This is how to wear velvet to every holiday party

 

One of winter's biggest trends is giving us *all* the feels, literally. Soft, crushed velvet is perfect for all of your holiday parties, whether you're a girly girl who loves all things lacy and ruffled or more of a rocker chick who can't get enough leather in her life. Peep our styling inspo below to deck yourself out in this dreamy must.

Who says crop tops should only be for summer? Pair a lush velvet one with a girly tulle skirt for a whimsical effect.

Velvet doesn't have to be super feminine. Give yours an edge by tossing on a tough-girl leather jacket before heading out the door. 

Layer velvet shorts over dark tights, then top them with an oversized, slouchy sweater. You'll be cozy *and* cute. 

Make a serious statement with full velvet pants. Keep the rest of your outfit simple (a white or black basic top will work and minimal bling) to let your bottoms do the talking. 

We heart this combo of on-trend pieces. From a pleated velvet midi to a flirty lace top and envelope clutch, this outfit is begging for an Insta #OOTD pic. 

Skater dresses are flattering on almost *everyone*. Play up your festive frock with accessories galore (think: long pendant necklaces and lots of midi rings).
