Velvet is…

Velvet is the modern day blue suede shoe.



Velvet is badass.





Velvet is the miserable weather answer to water-damaged suede.




Velvet is warm.


  
And as per J.Crew's similar ode to the plush fabric, velvet is rock ‘n’ roll.








How do you feel about velvet?

  1. Love. Velvet has always intimidated me due to bad memories of holiday dresses my mom used to force me to wear as a kid. But now velvet on your shoes....so not overpowering and has enough pizzaz to get heads turning. Thanks for the inspiration!

  2. Thanks Chelsea! Velvet used to remind me of white tights and Mary Janes too until these boots came along. J.Crew makes a similar pair but if you want to go ham, they also have statement-making blue glitter booties.
