She Wore (blue) Velvet

I remember going into school to the Christmas party wearing my special black, velvet sequinned dress. 

It's a classic wintery fabric. (yes, winter!)

And this season is no exception.

Velvet is in abundance on the high street with the addition of the oxblood colour trend, their a perfect match, resulting in some beautiful fuzzy pieces!

Below are a few of my favourites. 

Velvet by emilyrodgers18 featuring a pleated bodice dress

The inspiration behind the title was the lovely Lana's song Blue Velvet. Featured in the new season H&M advert which she is currently endorsing. 

I am mad for this song, its so mesmerising, could listen to it all day.

Chanel Couture Favourites

Karl has done it again. Back to basics Chanel Couture featuring traditional tweed and designer beanies. A subtle mixture of a grey, cream, pink, black, palette with even some velvet, sparkly tights, woollen clutches and a couple of gorgeous gowns thrown in. Here are my favourite look from the show, setting the style for Auntum/Winter 2012/13. 

Now, obviously I wish I could put a whole lot more up, the collection was beautiful, but I had to be cut throat here, my absolute favourite is the amazing white organza gown with a feathery, fluffy, overcoat with embellishment and risen feathered collar, it is stunning!
