As I peruse the odds and ends of the fashion scene, I always come back to the looks on the runways, and what the hottest stars are wearing. Stylists’ jobs are to dress their clients in the best of the best designers, trends, and haute couture, so we would all do well to imitate them. 

I also try to keep the piece seasonal, so, in our case, wintery. The runway shows may already be in Spring Resort 2018, but Milwaukee, WI is -5 degrees, so that’s what I’m focusin’ on. 

What is this $22 piece I keep raving about? I’m happy you asked: ladies, take a look at this amazing baby pink velvet shift dress from Nasty Gal (one of our fave stores). 

With a v-neckline, thin cami straps, and a fancy-shmancy back tie closure, this dress can’t be beat. A perfect dress to party in, it’s thin, easy to slide on, and gracefully slips over the angles of any body type. 

But, Maria, how do I wear this seemingly lightly lined dress in the wintertime? I know, I know, I hear you. That’s the thing about velvet — it’s not meant for warm weather! The fabric in it of itself creates warmth, so it’s perfect for colder times. However, since this dress is thin, I wouldn’t recommend snow shoeing or snow angels — hot toddies + fireplaces are more like it.

Channel your inner J.Law or Kendall and rock this piece on your next night out. Need some inspo? Check out my 3 velvet slip dress outfit ideas below. And, when in doubt, remember . . .
