With OTK Boots

This look was inspired my Saturday night date! Currently I own 2 velvet dresses. One burgundy & this teal beauty! I am slowly starting to love them more & more each time I walk in my closet! My mom said the other day, “who would’ve thought velvet would be back in style!? — or did it ever really go out?” haha, good question Leslie! Who really cares though, because it’s back now!!! I’ve seen these dresses worn so many different ways & it got me thinking how would I wear it! Since I shot this look Saturday I told C, “let’s glam it up!” So I paired my black OTK boots with it, Tory Burch cross body, and left my hair down! I actually really, really liked this look! (maybe even enough to wear it again this week!)

With Sneakers

Originally I didn’t really want to get dressed up.. It was so cold this past weekend I just wanted to stay in & stay warm!!!! but that velvet dress just kept staring at me in the closet.. so I thought, “How do you dress down a velvet dress?” boom – with Adidas sneakers.. but since it was date night I knew I probably shouldn’t wear sneakers to the nice restaurant.. however, I knew I wanted to share both these ways with y’all! I think something about a dressy dress & casual kicks is super chic! like a sporty, feminine look! This is something I would probably wear in NYC this week!! good walking shoes + a good dress = just makes ya feel good!

Which way is y’alls favorite!? Do you prefer sneakers? heels? boots? booties? flats? sandals?

any way.. this dress is killa &&& I LOVE IT!
