Say hello to the trend that comes and goes like the wind; the velvet trend. It all started during the 12^th century when the Europeans fell in love with this fabric where it was associated with nobility. Later on, we saw a glimpse of the velvet trend in the glamorous vibes of the late 20^th century. And now in this fall 2016, we’re seeing the velvet trend in tons of collections.

Now that we know all about where the velvet trend originated from, the question is how do we style it? As we all can see, velvet clothing is very bold and eccentric so it might be intimidating to use it for everyday use. The trick is to style it with casual pieces and use little to no accessories. For work, you can try using a velvet blazer and pair it with jeans and a white blouse. If you’re looking for an edgy outfit, you can try a simple velvet skater dress and complete the look with a dark lip and black booties. In addition, you can try using lighter shades for a softer look.

You might be worried since the fabric is so thick if you live in warm weather like me. Therefore velvet crop tops are the perfect option for you. Many celebrities like Kendall Jenner and Taylor Swift are wearing these. (Can you believe that in the Renaissance period the church only purchased velvet ?) Also incorporate light pieces like flowy skirts or loose blouses to keep your outfit as fresh as possible.

Still not into the velvet trend? Don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. If you don’t see yourself wearing velvet clothing there are many velvet accessories you can obsess over. There are velvet heels, bags, backpacks, and even sneakers! And my absolute favorite: velvet chokers.

We can see why the velvet trend has appeared throughout so many centuries. This beautiful trend can bring out the elegance of any outfit. Down below we have provided 30 velvet clothing and accessories options under $100.
