Velvet fabrics have always reminded me of the holidays, and I was happy to see colored velvet on the runway this season. Designers showed a range of  different interpretations of the same fabric and some are must- haves on my list this year.

My two favorite velvet pieces inspired by the fall runway looks:

Lord & Taylor, Cynthia Steffe Cap-Sleeved Crushed Velvet Dress $206.50

J. Crew, Velvet Eden Blazer $148.00

Lots of love,
