Decoded: How to wear a velvet outfit at work!

Velvet is a fabric that exudes prestige and class, and until recently was inextricably linked to evening or party looks. Nowadays, the boundaries between “morning” and “evening” textures are beginning to blur, confirming that velvet can be worn during the daytime and even in your workplace!

The corporate edition 

Who set the rule that in a corporate work environment, your attire should be extremely formal and unimaginative? It’s time to get rid of these stylistic “boxes” by trying to wear the trending fabric of the winter season! Start by investing in a comfortable, chic and elegant dress like the blue mini velvet dress by Max&Co – attica – and combine it with translucent black tights. Regarding your outerwear, choose the black long coat with lining – United Colors of Benetton – to give length to your silhouette. Enhance your professional image by choosing the black leather ASV bag by Armani Exchange – Rodanos – which is the right size for this purpose. Complete your corporate outfit by giving the same attention to the lower part of your look, with the super stylish and extra comfy black ballerinas with rhinestones by Moi Athens - Tsakiris Mallas.

The girl-boss edition 

Do you have your own company and want a renewed stylistic image for your day-to-day errands and business meetings? The solution lies outside your comfort zone and is called “bright velvet”! Being a freelancer, your style should be smart-casual and at the same time neat. Set a white or grey cotton T-shirt as a base and combine it with the fuchsia velvet jacket – Mango. Since your jacket is the key piece of your appearance, the rest of your look should be more “calm”. Therefore, the light blue denim pants in Mom Fit line – Calvin Klein Jeans – are an excellent choice. When comes to your bag, avoid nude shades, instead move to the fuchsia palette, and more specifically to burgundy with the burgundy Heritage shoulder bag – Kem. Finally, a pair of low pumps with a thick heel, like the tan leather Silia heels – Nak Shoes – is a must as it offers you the necessary comfort and retro fashion finesse!
