Bluer than velvet was the night

I love the velvet trend that's going down at the minute. I love the texture of velvet. I love how it adds an edge to an outfit. I love the way it transforms a colour. I just love velvet. However, I have an issue with the material as it tends to start losing it's soft, smooth feel after a few months of washing. I also don't like the idea of velvet shoes as they would get absolutely destroyed in the English Winter from the rain!

But, I've picked out some velvet textured items that I think look absolutely beautiful. 

1. ASOS Large Frame Purse in Midnight Velvet £18

2. New Look Black Velvet Strappy Swing Dress £19.99

3. Topshop Grey Crush Velvet Skater Skirt £30

4. Missguided Ofelita Velvet Skater Dress in Cobalt £19.99

4. Missguided Gretina Velvet Split Mini Dress £19.99

5. Rozie Velvet Skater Skirt £12.00

So those are my picks for the velvet trend. I'm thinking that I might pick up one of the Missguided dresses as I think they're beautiful colours and will be perfect for Christmas. What do you guys think?
