Happy Sunday! Lavender is one of my all time favorite colors, especially to wear. I recently cleaned out my makeup collection, only to re-fall in love with one of my favorite lipglosses, ‘Pink Steam‘ by Marc Jacobs (that my fantastic sister gifted to me last year for Christmas!). I decided I wanted to wear it this week and was elated to realized it matched perfectly with my new lavender velvet skirt that I recently ordered. Lavender is a color that I typically associate with spring time, but I adore the thought of breaking it out in the winter time for a soft, feminine ensemble.

When I stumbled upon this affordable velvet skater skirt a few weeks ago online, I knew I needed it for winter. I purchased mine in a petite 2, and I would definitely say it runs very true to size (though I wish I would have went down a size- petite sizes can be tricky). This gorgeous skirt also comes in several colors including a festive red. I am definitely planning on ordering another color, and my sister is planning to pick up one as well! If you are looking for the perfect velvet skirt, look no further.

I decided to pair the skirt with a solid black Nordstrom turtleneck top, black tights, and my favorite black Prada booties. I think this look would also look stunning with a black fur jacket or statement necklace for a night out! I can’t wait to rock this skirt all season.
