Lady That Lounges
Some fabrics are simply designed for luxe, comfort & lounging goodness, and in my humble opinion, there are few garments more comforting than those contstructed from velvet. It's subtle gleam and regal colour palette is the stuff of dreams for a leisure-loving lady like myself - and somehow this rich fabric doesn't drown me in the Australian Summer. Velvet wardrobe asap please.
I love the 90's, more edgy feel that velvet provides - there is something very 'The Craft' crossed with 'Romy & Michelle' about it. Velvet has also made a roaring comeback recently so you will be able to find a piece to suit you from pretty much anywhere right now (Witchery, Country Road, H&M).
This dress was purchased when I visited Thailand in 2014. It's a stunning, plunging V-neck desing with splits at the thigh. You are able to find a similar cut via ASOS or Forever New at this time of year in Australia. These snaps were captured for me by Matty in our gorgeous Fashion Week Airbnb in Newtown earlier this year!
