Every year during the holiday season, between Thanksgiving and New Year, I do a series of festive outfit ideas. A few years ago, the series was on velvet: velvet tops, bottoms, coverups and a number of style tips, including how to wear velvet every day. You can find the links to these posts below this article. How to Style a Velvet Dress is the sixth in the series. It is now updated to provide you with the highest quality content. I hope it will help you to make your dress more versatile, as it can take you from day to evening throughout the Fall and Winter months. In fact, a velvet slip dress can work year round!

As part of my Fall/Winter Evening Series, I’m adding this post on how to wear a sequin top or topper because they are look makers. And I surely wouldn’t do without my sequin t-shirt! Actually, I consider a sequin tee an essential wardrobe item for day, night and year round. It’s that versatile and so much fun!
Besides the t-shirt, I also own a couple of sequin tank tops, a number of long-sleeve sequin tops and a sequin shirt. The long-sleeve tops are great for layering day or night, so they’re pretty useful. I reserve the shirt for evening wear, but it doubles as a jacket when left unbuttoned so I consider it worth having. It makes a sequin jacket or blazer unnecessary for my casual lifestyle. All these items do come in handy often enough for me to recommend them as part of an evening wardrobe.
Age doesn’t matter. Older is bolder, so go ahead and sparkle whenever you get the chance!
