Age doesn't matter.
Would you like to add some variety to your usual business clothes? Accessories can accomplish that goal in simple, economical and classy ways. I have a few style tips to help you accessorize business outfits. The following tips begin with the most common and end with something more specific. You can be sure that you’ll polish and brighten your look when you try these ideas!
On hot summer days, when I have business to do or maybe a meeting or lunch with a friend, I like to create a cool summer suit from what I have in my closet. So I thought I’d share this style recipe with you so that you can benefit from it too. It can help you to feel comfortable while looking classy. Age doesn’t matter.
Today’s style tip was inspired by the book Hot Tips: 1000 Fashion & Beauty Tricks by Frances Patiky Stein.
This is the fifth in my series of outfit combinations created with velvet pieces. In the first four posts of this series, I shared outfit ideas for velvet jackets or blazers, velvet tops, velvet kimonos and dusters and a style tip too! Velvet is great for evening, holidays and even for lounging at home. It comes in all pant styles such as palazzos, crops and joggers. I have all sorts of ways to show you how to wear velvet pants for comfort and style. Age doesn’t matter. I hope it makes getting dressed a pleasure for you!

This is the second in a series of posts on velvet pieces, from jackets to tops, skirts, pants, dusters and kimonos. The first post of this series was a style tip using velvet pants or skirts (you can find it HERE.) As usual, I give you plenty of outfit ideas to make it easy for you to get dressed with style every day. You can wear velvet for the holidays, in the evenings, any day just for you. I’ll show you how to style your velvet jacket or blazer for every day of the festive season. Treat yourself to this soft material any time and especially during hard times. Age doesn’t matter.
As a casual alternative, you can substitute velveteen or velour. A black velvet blazer is a classic staple. If you feel better in navy, feel free to substitute that and think of it as your new black. And if you don’t go to many fancy events, you can get just as much use out of a casual version such as a kimono jacket, bomber jacket or even a jean jacket in velvet.
I’ll start with evening and holiday outfit combinations because that’s when we automatically think of wearing a velvet jacket. Then I will go on to special events, then business looks and then I will give you outfit combinations that are more casual. I will end with other ways to wear velvet jackets or blazers for any variety of situations.
But first, let me note the basic formula for wearing a velvet jacket or blazer and then give you a quick style tip:
