This is your guide to the best cozy holiday dress ideas in velvet!

You’ve seen me post about velvet dresses on my Instagram, in a previous blog post and now here again.  

A velvet dress for the holidays does not disappoint and knowing how to style and wear a velvet dress in the winter is super important! 

Velvet brings such richness and warmth to every look plus some sexiness!

Velvet is the fabulous fabric that I have been donning myself in all holiday season.

There are so many ways to style a velvet dress in the winter – with tights and a shiny shoe or with a low or high cut neckline.

There are so many amazing velvet pieces for your holiday dressing that come in several styles!

This low cut velvet dress was the perfect piece to shoot in Chinatown.  Velvet is a very moody fabric – which makes it great for winter: which is typically a little dark and cool. Chinatown had a very mysterious vibe to it and really accented this look.

Ever since I got back from Japan, I have been wanting to visit more of Asia and Hong Kong is at the top of my list – but luckily for me, NYC has a thriving Chinatown just an Uber ride away (you can’t take an Uber to Hong Kong right?!).  

Chinatown is full of pops of color mixed with city grit and the dark blue/green, of my dress, coupled with red (ya that’s a bralette!) were the perfect contrast to the Chinatown sights.  

My shoes were the perfect amount of pop and if you’re looking for a “wow” shoe for your holiday events, I highly recommend this one (or one that’s very similar!).
