How to Wear Velvet this Holiday Season

December 13, 2021 By Katie Rushton Leave a Comment

Velvet is a timeless classic.  Many of us have sweet, sweet memories of putting on our beautiful velvet dress with a satin ribbon sash, stockings, and patent leather Mary Jane’s for our yearly Christmas party.  Perhaps the days of ribbon sashes and patent leather Mary Jane’s have passed us by (though some of us might now have girls to dress up with these pretty things)….  BUT, wearing velvet is still fun when you are all grown up too!  And the holiday season is the perfect time to don that velvet and enjoy some merriment.

How to wear velvet this holiday season?  Glad you asked!  We had SO much fun putting together these velvet looks – updated for the time of year and trends.  We hope it gives you some inspiration as you reach for your favorite velvet piece this holiday season….  Or if you decide to shop for a fun new piece for your closet.  There are so many good things to choose from right now!

This velvet kimono is the perfect foundational piece for a beautiful monochromatic holiday look.  No need to put this piece away at the end of December though….  Wear this look right through January!

We LOVE an all black look – anytime really, but the holidays just lend themselves to it with all of the fun dinners out, cocktail hours, and extra date nights.  Enjoy this look this month and then again in February for Valentines Day!

A beautiful Christmas plaid pops with these pretty velvet ankle pants.  Pair with a gold heel or a mule with a little embellishment like these bow heeled mules.  And oh my goodness, the statement that these Madeline earrings bring to the look….  If you have been eyeing these like we have, now is the time to add them to your Christmas look!

Happy Monday gang! It’s been a Personal Shopping few weeks over here at ES, so we thought we’d share a little #behindthescenes of a recent Personal Shopping appointment that Katie R had with one of our guy clients!
.
Clients hire us for personal shopping for various reasons. Some just want a seasonal upgrade of a few new pieces. Some need looks for an upcoming business event or trip. Some need a complete overhaul of their wardrobe, and some needs looks for a planned vacation. Whatever the needs of our clients, a personal shopping appointment works a little like this….
.
1) We chat with our client to learn more about their needs and have them fill out an ES client form that gives us even more info.
.
2) We then schedule a date to get together for some shopping.
.
3) On the day of our personal shopping appointment, we arrive a little early to go ahead and pull pieces and looks for our client, so that when they arrive, they will have a dressing room ready for them to start trying on clothes.
.
4) During the personal shopping appointment, we help our clients determine what works and what doesn’t work. What fit works good for their body and what pieces will be good additions to their wardrobe. 
.
Reach out today if our stylists’ can help you with some personal shopping as we transition into a new season and clients are heading on business trips, preparing for summer vacations, etc!
