Night Shorts

Sorry for the inside shots but it was evening time when I dressed in this before hitting the town (okay, I went to the movies and consumed my weight in popcorn but same thing...right?). I’ve been getting a lot of wear out of this little vintage velvet jacket that I scored in one of my favorite hometown second hand/vintage clothing haunts. It’s just such a cute piece and works well for evening and day wear.








shorts: F21 / shoes: Tory Burch / jacket: vintage via Decadence in Edmonton / top: ModCloth / leggings: American Apparel

Here are a few more of my velvet loves…

I love the outfit, what did you see at the movies?

I rarely indulge in the movie theater treats anymore, my fiance hates popcorn - yes, he is weird.

I love the velvet blazer. I love velvet in any application really.
