How Much Velvet is Too Much Velvet?

At the moment i am obsessed with velvet. The very word is gorgeous, it makes me think of luxury, of Christmas, of Henry VIII, of parties, of elegance, of rock bands, of cake, of secrets, of 90's grunge, glamour, childhood, riches, night-time, and all round gorgeousness. It's a fabric that is hard to find and hard to wear, easily over done but when you get it right, oh my you get it right.








I love the velvet leggings, trousers, dresses, jackets and skirts that are around and that they are not all in low-key black or mid-night blue or even the slightly more daring red, but also in FLORAL. I know that it may not be every one's cup of tea but I for one adore it.
