Velvet

I was just going through my closet. I found three gorgeous velvet shirts from the Q.

One was brown and black silk burn out from Koos, One was burgandy and was from silk something or another. and one was navy from the same place. Maybe silk impressions. Too lazy to trek upstairs to look.

I will have them cleaned so I can wear them, maybe with black "velvet" leggings.

I haven't worn them in years, so it will be like have new.

The quality is lovely!

I am with you, @hennypenny! I just bought a D&Co blouse (H235712) and a SG pair of pants (A4550) and honestly, I think I could wear velvet every day. No reason not, to, of course, but then it wouldn't be as special!

@hennypenny Your post makes me remember all of the wonderful things QVC used to sell as far as many different designers.

Koos in his apron, now that's a blast from the past. It should be fun updating them with the leggings and some modern jewelry.

They are very current looking. A cross between Anthro and Sundance. I can't wait to wear them.

Hennypenny,

You could wear the shirts with jeans also and dress them down with style.

Enjoy, you will look great!

calcgirl, Oh, I will for sure. Yesterday I was wearing dark jeans and a white IM t-shirt when I was doing the closet and tried them on that way. Loved the look, will use a thinner shirt under though.
