From Chloe\u2019s corduroy overalls to Givenchy<\/a>\u2019s gothic dresses, it is no doubt that velvet returned to the runway with a vengeance. While wearing velvet in 2015 can look modern and quirky, it can quickly turn into a hot mess, leaving you looking outmoded.<\/p>

Avoid the \u201cTotal\u201d Look<\/span> <\/h2>

Especially with velvet, the key is knowing how to strike a balance. Unless you\u2019re an ultra-sharp fashionista or a Vogue It-girl, mere mortals should avoid draping themselves head-to-toe in velvet<\/a>.<\/p>

Make a Choice<\/span> <\/h2>

Dip your toe into velvet by picking one piece to work with: a pair of pants, a skirt or a jacket. This will give your look the retro touch without overdoing it. It is also essential to contrast your heavy velvet pieces with lighter, more sheer materials. For starters, try pairing a classic white shirt with a ribbed skirt or a sleeveless velvet dress for a chic preppy look.<\/p>

Play with Accessories<\/span> <\/h2>

The less adventurous can rock the velvet trend too. The subtlest way to try on velvet is through accessories<\/a> like shoes or bags. A pair of coloured velvet boots along with your favourite pair of denims and a big comfy sweater will leave you looking effortlessly en vogue. If you\u2019re feeling playful, opt to dress your hair with a velvet scrunchie for a vintage look that will take you back in time.<\/p>
