I WOULD DRAPE MYSELF IN VELVET IF IT WERE SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE – GEORGE COSTANZA

Guys, the Fashion Week runways are overflowing with VELVET, and I’m loving every second of it.  Why, you ask?  Well, read my post about how to look chic while wearing pajamas where I also explain how I spent an entire semester of college wearing an orange Hofstra hoodie and black velour sweatpants…velour, the poor man’s velvet.  But velvet?  It’s just so luxe.  I think I first considered velvet as a wardrobe choice after watching THIS episode of  Seinfeld because, guys, velvet IS a choice.  It’s not easy to pull off but I’m absolutely going to venture out and try to “drape myself” as often and as much as possible.
