Two of my favorite fashion trends are making their way onto every store mannequin for this winter season. Even if you don’t keep up with the trends religiously, you can’t miss the plethora of velvet and leather.

If you take anything from this article it should be that if you are stuck with a holiday party outfit, dinner outfit, birthday outfit, etc. you couldn’t go wrong with velvet or leather!

The best pieces for leather are skirts- envelope, mini, or pencil, pants, boots (of course), and shorts.









My favorite look for the winter season is leather shorts, a leotard,and sparkly tights. Leather allows you to keep your look classy and simple yet elegant- perfect for a night out in the city!

The best pieces for velvet are leotards, blazers, and dresses.

This adds a more eye-catching appeal to your look without being over the top with something like sequins.

The best part about these two trends is that they can be paired together. A classic velvet top with a leather skirt and knee rise suede boots should be your go-to nighttime outfit. Mix and match colors, accessories, and hairstyles to change up the look from night to night.

Fashion repeats itself

My mom would tell me all of the time that high waist shorts can be super cute, of course I never believed her until they were in every store and became a timeless trend. Now velvet and leather takes fashion back to the 80s.

So next time that you go shopping, find your leather and velvet pieces that can mix and match to go with just about anything.

Go to stores like Forever 21, Zara, H&M or even order online from Tobi or LuLu’s. You can get really great pieces for awesome prices. Once you have these simple, yet necessary pieces, you will be prepared for your next event!

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together.
