14 Feb Turning Heads Linkup- Valentine’s Day Look with Velvet and Lace

Posted at 01:00h in Fashion, Link Up by

Hi Friends!

Happy Valentine’s Day! I do have to say, we don’t usually make a big deal out of it, but we did enjoy an event at near-by Raylan Vineyards this weekend. Wine, truffles, food were all a part of the festivities and you don’t need to ask me twice if I want to go! We took the puppies after their grooming day, in their red bandanas, and I was so excited to be out with them sitting outside! One step closer to nicer weather, perhaps.     I am hoping to do some Vineyard reviews and posts on the blog this year, as I have mentioned in the past, we have 90+ vineyards in the NC area, plenty around us and we enjoy bopping around.

I had worn red last week, and thought about wearing some berry and brown tones. Maybe I was thinking of the truffles or cherry cordials when I put together this look! ha.   Anyway, as you know my fondness for combining textures in the fall-winter is present here, as I began the look with a brown wrap blouse and berry toned lace skirt from Ann Taylor, I bought a few years ago. I decided to add my burgundy velvet blazer, I purchased on Poshmark, for a mere $20, if you missed the post on how to shop there, you can read  it HERE.

I added some brown textured tights and wanted to wear block heels, so these ASOS brown suede pointed toe heels made an appearance. Last item became the leopard brown scarf for an addition of print. In he near future on the blog, I hope to share with you some casual looks as I know some of you may wonder if I own a pair of sneakers! Everyone has to dress more casually from time to time and if I am not feeling well, I don’t always dress up. So I have some slip on sneakers and several pairs I have recently bought.. so I hope to bring that to you soon.

I want to thank you all for participating in the Turning Heads Linkup last week, we had a great turnout! As per usual, please comment on 2 posts per blogger. Let’s keep it going! I truly enjoy seeing your looks each week!

    Gorgeous color combinations. So rich. And it does make me think of cherries and chocolate! Lace, velvet, leopard print. What more can a gal ask for? Beautiful!

    You can’t beat velvet and lace for a romantic Valentine’s outfit. You look lovely. I had a beautiful red velvet dress when I was little girl and have been trying to find one.

    I love the colors and textures in this outfit, Jess. Our velvet jackets are really similar. Aren’t they such a fun piece? Your skirt is lovely. I think our minds must have been thinking similarly because we have both been doing the velvet and lace looks for Valentine’s Day. It is such a pretty and appropriate and warm combination for this time of year. You need to post more pictures of your puppies. Especially when you have them dressed for the holidays. Ha, ha. Hope you had a lovely Valentine’s Day. – Amy

    This is a terrific textural party!! It’s so lush and gorgeous! And I love those tights. I just bought a pair in grey (and can you believe I forgot about them until just a week ago—now I’ve wore them twice!)

    Jess, berries and chocolate make for a tasty treat and an inspired color combination. You’ve put together another winning outfit. I adore all of the details of texture and pattern in your look but it’s the leopard print scarf that takes it to the next level of greatness. And how awesome to find out that my post from last week got the most clicks. That makes my day. Thank you for the shout out and for hosting the link up.
