Blue Velvet

When I got married I made all my bride’s maids wear short wine velvet dresses. I chose something they could always wear again and they’ve thanked me for it.
Sure it was my day but they were forking out the money and I wanted them to be happy and comfortable. I loved those dresses (so did they) and always wished I had gotten one at the same time. I’ll have to dig out a picture to show you during wedding season.
Anyway, today’s fave item comes from plus size dress maker extraordinaire Igigi except it is a top. And it’s one of my favorite colors, cobalt. Blue velvet. Don’t you just love how it rolls off your tongue. Of course Isabella Rossellini comes to mind but I’m getting off track today.
The neckline of the “Velvet Wrap Jacket in Cobalt” (50670CBT) is plunging but not too revealing and I love the bell sleeves. It is also stretch velvet so there’s no binding. It comes in sizes 14 to 32 for $69.
