Tsk. I hope you are not implying there is something wrong with La Nicks’ velvet, Ms. Plumcake. Mama just turned 60 and she can rock that velvet like nobody’s business (barring some unfortunate incidents in the late 80s/early 90s).

I’m 26 and I don’t look that good.

I’d rather look like the chubbiest girl at the bordello than look like Meat Loaf in Fight Club, which is what those velvet blazers would do for me. Not all Big Girls look or feel good in man tailored clothes!

I save velvet for holiday party dresses. But then, I have a tan dog that sheds hair like there’s no tomorrow. Wearing velvet around her would turn me into a yeti.

As always, Plumcake rules.

I think I will be attempting to incorporate “festival of no” into my vocabulary now.

My immediate thought when I saw the broomstick skirt comment was, “What will Twistie have to say about that?” My thoughts on velvet… more like velveeta ’cause it’s cheesy!

I put away my velvet for good. I’ll be selling it all at a yard sale Saturday. There’s nothing wrong with it, but I’ve moved on to other fabrics and styles.

The top dress I’d wear as a Halloween costume, or if it was Stevie Nicks night at karaoke. ;-)

But I must say, I do love those last two jackets. Delicious!

I’ve definitely rocked velvet broomstick skirts before and will continue to do so, but my style is most definitely on the bohemian side of things. (Floor length gauzy indian cotton skirts are my signature item of clothing, and no, I did not live through the 70′s.)
