Hope you all had a fabulous day! Today is my birthday, and I wanted a special look that really captured the essence of my personal style.

The entire velvet suit seemed much too formal for the workplace, so I decided to skip the velvet pants and paired the velvet blazer with simple skinny black pants.

I remember seeing velvet suits by Tom Ford for Gucci in a magazine back in 1996. I was a college student who was just starting to get out of her grunge phase.
I was so enamored with the Gucci suits. I loved the strong look of the women walking down the runway in this traditionally masculine look.
