The Softest Obsession

image
Miista boots; everything else is UO

...so I'm officially here for all the plushness. 

I actually didn't notice my addiction until I purchased my velvet leggings a little while ago and I realized that it was my forth velvet piece. The loafers and the bralet are from last summer and the cat ears were picked up on a whim during the same trip as the leggings. However, you would think I would curb my consumption after my recent shoe purchase, but no, I am a full-blown addict and my velvety desires have yet to be satiated. 


Other velvety things I'm going after:

A velvet bow...because before I had an addiction to velvet, I had an addiction to bows, so why not combine them?
A velvet twist scarf...only because I know they're available and I would wear the crap out of one.
A velvet purse...seriously, how perfect would that be?
A velvet something-that-I-can-wear-on-the-top-half-of-my-body piece...a blazer will do, but I would love a shawl or vest or something like that because....do I really need a reason?

Obsessive Compulsive Consumption

everything relevant is Urban Outfitters

Like I said before, velvet leggings are at risk of getting worn to death; this pair in particular will probably be worn everyday due to my current obsession with the plush fabric.

I took them for a test drive in the frigid cold today and they did alright; definitely a bit more substantial than the average spandex leggings. These ones are also a relaxed fit so I can confidently wear them as pants without any camel-toe concerns...yay.

One of my errands today was a Wasa run. I have a legit addiction to them and I've been eating them almost everyday for about five years. They were on sale so cleared the shelf...eventually, all the fiber will turn me into a tree.
