A Cozy Sweater and Velvet Mini Skirt

winter layered outfit

Miniskirts in the winter? Yes. Let’s make that happen.

I finally made the trip to a vintage destination that’s been on my list for a year or two now. Rosewood Clothing Co. is a place worth your business, everyone.I knew  when I started following the brand that I’d like the style of what was inside the boutique located in the Arts District of Richmond.

I foraged the big winter sale one Sunday afternoon recently. If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll see I had fun in the dressing room. From 70’s inspired work dresses, to quality leather belts, to local jewelry, you’ll find something you need.

After about 30 minutes in the dressing room, I chose this velvet mini skirt. It’s soft, it’s vintage and it’s me. I paired it here with a new fluffy oversized turtleneck sweater, a half-up top knot, a new pair of shades, and a few trusty winter essentials. I even got away with this at a work meeting.
