THE BLACK VELVET PANTS THAT MAKE HOLIDAY DRESSING LOOK EFFORTLESS. ✨
I have a weakness for a great pair of black pants, but make them velvet with a beautiful flared silhouette, and suddenly they're something special!
The Boden Flare Velvet Pants in Black are exactly the kind of piece I love for the holiday season. There's something so elegant about velvet, and the flared leg brings a little retro glamour that feels both timeless and modern.
I especially love that these pants give you the sophistication of a dressed-up holiday look without having to wear a dress. They're polished, versatile, and just a little dramatic in the best possible way.
And honestly, a fabulous pair of black velvet pants can take you just about anywhere during the holidays!

THE M.FAIRCHILD EDIT
RICH VELVET. A FABULOUS FLARE. EFFORTLESS GLAMOUR.
I'd pair these with a beautiful ivory silk blouse + statement gold earrings + a pointed-toe heel for a sophisticated holiday evening look.
I love the contrast of soft ivory against rich black velvet. It's classic, elegant, and never feels like you're trying too hard.
For a little more drama, I'd style them with a fitted black top and the Boden Fur Collar Cropped Cardigan from my Holiday Edit. An all-black outfit with different textures is always incredibly chic, and that fabulous collar adds the perfect finishing touch.
And if you're in the mood for holiday color, the Boden Midnight Emerald Lace Trim Velvet Top would create a gorgeous, jewel-toned evening look.
My favorite thing about these pants? They're the kind of piece you can build an entire holiday wardrobe around. Change the top, add a fabulous accessory, and you have a completely different outfit.
