dark romance.




Hi all! I have been wanting to do a style post for ages now, and here it is! 
Today was also the last day of my internship with Fashion East at Lulu & Co : - ( 
I have had a super fantastic time there,, and certainly wouldn't have left if it wasn't for the fact that I am jetting of to Denmark to visit Kate soon! Which I am super excited about : - ) 
The entire team at Fashion East and Lulu & Co are *fantastic* and a pleasure to work with, and so if any of you are thinking of a placement, apply there! 
It will certainly be worth while, and by all means mention me ; - ) 

This outfit is very much influenced by some of the 'dark romance' looks we have been seeing on the catwalks, I looked for ages for a long lace skirt that I could wear with my Jeffery Cambell black spike platforms and came across this brilliant skirt on the New Look sale for only £8!  I have paired it with a New Look top, vintage cardigan, Primark bracelet, Gap belt and Warehouse necklace. 

here are some of my favourite runway looks,,,

I am also in love with this nude lace and how it contrasts with the black lace,
also on a warmer day I will have to wear my lace skirt with no tights...

    1. Thank-you, thats what I was worried about at first, but luckily the lace finishes just above the studds when your walking with your legs straighter. So i didnt have a problem, i was more worried about knocking my heals together and breaking the inside studds of, as they stuck out pretty far! : - D xx
