it’s all about dark glamour…

the closest i ever got to goth style was borrowing my best friends pyramid studded belt from hot topic in 10th grade & really wanting but never getting black lace up doc martens {fyi: i still really want a pair.} but this fall, it’s all about dark glamour… at least for one big trend. dark glamour in a nouveau gothic, enchanting, old-world victorian, eerie yet weirdly gorgeous, makes me want to watch sweeney todd kind of way.

here’s what i’m LOVING from the runways. i hope you’re inspired to add a wisp of  dark glamour to your closet this fall. i know i am… allsaints & doc martens on ebay here i come!!

be curious!

every fall i splurge the $20 on a runway book… it’s the best way to peep all the up-close details &
feel a little closer to fashion week. this year, marie claire did a fab job.

philip lim 3.1 pashli transparent PVC tote

oh my these sleeves!

gucci ankle strap sandal… they come in navy too!

{wanna be on trend all the way? add wine stained lips, cage-like accessories, a belt & tall boots. game over.}

in my opinion fall fashion is always the best… layers, textures, the constant reinvention of silhouettes & the blowing of minds. enjoy it friends… resort is quite literally just around the corner.
