GOTHIC GLAM AW16
As I write this I am sitting in glorious sunshine and dare I say it a little too hot! But we all know we are lucky to have this and it won't last for long so on with Autumn Winter prep we go. I have a thing about lace, especially black lace. As a mum I find a touch of black lace can vamp up an otherwise plain outfit without making it unwearable on a day to day basis.'Goth Glam' doesn't have to be as scary as it sounds. It is simply about adding in textures, layers and ruffles with lace, tulle and sheer fabrics.

Whether it's evening wear or a daytime look you're after this trend will see you through day to night. The catwalks were all about full length skirts, high necks and feminine lines and the high street does not disappoint.
Lace Blouse Zara £29.99
Frill Shoes Zara £29.99
Midi Dress Mango £59.99
This Zara blouse is a perfect example of how to wear the trend on the school run. Simply pair with denim, chunky black boots and a leather biker jacket for an easy to wear 'goth glam' vibe. And for an evening look add a black layered skirt (see below) and some black courts for a more gothic princess look.
Jacket Missguided @ ASOS £35.00
Skirt Zara £19.99
Boots Zara £69.99
If you want to give the trend a go but don't like to go too girly then these pieces paired together with a simple tee would be perfect. Add a leather back pack and you're ready to go in the city.
Top Tip - These boots will see you through the entire season as chunky black 'bovver' boots were seen all over the catwalks. Louis Vuitton especially loved the look and even had high-heeled versions on offer.

Dress Zara £29.99
I have this dress already from Zara and wore it to a hen do earlier on in the year. As the seasons change I'm looking forward to using it as a transitional piece. I can wear it with black shoes and denim while the weather is still warm and as the year goes on I will add tights, chunky boots and layer with a shirt for a daytime look. I love the high neck detailing on it and the subtle ruffled shoulders. I went up a size as it came up quite tight on the chest for me.

If you don't fancy going all black then a simple white high neck blouse with a black ribbon will also give a nod to the trend.

Zara are on point again with this trend and their selection of bottoms is by far the best on the high street. I particularly love these trousers with the flared detail on the bottom and would like to see them paired with the black lace top and velvet shoes (see above) from H&M. For extra glamour add the chokers also from Zara and dark red lips.
