Less Spend, On Trend: Gothic

21.8.12

Eye Ring, Filigree Ring and Feather Necklace - New Look / Leather-Look Trousers - Daisystreet / Sheer Fishtail Top - Fashion Union / Boots - H&M / Sleeveless Leather Jacket - Amazon

   I love that the Gothic trend is on its way back again as I own a lot of black clothing and I have a thing for leather jackets and black leather boots. Although, real leather can be pricey so I often buy pleather! (That word sounds so unappealing).

   Surprisingly I quite like these velvet, Doc Marten style boots from H&M. I'm not one to like velvet at all, so I don't really know why I like them! Maybe it's something to do with them being just £25?!

Last night I came across Fashion Union's new collection (go and have a look at it!). There have lots of Gothic inspired pieces available, plus tons of other lovely things! I found this sheer, fishtail vest top for £15, which would look great with a bandeau under it, and thought it would go perfectly with these trousers from Daisystreet. I actually own these trousers and they're brilliant. The cut and style is very discopant-like, but the fabric is a matte-leather looking (best explanation I can give!). They're really comfortable and go with practically anything, so for £16.99 they're brilliant.

   New Look are currently offering Buy One Get One Free on all jewellery! I'm pretty sure this is instore too, but it's definitely available online - click here. Today only (21st Aug) they are offering free delivery too if you enter FREEDEL21 at the checkout! My favourite piece of jewellery here is definitely the filigree ring.

Have you found any gothic inspired pieces for great prices?

You may have noticed I've changed 'Low Spend' to 'Less Spend', I know it makes no grammatical sense but I feel it sounds a bit nicer.
