I mentioned this dress a couple of days ago but wasn't able to photograph it properly for you until today. I've shown it strapless here but you can actually add straps - it looks good both ways! It fits like a glove and the subtle velvety, rose design makes it unique in my wardrobe which is already overcrowded with vintage finds.
Since dying my hair dark I've really had my eyes opened to the possibilities of black clothing and other dark colours. Before, when my hair was blonde, my wardrobe was full of bright blues and greens and the thought of wearing a plain black dress would have scared me! This season however I'm all about black, navy, maroon and velvet. Gothic is very in this season - a look that I am most certainly embracing this year!

If you're feeling a little drawn to the dark side as well at the moment then Topshop have such a great selection of glamorous Gothic dresses available. I particularly like the glitter dot one below; I saw it in the Southampton store on Friday and it's SO SO lovely!
wow these photos are amazing - you look absolutely gorgeous! I love velvet dresses, that glitter dot one is luurrrvly xx
