Lace, velvet and faux fur were as predominant as shearling (aviator trend to be touched upon in a later post) on the Fall-Winter 2010 runways. And if there is any way to enjoy a gothic romance this season, it’s with these luxurious fabrics in black and berry shades.
Make Halloween last all year 'round with these fun buys:
The costume party might be for only one night (or two depending on how much you love the holiday), but these bottle stoppers are unlike any other. For those rare occasions, there’s this skull bottle stopper from Urban Outfitters ($12) to put a cork on the festivities.
Mink faux fur throw
Cozy up with a sweetheart while watching your favorite scary movie with this mink faux fur throw from Décor Innovation ($64.99 smaller size, $84.99 bigger size). A glossy black coat on one side and a cozy plush lining on the underside, this is one living room must-have.
Skull candles
These mini black skull candles by Modern Alchemy ($75) really know how to set the mood. Don’t just light one. Go for five all together and make sure to light them around company. Then see what a conversation starter these little candles are good for.
Cross ornaments
Function meets fashion with a selection of silver cross ornaments. Evoke gothic charm if paired with skulls and other foreboding finds, or deck the halls during the holidays. Whichever time of year you choose to show off these crosses, pick unexpected places to show them off: around a lamp, candelabra, headboard, ceiling hook, etc.
Oh so creepy, but oh so cool. At least that’s what I think about this shower curtain at Urban Outfitters ($28). It’s unexpected spookiness in your bathroom – the last place one might think to get a little scare. But why not?
A little scare every now and then never hurt anyone.
