October is finally here and you know what that means, yes you guessed it...HALLOWEEN.
If your anything like me, you count down the month's till Halloween and prepare a costume just to get your spook on.
Well i've been super prepared this year and have made an entire collection dedicated to the dark side.
I'm so excited to introduce to you our latest collection for halloween
' ONCE BITTEN ' inspired by all things Victorian gothic.

This collection is going to knock your socks off, I'm very proud of it and i hope you love it as much as I do.

Ever since I was a child i've always been fascinated with the Victorian era, the fashion , the Victorian houses ,the jewellery and everything else.
I always dreamed of owning an victorian bustle dress and hat of course hoping I could wear it and somehow  time travel back to that time, so i've conjured up some of that time in this collection along with my love of all things vampires , witches , New Orleans & all the old haunted Mansions.
 So here it is and you all get the honour of previewing it first. 

We have seven new designs in this collection.
Introducing , our ' LA BELLE ' Hat which screams the Victorian Bustle era with her striped sash bow and face veiling.

 Our ' GRACE ' hood hats made of the most luxurious velvet and detailed with vintage rare clasps .

Our ' SPELLBOUND ' Velvet turbans with Rhinestone Spider brooches  and our ' ROSES OF RED  silk flower headpieces.

Our ' ONCE BITTEN ' Collection is perfect to bring out the dark goddess in you just in time for Halloween.

I hope you all enjoy this collection as much as I did creating it.
Head over to our online boutique to view the full collection.

Wishing you a very spooky season & happy Shopping
