Easing into all the Halloween vibes with this gothic ensemble, styled up to attend a recent performance of Bram Stoker's Victorian masterpiece "Dracula" in my beloved River City. I'm wearing a stunning black & red three-dimensional floral embroidered mesh midi dress with attached elastane slip & satin obi belt from Australian designer Sacha Drake, a pair of black matte leather pointy-toed booties from Wittner for a modicum of height & a vintage black beaded handbag from a little Etsy boutique called Pookie & Ness (gifted by some dear friends) to carry all the essentials. When it came to accessories, I certainly made the choice to dress to the theme with a pair of bright, blood-red ruched satin long opera gloves from That Shop & a circular chrome & resin cocktail ring depicting the Virgin Mary that was part of a Christmas gift from friends a few years ago now to complete the look.
