Forget the animal ears and fake blood this Halloween and opt for a more glamorous take on proceedings with gothic lace and killer patent heels.  Complete the look with darkly inspired make-up straight from the runway at Proenza Schouler AW10.

Snow White, Blood Red

Catwalk Inspiration: Erdem SS11

Corded Lace Crop Top, Peter Pan Lace Swing Dress, Wisteria 2 Diamante Wedges, Crochet Lace Top by Unique all by Topshop

Give feminine lace an unexpected twist by opting for pieces in this bright scarlett hue for SS11.  My favourite is this Topshop Peter Pan collar dress which is perfect to wear right now with black opaques and ankle boots.

The Big Cover Up

Daria Werbowy for Stefanel AW10

I came home from holiday this week to find that it is now most definitely autumn in the UK.  And it more apparent than ever that I need to get a winter coat!  

I love these big chunky cardigan coats by Stefanel, and would like something similar- maybe even a patterned poncho style similar to the one in the second set of pictures.  However I'm not sure that it would quite do the job come December...
