I have had my eye on this belt for a while. After finally purchasing and wearing it did not disappoint!
It's a great accessory for an outfit, especially Necessary Evil dresses!
This dress is beautiful, and the fabric is comfortable and good quality. Had to exchange for a size up as the arms were a bit tight, but excellent customer service and a speedy exchange.
I recently purchased the Banned Apparel Lyric Jumper. This lovely little cropped jumper is so soft and comfortable, but deceivingly thick and warm. it is Ideal for cold Winter days without being too bulky, the sizing is spot on I'd say. It has a cute little repeated purple coffin design all over the black jumper, which makes it a statement item. I have only worn it once so far, as I'm waiting for the colder weather,
I'm always worried to buy Dark In Love items as a plus size lady they can be very tight! However I took the plunge as this is absolutely stunning. I'm a UK 18 and the XXL size is perfect, I'm so pleased! The dress is gorgeous, the more fitted bottom is actually stretchy and gives you a stunning figure combined with the corset style top and floaty sleeves. This looks EXPENSIVE! I feel like an incredibly glamorous Morticia Addams.
This is gorgeous, it hangs beautifully and looks amazing. I am a size 14 but bought the 2XL to allow room to wear something underneath . This fitted perfectly, so you probably want to size up at least one size
Recently purchased a lace gothic dress from Kates Clothing, item came as described and on time and the outfit was truly beautiful and reflected the sites images very well
Would recommend and will be using Kates Clothing again, thank you x
Couldn't help myself again....saw the cute purple Banned cropped sweater with chest cut out and begged 'he who maintains Birthday cash' for a slightly early birthday prez. Especially as she was generously offering 20% off. Kate teleported the item in a secure box within a day or two of my order. Jumper is ribbed and not at all itchy and although cropped is very snuggly and warm. Was worried I might get sniggered at by my wonderful son's due to being a wobbly 50something exposing a bit of flesh but not a short so it must look good when partnered with Heartless black leggings with purple flame effect and black suede Victorian ankle boots. So pleased to have stumbled upon such a professional business with good variety of alternative clothing at reasonable prices.
Ok, technically it’s a cardigan, but it’s so much more! Silky sleeves, lots of lace, the most amazing collar and a lace-up in the perfect spot to show off both necklaces and belts. It completely transformed the dress I was wearing into a statement!
