When you think “Gothic”, words such as glamorous, trendy or fashion aren’t necessarily first to come to mind. It’s usually words more like emo, witchcraft, and darkness that come to mind. But your
s truly is here to show you how to make yourself “Gothic chic” by playing up your dark side in a totally sexy way. Not all fashion has to be in the form of floral prints and maxi dresses. No, no no! Think dark! Think…tutus.
That’s right, I said tutus. I’ve always been a lover of Carrie’s pink tutu outfit in the opening credits of the Sex and the City series. But like I mentioned above, I’m going goth on ya today. Avril Lavigne punk? No way! I’m thinking sexy rocker chic. My inspiration? Lauren Conrad’s current cover of CosmoGIRL! magazine. I took one look at her outfit and fell in love instantly. The black tutu Lauren is wearing is from Betsey Johnson for $300. I’ve come up with some less expensive ones below that I think are pretty chic. When paired with a sexy cami, peep-toe heels, a studded belt and chunky jewelry, you could rock that tutu so hard you’ll have the emo girls hatin’ on ya!
Wondering where to wear this look? Nights out on the town are best–such as a concert or out dancing your butt off. Don’t be skerred! Think outside the box when it comes to style and expand your fashion repertoire!
