Baroque

One of my favourite recent trends in fashion, both on the catwalks and the high street, is Baroque. It's an opulent trend harking back to a time of grandeur in the history of art.
I was kindly offered the chance to review a piece from Fuse Fashion, an exciting new e-boutique which launched in November. Fuse hosts a lovely range of exciting labels including beautiful plus size and maternity fashion ranges. In the jackets section I loved how the brand Beloved was taking the Baroque trend and creating some gorgeous cropped jackets that were just that extra bit fabulous to make chilly days a bit more special.
I thought the look would be especially lovely combined with lolita fashion, as of course the Japanese street style I so love is itself inspired by historical costume. The details on the jacket from the zips on the sleeves to the little epaulettes on the shoulders are so lovely, but it's the layer of gorgeous lace that really makes this a striking piece- perfect for adding a little luxury to your wardrobe.
