Put Your Pumpkin On My Shoulder

skirt featured here

Even though I wear "Halloween" items to work all year round, it's nice to really concentrate my wardrobe efforts at this time of the year. In other words, I'm wearing it all....together! Hahahaa!

I featured this Headless Horsemen brooch by Summer Blue Jewelry on a Kitsch Picks and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Wearing brooches and pins have always been something I add to outfits, it brings in a little flair and adds a little something to an other wise plain sweater, dress, etc. I always think that more is more when it comes to accessorizing. Just dooooooo it!  (said in a creepy ghostly voice) Hahahaah!!!!

Do you have a favorite brooch or pin?

Thank you for reading!

Pumpkin Slayers!

Well, more like pumpkin carvers. Hehehe! You may remember this motley crew from my renaissance festival blog and we're together again for some Halloween fun!

It was nice to hang out, drink cider and pull out some pumpkin guts. Brutal.

Skeleton Hands

Our friend Leslie is such a dear, last week I came home from work to discover she gave Derek this awesome skeleton hands top (that she made) to give to me! How awesome is that?! Black and white. Check! Spooky motif. Check! Made with love by a friend. Check!

I'm not inspired to sew for myself, but once I put on this sleeveless boat neck style top, I knew I wanted to try and make this style for myself. I love the fit! Maybe I'll try and draft my own pattern......maybe. 

I'm not taking this off!

I am always grateful to have such thoughtful and talented friends. Thank you Leslie!!!!

Kitsch Picks: Monster Masks Metal Signs by Retro-a-go-go!

+Crankie Frankenstein +Fish Face Gilly +El Diablo Devil

+Vampyra  +Witchy Poo +Wolfie

These are original Retro-a-go-go! artwork inspired by the creepy and oversized Halloween plastic masks that were popular in the 1950s through 1970s. They have taken that inspiration and made them into metal signs! Love it! 

Which one is your favorite?

Wiggle It

I pulled out my Vamp Dress by Mode Merr and wondered to myself why I have been shying away from such form-fitting clothing. I slipped  into this little black number and quickly realized why it's in my closet...it's amazing! Stretchy, but has good structure and it's a good base piece in which I can layer with cardigans, vests, etc. 

Yeah, I'm wearing a 'regular' bra with an off-the-shoulder dress. I think it still looks good!

Blahhhh, I'm a bat!

Have you recently re-discovered something in your closet?
