- Fellow Fashionista Nothing Elegant has a fabulous Halloween-y post: click here.
- Also, Fellow Fashionista Little Miss Dress Up has a really fun contest going on right now, so if you aren’t getting costumed for Halloween (or even if you are!), go here and maybe you can win a fab handbag just for emulating one of our fellow fashionistas.
- Lastly, you simply must check out this fashion-costume post by Fellow Fashionista Poeta Fit.
Creepy Comestibles!
Sure, a bag of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups will do the trick, but CC also loves elenis.com sugar cookies and Halloween moonpies.
A devilish doormat for the witchy woman. This and previous at neimanmarcus.com.

I'm glad that you included WendyB's Juana ring!
No bones about it, love all the skeletony goodness you found. Much better than candy.
And, I love CC's "carving creations".
Happy Halloween!!!:-)
I don't like skeletons very much... Very out of fashion in my opinion.
Kisses!
Thanks for the mention. Love that top hat!
SUCH fun options. happy halloween!!!
Oh, CC, I'm afraid this time I'm not with you. I don't like scary. I don't even ever watch scary movies! I'm more a 'pumpkin girl' :)
Happy, happy Halloween CC!

I'm sick of skeletons because they were nearly everywhere last year.Only sometimes they look good.
Haha, the post title is so fun :)
This was a great trend-update, right in time for Halloween.

Wonderful! All the best things about Halloween! Oh how I want that little bat...
Spooky stuff and stylish bones.
i can NEVER have enough skulls i love them on everything. i think it's my pirate fascination.
I can never resist skull motives. I'd kill to have Wendy's stuff.
Orgh, I don't know about this one. Those first few pictures really creep me out - what with the ribcgae wrapped around the catwalk models head?
I have to admit the wristband is cute:)
Great post
I love skulls, they're so rock'n'roll
Boo!
loved the post cc!
;0!
I love peices with skeletons so much!
For some reason, they are just so me. They are probably my most favorite things.
Guess who is going to see the GOthic Dark Glamour exhibit tommorrow?
Yes, yours truly.
I totally love these picks - I've been lusting over Wendy B's ring for a while now!
