• 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.

Scrumptious Halloween goodies...
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.
