My family takes Halloween very seriously. We go all out with decorations, as you can see from the pictures above. I blame it on my mother's love of Martha Stewart, but I don't mind it one bit. This is my favorite time of year, and I never miss a chance to carve pumpkins and dress up for Halloween. Even my favorite memories from english class were reading Edgar Allan Poe short stories and poems. I couldn't get enough of the dark, macabre settings and themes in his writing. 


Another favorite of mine is incorporating fall colors into my wardrobe. I die for pumpkin orange, mustard yellow, and deep plum. That's why I fell in love with these t-strap shoes a few years ago. The back and sides are a beautiful mustard yellow with a silver border around the strap. They really are the perfect fall shoe.


Speaking of Halloween, I put the finishing touches on my costume the other night! My friends are having a costume party complete with a pig roast, it should make for an interesting night.
