Halloween Costumes for Pets

Remember Maddie the Coonhound? Now she's sporting costumes. Aren't they hilarious? 

My friend Shannone's parents' Parson Russell Terrier, Rudy, dresses up every Halloween. He loooves it. His winning looks were a fatty pumpkin, a gun-slinging cowboy, and my personal fave, the wise and knowing Yoda. I'm so looking forward to seeing what he wears this year!

Have you found a costume for yourself?

Halloween Porch

So I'm thinking about decorating our front porch up nice. Stylish and classy. I love these 3 front door ideas with gold pumpkins, eerie birds, and ominous branches.

Do you get trick-or-treaters where you live?

Monsters By Angus Stone

I love these short film stills for Angus Stone's new album, Broken Brights. The video was inspired by "Monsters" a chapter in a book he's writing about a person trapped in another world and doesn’t know how he got there.

How beautiful is model, Teresa Oman's stag antler headpiece? Would someone please replicate this woodland fawn look for Halloween tomorrow? Or next year? Here's where to find her robe, crown, andring.

O So Spoooookkkyyyyyyyy

 In case you hadn't heard, Halloween is right around the corner! We've decided to eat our way to the finish line with some of these sweet and savory -- and oh-so-spooky -- treats! Happy haunting!

Fall Decor

Do you decorate your home for the changing seasons? As much as I'd love to, I can't bring myself around to digging things out, only to put them back in a month. And having limited storage space doesn't help.

But I could learn a thing or two from Maria. She decorated her 100-year old Michigan farmhouse for fall with pieces she already has on display, such as baskets, chalkboard signs and vintage jars. But makes them seasonal by using cones, branches, and other bits of autumn colored nature that can be easily swapped out when the winter holidays arrive.

I for one have been given full priviledges in the Shah household to re-do a part of my room to be and make a walk in closet. For as much as I am enjoying the designing of this wadrobe, I am hating the executing bit. The minute details like colour, fittings, lighting etc makes me want to just walk into IKEA and start living there ;)
