I had so much fun stalking half of the eastern seaboard for October-appropriate lewks last year, I started back at it in again this September.

State fairs never fail to deliver some freaky fashion like this bedazzled Michael Myers pendant.

From the Lenox Art Walk
I stopped in my tracks at Lenox Art Walk last month when I saw these high-collared, reversible jackets by La Linguere Fashions. They’re just two of many designs I found fanciful, fairy-inspired, and fun, without being so costumesque or over-the-top that I’d never wear it.
