Some of my colleagues dress up for classes on Halloween, but I'm content to keep the festivities to carving a jack-o-lantern and handing out candies to the trick-or-treaters. Quite honestly, I'm a bit bothered by how the children's celebration has been co-opted commercially over the past several decades, so that now we're decorating our homes and buying costumes and accessories, etc. Colour me Scrooge, but I look at much of this stuff and can only see Future Landfill. Whoops, that turned into a bit of a rant, didn't it? Maybe it's time to steal some of the trick or treats!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-55001448815104209472012-10-27T11:52:39.467-07:002012-10-27T11:52:39.467-07:00The only sign of orange in my part of the UK is a ...The only sign of orange in my part of the UK is a wheelbarrow of pumpkins for sale outside a cottage in the village.<br /><br />Have fun whatever you wear.

If you found some inexpensive Halloween charm (like a skeleton to hang from it, great, but sort of chic and sexy on it's own. I used to love to dress up for Halloween, and did some very inventive costumes.

Maybe the boa in black or orange and orange nail polish would work. Our Rite Aid has both. Or perhaps inexpensive bangles, if you can find them, in orange.<br /><br />I love orange and have a few things that I could go to.
