HAPPY HALLOWEEN
A SPOOKY COLLECTIVE
My Go-To Black Outfits WRITTEN BY KRISTINA CHARLES, EDITOR A survey shows that only 4% of the population's favorite color is black. I am most definitely in that number! I mean, how could you not love the one color that pairs well with everything and is perfect for any occasion? If you love black clothing, you're most likely independent, strong-willed, conventional, and conservative from a personality perspective. Black is a color of prestige and power and the most versatile of all colors. It's a symbol of sophistication, drama, elegance, formality, and my favorite mystery. Quite fitting, primarily because of the Halloween season, right? We wear black more than we probably realize. It's the color we have most in our closets and the most suitable for many occasions like business meetings, dinner dates, weddings, and chill days. Let's dive into my six go-to black outfits of choice by Herringstone's!
Shoes That Will Make You Scream! PERFECT FOR ANY COSTUME
WOULD YOU RATHER HALLOWEEN EDITION Watch A Scary Movie OR Visit a Haunted House Buy Your Costume OR Make Your Costume Visit a Pumpkin Patch
Name that movie!
Halloween Parties 101 The Herringstone's Way By: Kristina Charles, Editor There are a plethora of party ideas centralized around a Halloween theme! The first "cliche" is a Costume Party. To add a bit of flavor, make it a 70's theme party, and whoever shows up in the best costume takes all the candy home. Next, you can gather up your friends in fur coats and cocktail dresses for a mysterious night of solving who killed the hostess at a Murder Mystery Party. After, sample a couple of bottles of red wine and call it "Bad Witch Blood" for a hair-raising wine tasting! If you're competitive and looking for a family-friendly spooky night, host a cookie decorating contest and then gather around a bonfire and tell eerie stories. Halloween is not just a night made for trick-ortreating and drinking with your friends; make it fang-tastic, thrilling, and claim the title as the Halloween QUEEN by creating your own haunted house! Now, that's a party!
