KILLER LOOKS: In the past, I've loved dressing up for Halloween. I've dressed as a witchy Witch, a Gold Rush Saloon Girl, a Jack the Ripper victim, a Geisha, a Bumble Bee, and in the works, a Raven/Black Goddess of War. But this year- no party. So no big Halloween costume.
Instead, I've been dolling up on a daily basis, a sort of generic Halloween dress: the 90's era black booties I've christened Franken-boots, with exaggerated, Goth-flavored black on black ensembles. Outfits with a "cartoony" edge, I suppose. Not sure what I'm dressed as today, but with black + white elements, and orange accents, you get the gist I'm all hallowed out for the Halloween.

Loving the monochrome with the rocking orange scarf! Those boots should go down well with the teenage hipsters, they're always the first thing to sell on my stall! xxx

Brilliant outfit, love the nod to Halloween with the gothic black and pumpkin orange. Stripey tights are my favourite!
Perfect Halloween outfit! You are too cute for your own good!
I'm getting a dark Gretel vibe from this. And I love it.
Love the monochrome print mixing with the touch of orange!! :)
Happy Halloween love!
Hi kiddo - which Sacramento share-in-style blog are you linked up with?
You're decked delightfully for the season! Polka dots and stripes together always put a smile on my face. Especially with a touch of orange.
Thank you so much Bella, for the Hat Attack mention. See you there!
Those tights are so much fun.
bisous

That is a super cute outfit, Bella!
I had a whole elaborate costume thing planned out----but now I'm just going to slap on a cloak and a viking helmet I bought a few years ago and call it good. Some Halloweens are like that :) In fact, I'll probably share the helmet at Judith's hat attack, ha ha!!
Love this look, esp the great striped tights! Spooky-good. xox
Yup, it mostly looks like Bella being cool on any day of the week. But I love the orange scarf for a little pumpkin spice.
I have been having fun wearing my spooky accessories for the month. I am so excited to get my costume back on tomorrow - and it's got a hat for Hat Attack!
With these colors, you're certainly in the Halloween spirit. Nice look. Happy Halloween!
Love the outfit-especially the striped tights and the pop of orange in the scarf!
Too adorable! A great outfit with just a bit of Halloween edge to it.
I haven't been to a Halloween party since High School, I just dress up for work on the years that I have a good idea for a costume (which isn't very often, but it worked for this year).
nice effect you put in your pics- is photoshop, picmonkey?
I'm b&w too today plus a touch of orange for sacramento's halloween
