Amanda’s Style File: Halloween Delights
Ghosts, spiders, skeletons and zombies haunt this spook-tacular special edition of Amanda’s Style File.
Pumpkins are carved, costumes are ready, candy baskets are filled—Halloween is here.
Though it is known as a holiday for children, celebrating Halloween isn’t reserved for kids alone.
Now more than ever, many adults find joy in the holiday that lets creativity flow and allows them to be whomever or whatever their hearts desire. For some, Halloween has a more spiritual connection as it is believed that Oct. 31 is an ideal time of year to connect with the dead.
Regardless for the reasons why Halloween is loved, jewelry is the perfect way to celebrate it year-round.
Here are 13 (because it must be 13 for Halloween) Amanda’s Style File selections with all the ghosts, pumpkins, spiders, skeletons and zombies you can expect for spook-tacular jewelry.
