Filed Under Aisle Style, Holidays 

Once again we are inspired by the runways and pages of fashion magazines. From bejeweled pumpkins to captivating hair and makeup tips from the pros, these ideas will ensure a couture and HAUTE Halloween!

Recreate a Vogue Halloween with step by step instructions on recreating Eddie Borgo’s jeweled pumpkin: “Last Halloween, jeweler Eddie Borgo (yes, he of coveted pyramid spike bracelets) decided he needed a housewarming gift for his friend designer Victor Glemaud’s annual downtown get-together. Flowers didn’t seem appropriate, so he opted to create a festive custom-made centerpiece: a bejeweled pumpkin.”  Style.com

Top it with an over-the-top handmade headpiece made from butterflies or florals. For a finishing touch, cover your face with dramatic makeup for a captivating look!

Halloween hair trend: Wickedly Crimped strands! Mimic Erin Fetherston’s fall 2009 runway hair. “It’s a bit wicked and more sinister than Erin’s usual fairytale look. The girls are a bit Tim Burton-esque.” via Elle.com

Haunting runway looks will be sure to captivate this Halloween! Wear black lipstick (with a touch of red), powdery pale skin, and darkly rimmed eyes or bright purple eyeshadows similar to the models of Marc Jacob’s fall 2009 show! via Elle.com

    I’m going as the Welfairey and Nadine is a FireFly. I have a friend going as White Gold from the milk commercials. Another friend suggested that someone be Indiana Jonas Brothers.
