Carolyn Braden: Figured Out Why Witches Were Standing Out

I think I figured out how witches will show up in style.  I believe this fall things are going to get a little dark in the fashion world.  I think goth style will merge into high fashion.  I can see studs sticking around, dark lace, dark eyeliner (like the kohl eyeliner that Carrie put on in the new Sex and the City movie), and black and white stripes.  I call it "Halloween" Style.  Halloween will come early this year; At least in the fashion world.

December. More Inpirations.

Stars. All kinds of stars are standing out right now to me. Shooting stars, super stars, shining stars. Stars, stars, stars. I don't know why, but they are showing up everywhere.

Stripes. They are showing up in all styles.

Black and silver. Purple and silver. Anything plus silver will do.

Red-orange.

Japanese culture....kimonos, bamboo (again). Really, just anything to do with Japanese culture.

Natural rocks. I glued some Swarovski crystals to a few and put them on my vanity. It's because everything looks a little prettier with some sparkle. I glued some crystals to a seashell too. I gave it as a gift to someone who longed to go to Mexico. I told her she could put it on her desk and go to Mexico in her mind whenever she wished and looked at that shell.

I don't know if these things are going to be popular in fashion. I just seem to be inspired by these things right now.
