Every fall I get excited about an upcoming holiday season and unlimited opportunities it brings for joy and gratefulness. By early October my mind and heart are in reflective mode as I admire the work of talented creative people (not just professionals) that bring in amazing art, style and design.

Halloween is one of the holidays that is all inclusive and open to self expression. For many people it means staying current and fresh within their personal style.

Here are some of the examples of Halloween decorations that clearly reflect a permanent bond between art, design and fashion within the realm of ever changing and evolving trends.Here they are the trends that made center stage for the upcoming season:

Dark Flowers. Romantic dark floral prints and colors are elegant and mysterious. They are also perfect colors for Halloween wreaths. Moody or romantic, they will transform any entryway from boring to exciting. While the origami rose wreath is moody and luxurious, a lush hydrangeas wreath is very elegant. Its colors are perfect for the fall, but it would be well-suited for year-round display as well.
