Last Minute Halloween Ideas!

Invited to a costume party this weekend and don't know what to wear? Or maybe you decided to dress up at the last minute and emrace the holiday fun? Just too busy to figure it out? Fear not - we break down our 4 favorite costumes for Halloween 2010 and the easy "in a bag" solutions to help you get the look. All costumes are available at Ricky's in NYC and online.

1) Gypsy Princess

We love this Esmeralda inspired Gypsy costume. Cute and sexy and the colors are gorg.

2) Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga is definitely the it look this year. We think this outfit is both fashionable, flattering and on trend!

3) Snow White

My dog might have been Snow White this year (don't ask) but I was tempted to match her after I saw this cute costume. Disney Princess looks are always a good way to go!

4) Judy Jetson

We are living in a modern age! If you want a look that's a little more covered up, but still sexy, unique and fun then be. a. Jetson!

Happy "Holly"ween!

I, for one, am a HUGE fan of Halloween. I love dressing up - maybe its my theater background or all of those theme parties I went to in college. Either way, every year I get super into Halloween - whether I put together my own costume or buy one in a bag! I always end up going to a few Halloween parties and being multiple costumes each year.

To get you in the mood - here are some of my favorite Halloween looks from the past.

(In order of appearance: Modern Vampire featuring H&M finds, Sookie Stackhouse Costume pulled together from HBO.com Store and American Apparel, Alice in Wonderland straight from the bag, Ricky's, Hippie aka Nicole Richie pulled from my own closet)

There is no reason to not dress up and with that in mind consider BBB to have gotten "a spooky makeover" for the rest of the week. Tomorrow, we will break down our favorite last minute, easy Halloween looks and look out Sunday for what I wore this Halloween!

Daily Bling - Tuesday, October 26

Oh how I love Nicole Richie's killer style. A boho queen, she is who I want to be when it comes to dressing in real life. Unique, chic without trying to hard and just effortlessly cool. We are so proud that she ditched Paris, drugs, and those scary hair extensions for a life of mommyhood and fashion superstardom.

If you are not a stranger to BBB then you know how much I also love her House of Harlow 1960 accessories line. Nicole's latest additions to the line are all awesome but our favorite, you ask? The new Tribal Drop Earrings. We see Nikki herself wearing them with a printed tunic, tights and some vintage camel riding boots from the 197os.

The Tribal Drop Earrings are 14k gold plated and dangle 3 inches in length. You can scoop 'em up at ShopBop for $100.

Weekend Bling - 10/23 - 10/24

It's not Halloween yet, but that's okay because we love skull detailing all year round. These adorable earring from Etsy caught our eyes right away, and we just knew they had to be this weekend's bling!

Boutique Pink Diamond, a designer on Etsy, created these"Cute Skull Earrings" right in time for Halloween season but we think they'd be adorable all Fall long. Featured in 16K gold plated sterling silver with purple quartz, they are fun, edgy and pretty all wrapped into one. At only $29 they are also a steal!

Check out these cute earrings and all of Boutique Pink Diamond's other fun designs at Etsy.

Daily Bling - Tuesday, October 18

My new favorite statement necklace is J. Crew's Crystal Chain Link Necklace. A perfect go to for almost any outfit, I predict this particular J. Crew stunner will become an instant classic you keep reaching for as you finish an outfit (much like their long geometric gemstone necklaces were last year and the season before).

The image doesn't even do the necklace justice, in person the shine of the crystals and the ox-plated look of the metal has a vintage/edgy vibe thats very modern. In three variations, crystal, dusty rose (shown above) and black; the only issue you will have with this one is figuring out which gorgeous shade to choose! I'm partial to the dusty rose but I'm thinking I might just also have to have the black.

J. Crew's Crystal Chain Link Necklace retails for $55 and is available online and in stores.
