The Cutest Way to Do Halloween Without Going Full Spooky

When it comes to Halloween jewelry, if you say the word "spooky", most people picture cobwebs, dripping candles and something horrifying with too many teeth, which is fine if that's what you love every October, but can be a little much for those who want to keep the spooky vibe going all year long, especially those whose tastes run more toward the "spooky-cute" or "adorably dark" side of things.

This post is for those people, the ones who want fall and Halloween to show up in their jewelry box without a single skeleton involved... unless it's cute.

Cute is not a consolation prize

It's perfectly possible to skip the horror movie experience entirely, and head straight for the charming side of Halloween.  Think pumpkin patches glowing in the fading light of a crisp autumn day, black cats curled up on their favourite cushion, and that whiff of cinnamon and apples that takes you right to falling leaves, and curling up with a mug of mullled apple cider.  This version of Halloween and autumn deserves its own earrings and necklaces, not small, apologetic versions of the horror movie side.  It deserves jewellery like this:

The pumpkin stud earrings

Small, round, and entirely too pleased with themselves, these are the earring equivalent of having a pumpkin spice something in hand and having zero regrets about it. They work just as well with a plain sweater as they do dressed up for a Halloween gathering, and they never once ask you to commit to a full costume to earn their place on your ears.

The black cat stud earrings

For the ones who consider "I am a cat person" to be a full personality trait, or who just love the quiet, slightly superstitious charm of a black cat in October (or any other month, really). These pair beautifully with the pumpkins if you want a full autumn moment and love to wear mismatched earrings.  Or they can stand entirely on their own if a cat is simply the vibe today.

Wear them together or apart

Here is the good part. These are not a package deal.  You don't have to get both (unless of course you want to, then go right ahead 😉).  Wear the pumpkins as a matched set when you want something bright, autumnal and playful.  And the black cats when you want something a touch more mysterious, without tipping into truly scary territory (or if you have and/ or love black cats and just want to show the world, in a subtle way).

Of course, you can always mix it up, and wear one of each, creating a mismatched pair that still feels like they belong together, since they were clearly always going to end up on the same porch.

However you wear them, this is Halloween without the jump scare. Less terrifying, more adorably dark.
