Halloween, as far as I’m concerned, starts at the beginning of October and only ends when the pumpkin sitting outside your front door finally turns to mush (or, on an equally sad note, when the candy runs out). If you couldn’t tell, I pretty much think it’s the most glorious holiday there is. Fuzzy spiders pop up everywhere, the office candy bowl turns black and orange, scary movies are on ALL the time (awesome!), and every party is a costume party. So when it comes to decorating, it’s more than okay to invest in accents that go beyond crepe paper and jack-o-lanterns- after all, you never know when you’ll get around to taking them down, and by the looks of the ones I’ve found, you may not want to! A sleek skull tray displays sugary sweets beautifully all October long, and when the trick-or-treating ends it’s perfect for stashing your jewelry or keys. A Gothic style flocked chandelier adds sinister style to any room, especially this time of year, but is just as effective in toning down excess charm when the mood strikes. And a little of that fake cotton candy-reminiscent spiderweb fluff goes a long way. Putting only a few decorations up at a time will keep you from getting burned out too early in the month. If money’s tight, look for items that have a little more staying power, like things that won’t necessarily rot-- that’s a job for your teeth, after all! Happy Halloween!
In this time of economic uncertainty it’s okay to be a little selfish and pinch those pennies. The caveat to this unwritten rule is the month of October which is Breast Cancer Awareness month. To aid in awareness and finding a cure, many of our favorite fashion and beauty brands are giving back in a big way, providing exclusive offerings to benefit this amazing cause. From luxurious body treatments to flirty makeup shades to stunning accessories, giving back has never been so easy!

Chances are you fall into one of two categories- you either live in your jeans, or you wish you could. And since jeans are one of the most universal, versatile styles around, you can bet there’s a pair out there that’s perfect for you. After all, there’s nothing more stylish than jeans that fit your figure and personality-- no one wants to feel like they’re wearing someone else’s! And that’s just what Levi’s® new campaign, Luv My Levi’s®, is all about. Take Jennifer, for example. She’s a fashion fanatic who doesn’t want her jeans to make her blend in. Then there’s Kristen, who’s all about balancing comfort and style, without compromising either one. And finally, Ruby, who wants to feel feminine in spite of her inner tomboy.
Hey Hivers! I’m a new intern at Stylehive in New York City. My style can vary from rock-inspired, to bright and vibrant. With my long blonde hair, I subconsciously gravitate towards a funky mix of gray and black outfits. For accessorizing, a little bit goes a long way. Before hittin’ the streets, you have to throw on that extra scarf, or more bracelets to pull together a full look. I believe that bravery brings out your true style! Check out my SLIDESHOW to get the look in this photo, and then keep following me in Stylehive to see the cool stuff I’ll be Hiving all summer in my new job. Also click over to Stylediary to see the style pics my friend Emily and I are taking on the New York streets. See ya!
