This is the season when I miss the US the most, for the Indian summer, for Halloween and Thanksgiving. Before living in the US, Halloween was just a commercial event to me. It is still, in a way, but I understand much better the attraction Americans have for it. While living in New York, I discovered the crazy block parties with kids in amazing costumesstreets decorated and open houses, full of pumpkins, candles, spider webs and other spooky elements. Such fun, such great energy and creative sophistication. Now I can’t escape Halloween because my children got addicted to it. This fashion story in W Magazine set the tone for my outfit this year…it’s going to be fun again.
