Personally, I think Halloween has become a girl’s holiday, a witch’s holiday. Everything about her is identified with the season. What girl can resist her shoes? Nobody can pull off some fun heels with turned-up toes like a witch. She can accessorize with the best of them. She’ll take her LBD, add a signature hat and wrap herself in a cape to add a sense of mystery.
She’s not just a pretty face. She has converted her broom from a symbol of household drudgery into the means to propel herself anywhere she desires. Cauldrons, wands, and a good cookbook let her brew up the perfect potion. Her friend and confidant, the black cat, is evident everywhere during the season.
