Ecochic Meets EEeeeeek for Halloween!

"Pixie, kobold, elf, and sprite, 

All are on their rounds tonight; 

In the wan moon's silver ray, 

Thrives their helter-skelter play" 

~ Joel Benton

A big shout out to all my Northern Hemisphere ecofashionistas who celebrate Halloween. While it's not traditionally a holiday that's recognised in Australia, I have to admit I do love the challenge of hunting down spooky ethical fashion and design treats!
