It all started back when I saw MKR’s wickedly chic Halloween shoot a few years ago…I started to believe that the Haunting Holiday can be just as beautiful and stylish as the rest. As MKR proves in her shoot, IT IS possible to avoid tacky, orange-and-black-themed everything, and instead blend silvers and greys with black, as you mix in candles, moss branches, spiders, crows and chains. Forget tchotchke and generic, and think tasteful and eerie. With great decor, a killer menu and the right costume (at least rock the stylish skull motif), you’ll be well on your way to hosting the best Halloween party on the block. 

Since it really can be SO good when it’s done right, we rounded up seven must-try ideas for your Halloween party in the slideshow above. From a hair-raising charcuterie plate to hauntingly beautiful and natural pumpkins DIYs, we’re sure you’ll find some stylish inspiration in our roundup.  Oh, and before you go, ask yourself what kind of modern haunted house you’re going for. Cheers, Kat

When our friends at Homespun invited us to the table to enjoy their Bourbon Honey Braised Pork Shoulder a few weeks ago, we were happy to oblige, and we were just as taken with their fresh, seasonal side: Roasted Broccolini & Carrot Bundles. I don’t know about you, but we never shy from a plate of warm, roasted, hearty veggies, especially when they’re wrapped up so tight in perfect little bundles! 

Each bundle, consisting of a few broccolini and a few carrots, are tied together with chive blossoms (green onions can work too) and make for the perfect size to enjoy as a tasty, fresh side to the tender, sweet pork shoulder.  A mixture of honey, sherry and oil gives the vegetables the moisture they need, and a final drizzle of garlic lemon oil serves as the best kind of finish to these soft, roasted vegetables. And I must say, the presentation is just as good as the taste.  Cheers, Kat

P.S. Don’t forget to save room for dessert! This Homemade Pear & Apple Crumb Tart hits just the spot. xo
