Halloween is the one legitimate time of year that kids and adults alike can pretend to be somebody—or thing—they’re not without eliciting puzzled looks from un-costumed passersby.
But, if you don’t want to don a Mike the Situation suit, and find French Maid outfits passé, then consider a more sophisticated way to do dress up: in Halloween-inspired jewelry.

From rare orange diamonds to scary sterling demons, there’s a style sure to make you the envy of everyone at Halloween parties this weekend.
Skip the corny getups and wear a fire opal or black pearl—a Halloween-inspired form of adornment that’s less likely to raise eyebrows in the off-season.
