As Halloween quickly approaches, we know you are thinking about what to wear to your costume party. This year, steampunk is oh so hot. Brooklyn Indie Market's Steampunk II is the place to pick up some indie designed pieces this weekend. You will find indie brands Rocklove, Steamed Punk Laboratories, Once Lost and 19Moons among others. Show off your new funky look at the after party at The Way Station -- Brooklyn's first steampunk bar and performance venue. If you can't make it to Steampunk II this weekend, we did a little surfing and found some great Halloween-themed steampunk jewelry. Check out our slideshow for some of our top picks!
Stylishly Spooky Halloween Jewelry You'll Want To Wear All Year Round!

Who says you need a campy store-bought costume to be festive this Halloween? I'm all for dressing up, but there's more to getting into the haunted holiday spirit than black lipstick and fishnets. If you're a jewelry gal (but then again, what girl isn't?), there are tons of trendy Halloween-themed charms, pendants, bangles, and even cocktail rings that are bound to appeal to your inner trick-or-treater. This Swarovski Ghost Charm is an adorably festive addition to any charm bracelet or keychain, and if you aren't a huge arachnophobe like I am, this spider ring from Betsey Johnson is appropriately gothic-chic. But just because they're perfect for the spooky season doesn't mean they're too kitschy to wear after the 31st -- this skull-embellished wrap bracelet by Alexander McQueen will still be stylish even after all your candy has been devoured!
