SOTD "HALLOWEEN IS COMING THEME WEEK" October 23rd - October 29th, 2017

[ronweston]

A new week has begun at SOTD, Gentlemen!!!

And this week is a "Halloween is Coming" Theme Week!

Some of you have already gotten into the Halloween mood, so here is the chance for everyone to put a little gleeful darkness into their SOTDs. Whatever you would like to highlight, be it soap/fragrance combos, a choice of a fearsome razor, a creepy design, a book or movie associational item added to the layout, is quite welcome. Be seasonally creative, gents; have a little fun.

And remember, our Theme Weeks are just a suggestions. Please feel free to post any photo, with any gear and any style you chose, or contribute by telling us what you used in your shave, with comments on the shave, if you desire.​

Color, B&W, sepia or a photograph with any type of artistic touch you wish is always desired.

Be Adventuresome!​

SUNDAY OBSERVATIONS CONTINUED:​

@cwsnc - Very interesting overhead view of your arrayment, Chris. I really like the antique toning you are using. Fine lather BTW.
@eezee - Ah, the heady smell of Dragon's Blood ... one of my favorites. A nice richness of color, Erich. I really like the matching AS, though it is quite a full frontal fragrance.
@skypsyd - I get a bad case of brush envy whenever I see that Cleo, Dave!
@TheKushFather - Simple and elegant.
@rob_shaves - Smart looking array, Rob.
@nikonNUT - Oh that's a photo filled with darkness, Christopher. Like that patchwork design as backing. Nicely done.
@JBO667 - Quite a fine creamy, peaky lather, Jerad.
@120inna55 - What an eye-catching photo, Matt. Superb review. I just might give the soap and AS a try.
@jerrylee101 - Comely high angle POV, Jerry. Classic shave, my friend.
@CT23 - Sumptuous photo, Chris. Color and shape, light and darkness: uncommon environs as a rest for your elements.
@EzraCobb - Brush and razor are standouts, Jamie. Nicely appointed layout.
