Cover Me Fashionable >> Shattered Souls (Souls #1)

Shattered Souls (Souls #1) by Mary Lindsey

Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this ridiculously stunning rose dress crafted by Joseph Mossie in 2012 and made from 300 roses. When you possess the unusual gift of communicating with and helping out lost souls, like Lenzi in Shattered Souls (Souls #1), you can be sure that your wardrobe is going to be equally unorthodox. Although the red rose has long been used in rituals of love (the Ancient Greeks associated roses with the goddess Aphrodite), the flower has also been used in rituals involving spirits of the deceased, as the color was seen as a reminder of blood and therefore life. Adorning yourself in the petals of this fragrant flower may even aid in choosing between the mortal man who has won your heart and the immortal protector who haunts your dreams.

Cover Me Fashionable >> Incarnate (Newsoul #1)

Incarnate (Newsoul #1) by Jodi Meadows
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this delicate and lovely purple butterfly mask from designer Silly Little Fairy, available from Etsy for only $23.00. Wearing such a detailed and feminine accessory may allow you to look past your seemingly nosoul existence and find happiness and meaning in a world that chooses to reject you, just like Ana in Jodi Meadows's novel, Incarnate (Newsoul #1). Whether you possess an oldsoul or a newsoul is irrelevant, the meaning behind your life arises from the actions you take from day to day. Besides, we all know the answer to life, the universe, and everything is actually 42.

When you are working as a member of the Royal Guard and charged with protecting the immortal aristocracy favored by Queen Victoria, just like Xandra Vardan in Kate Locke's upcoming novel, God Save the Queen (The Immortal Empire #1), you can be sure to be on your best-dressed behavior. Sporting these steampunk inspired accessories with your outfit will make for the picture perfect example of an ideal member of the Queen's royal protectors. What would your ideal Royal Guard ensemble be?

Cover Me Fashionable >> Etiquette & Espionage (Finishing School #1)

Etiquette & Espionage (Finishing School #1)
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is a bit of a two-fer, but when you're a young lady of quality attending the best finishing school for aspiring spies, you need to be prepared for all contingencies! You can achieve the ideal espionage look by choosing the largest and most cumbersome Victorian skirt you can find- as long as it's held up by a hoop skirt and it's in a delightful shade of black, just like this Virginia Skirt from Recollections. The ladies attending this finishing school are well versed in all manner of etiquette, from proper tea service to efficient knife wielding, and apparently are excellent seamstresses. Why not inquire at Mademoiselle Geraldine's Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality once your look is complete to begin your training, just like Sophronia in Gail Carriger's upcoming YA debut, Etiquette & Espionage (Finishing School #1). What would your ideal finishing school ensemble be?

Cover Me Fashionable >> Something Strange and Deadly (Something Strange and Deadly #1)

Something Strange and Deadly (Something Strange and Deadly #1) by Susan Dennard
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this unbelievably gorgeous black ballgown/wedding dress available from Wedding Dress Fantasy for the low price of $799. It's every little girl's dream to wear a beautiful floor length ballgown... especially when the gown is black, making blood stains from run-ins with zombies practically invisible to the prying eyes of a watchful parent. It may be a bit cumbersome having to fend off an undead army in layers upon layers of skirt, but that's how a true Victorian lady does it, just like Eleanor in Susan Dennard's 2012 novel, Something Strange and Deadly (Something Strange and Deadly #1). Now, if someone can tell me where to get those gloves, we will be fully armed and ready for action!

Cover Me Fashionable >> Venom (The Secrets of the Eternal Rose #1)

Venom (The Secrets of the Eternal Rose #1) by Fiona Paul
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this purple and black Venetian mask, available from Etsy for $75. Slip this mask on over your eyes and you will be well on your way to joining the aristocratic elite of Renaissance-era Venice, dancing the night away with your handsome and wealthy fiance. Or maybe you're the kind of girl who dreams of life outside the water-flooded streets and canals of Venice, who wants nothing more to live happily ever after with a true Italian artist. Add an air of mystery to your wardrobe and take life by the oars, just like Cassandra in Fiona Paul's 2012 novel, Venom (The Secrets of the Eternal Rose #1).

Cover Me Fashionable >> The Selection (The Selection #1)

The Selection (The Selection #1) by Kiera Cass
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this powder-blue tiered ballgown found at a local vintage clothing store which is very similar to that worn on the cover of The Selection. They just had this beauty sitting in the window, and the book nerd in me immediately goes "That's the one from the cover! Quick, get the camera!" Of course you will need to add a very, very fluffy petticoat or even a hoop skirt underneath to achieve that fuller look, but I'd say this is a pretty close match, wouldn't you agree?

Cover Me Fashionable >> Alice In Zombieland (White Rabbit Chronicles #1)

Alice In Zombieland (White Rabbit Chronicles #1) by Gena Showalter
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this stunning lolita dress, available from Qutieland for $174, which I am absolutely dying to get my hands on! I think this dress is an almost identical match to the one on the Alice In Zombieland cover, wouldn't you say? From the beautiful silky fitted bodice with very fairy tale looking sleeves, to the amazingly full chiffon skirt, I am, quite simply, in love with this dress. Imagine slipping on this number and finding your own path to Wonderland!

Cover Me Fashionable >> Everneath (Everneath #1)

Everneath (Everneath #1) by Brodi Ashton
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this gorgeous, albeit rather pricey, red chiffon ballgown from Halston Heritage. The color is so vibrant on this dress, and even though it's a little off from the cover dress, I feel like it captures the same otherworldy feeling present on Brodi Ashton's book cover, don't you think? Now all I need is a pair of gorgeous pumps, some atmospheric fog, and a smoldering hot guy to pull me from the darkest depths of the underworld!

In Honor by Jessi Kirby
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is this sweet summer dress, courtesy of ModCloth. I love the feeling of a nice polka-dot dress as I cruise down the street in my car on the road to anywhere but here, wouldn't you agree? Now all you need is a pair of cute cowboy boots, and you are set! How do you think they compare?

Cover Me Fashionable >> Enchanted

Enchanted by Alethea Kontis
Cover Me Fashionable is a weekly meme hosted by The Lost Lola, which features clothing finds by readers which match the outfits worn on the covers of their favorite books. This week's fashionable cover find is a gorgeous cocktail dress which is an almost perfect match to that seen on the cover of Enchanted by Alethea Konti, the most noticeable difference being the length. I would love to slip this dress on and head out to a cafe to read my copy of Enchanted, just to see if anyone notices the similarity. How do you think they compare?
