The Paris Wife by Paula McLain
I chose to focus more on this other cover, rather than the Canadian hardcover, as it shows a bit more of the clothing.
With some classic simple pieces like the dress and shoes, matched with a 1920s style bracelet from High Street which show the simplicity of how Hadley lived, not entirely embracing the “extravagant” lifestyle.
I chose a flower hat by Julie Sinden that reminded me of the Canadian book cover (and which I actually own the grey hat/green flower version - and have received countless compliments on! LOVE this hat.)
And of course, to top off the classic look, a subtle nude OPI manicure.

Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Although the dress, which is quite a nice match, is from David’s Bridal, I wanted to un-glam it up with some leather gloves and boots. The Dooney and Bourke gloves, because Juliette isn’t able to touch people without inflicting harm and the Anne Michelle boots because the buckles seemed significant to her circumstances.

Die For Me by Amy Plum
I just had to select one of my favourite covers to do for my first post. 
I found the perfect dress, a satin halter-neck dress from Carnaby Dress Boutique. Went with a nice touch of black nailpolish to match the design swirls, and with Noir de Chine from Bourjois - a Parisian brand. Finished off with a pair of understated nude heels so as not to overwhelm the whole look.
