ABOUT THE BOOK: See my post Gone Girl

ABOUT THE OUTFIT: (this may SPOIL the plot!) My clever little sociopath, you’re a New York City girl who has been transplanted to the Midwest by your unfeeling husband. You’ve left your homecity, but this necklace shows that your heart is still in the Big Apple. However, this heart is a little misplaced just like your actual heart.

Jeans are the perfect attire to be “abducted” in. They are comfy and versatile for when you’re staging your own disappearance. Your shoes are NYC-chic flats that will be easy to run in as you’re fleeing the scene. Plus, they match the skulls on your knitted sweater. Black to match the cover, the skull sweater is an ominous reminder of your killer potential.

The red polish represents the blood on your hands that you can’t quite wash away (and it matches the title beautifully!). The iPhone cover is my nod to the husband, as he repeats “fuck you bitch,” “psycho bitch,” and “crazy bitch” throughout the book. I imagine him listening to this song.

Oh, you should also dye your hair blonde, because your a beautiful, angelic demon. Why is it always the blondes that are psycho?
