Inspired by: New York Times best-seller "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith (Quirk Books)

Even the very proper Jane Austen has been drawn into the bloody fray with a horror revision of her classic novel, now charmingly -- if incongruously -- titled "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies." The cover illustration is captivating and worth emulating.

What you'll need: neckline frills; skeleton makeup; fake blood; refined yet gory attitude.

Where to get it: Demure ruffled clothing at thrift stores or Kimchi Blue crochet applique top, $42, Urban Outfitters urbanoutfitters .com; paperback "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," $12.95, Urban Outfitters and bookstores.
