Tag yourself femme fatale edition:

Mata Hari: best taste in jewelry, loves old spy novels, just wants to dance, body confidence, knows what betrayal feels like. 

Delilah: likes to sleep in, will eat anything with honey, attracted to strength and vitality, has a hard time keeping secrets, dark and beautiful. 

Cleopatra: first woman in the family to pursue an education/career, piercing eyes, loves with her mind, wants to sit by the ocean, has a morbid side. 

Lady Godiva: stubborn as hell, political activist, nakedness is empowerment, bit of a hippie, questionable choice in lovers, excellent with animals. 

Helen of Troy: sad is happy, beautiful idealist, #metoo, would lie around in the sun all day, wears soft clothes over fashion, still believes in soulmates. 

Lilith: blogs about intersectional feminism, looks glorious in earthy tones, saves money for tattoos, has told and will tell hundreds of men to fuck themselves. 

Lady Macbeth: can quote poetry, deep, sultry voice, secretly afraid she’ll have a mental breakdown one day, will do anything for those she loves. 

Pandora: innocence was taken too young, curious as a cat, but satisfied in the end, light eyes, never lost hope in what love could be, too perfect.
