Ale sent me some lovely prezzies. Look!

I am so excited that I may review something other than a kissing book for once and I have already bookmarked the dresses I will be having made when I get around to winning the lottery. There may have been (totally there was) some Kermit flailing especially when I looked through What People Wore When and saw how thorough it was. Oh joy! Oh rapture!
Thank you to faintingviolet for organizing the exchange and thank you to Ale for giving me something to swoon over.
Ooh, that “what people wore when” looks divine.
you’re welcome :) I actually went back and bought myself a copy of the Victorian and Edwardian fashion. The images were so good!
There was definitely some whimpering on my part.
Oh lord, I may have to get that Victorian and Edwardian fashion book. Both books look awesome. Those are great presents.
Its a pretty great book. So many pictures. (I may have been leafing through Ale’s copy picking out dresses I want for myself. So many stripes! So many pleats!)
I have no words to express how much I love a pleat.
[this is where I would insert one of the many photos of pleated dresses that I keep on my laptop, if I could]
