Romantic Inspiration

By -
It's Friday. You've had a long week. Grab some coffee from the break room, sit back, and enjoy these pictures of outfits inspired by the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Then dig up some lace, corsets, huge skirts and candy colored silk for your own Revolutionary romp. (Click for larger images!)
(I know the second image is a Dolce and Gabbana ad, the Emily Blunt pictures are from Vanity Fair, and the last set is from Vogue Spain; but most of these have been on my computer so long I've forgotten the source. Let me know if you remember!)

These are lovely. I keep thinking how satisfying it would feel to sit in some of the more free, huge skirts and gather them up around you.

I came on here to finish my post for today, but now I think I would rather go put on all my frilly, romantic clothing and frolic around my apartment instead.

How I wish we still lived in those days of corsets and stockings. It feels so incredibly girly and sexy.

Best of all, the earrings I've featured here today all cost only $12.95. (Although the shop sells some other higher priced goods).

We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at ...

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
