Fashion Evolution
Readers of this blog know that I enjoy historical romance novels--not the trashy throw-away type, but the witty well-written ones that you come back to re-read again and again. Think Georgette Heyer and Loretta Chase. The latter has a blog, in conjunction with fellow authoress Isabella Bradford. It's called "Two Nerdy History Girls", and I check in with it several times a week. Totally fascinating, especially when it comes to historical fashion, from the 18th to the early 20th centuries.
