A Historical post

Have you seen the latest American Duchess pre-sale? The Victorian button boots? Well, now you have.

I want these so much. Unfortunately, things like fixing the traction control on my car (I swear, the day after the warranty went up, that dang light came on) mean I can’t hop in the pre-order (oh fates, please, please, please let me win if Lauren runs a contest for these), but my woes shouldn’t stop you!

They’re so pretty. And Victorian. And lovely. And likely entirely unrealistic for daily wear, with the buttons and all, even though I would love to wear them daily anyhow. Nonetheless, go on. Get thee to American Duchess!

Also, while I’ve been lazy about blogging, they ran a pre-sale for 1920s Spectator T-straps called the 23 Skidoo. They’re now in production and are the bee’s knees!

The links in this post are affiliate links for American Duchess, meaning I may get a bit of money if you buy their shoes after clicking one, however I have spent my own money on their products and think they’re awesome. The affiliate links will just help subsidize my next American Duchess purchase, I hope. ;) Like these boots. If you have something against affiliate links, here’s one that isn’t: www.american-duchess.com

  • This is an arbitrary list of blogs I’ve remembered to add. I follow so many wonderful ones. I’ll keep adding them, but if I showed you all of them, this list would stretch to next week! At last count, I have over 70 quilting/fabric blogs and another 50+ sewing ones in my Google Reader subscriptions, but perhaps some housecleaning is in order…
