Sold to Morgan!

Aye, 2 inches it is!

Chemise has sold, belt bits are marked down to $25, which includes shipping!

I've got a lovely osnaburg shift/chemise for sale...in excellent condition...underarm gussets...23 inches laid flat one side pit to pit ...$35.00 Also, a pile of belt buckle bits...not sure of the metal...it's heavy, very detailed...$30.00...I'm sure one of you gentlemen who work with leather could make a wonderful belt or baldric for these parts! Any takers?

awwww...thanks all!

Thanks Lady B. I'm happy to hear it's more of a "whatever makes you comfortable" type of thing...I've got really beautiful linen stays that Lady Brower made for me that I usually wear on top of everything, and I'm not bothered by the bulk underneath...but, I just made a silk petticoat that I think looks lovely on top of the stays...so I'm glad to hear that it's fine to wear it that way also. I do wear the fichu to protect myself from sunburn, but also so I feel a bit more "dressed", since I don't have a jacket, short gown or mantua... Even though I think of my persona as a woman with a questionable background, I think she would attempt to look like a lady...;^) ...and thanks to Chole Black and her wonderful blog for the petticoat "recipe". I'm a terrible seamstress, but her simple directions made it a breeze!

Thanks Silkie!

Sorry to move away from the current topic, but I had a quick question regarding petticoats...I've seen examples showing them UNDER stays, and examples showing them OVER stays. What's the proper placement when one doesn't own a mantua (yet!)??? Here's my current clothing "sandwich": shift under petticoat pockets over petticoat apron stays fichu Any help would be greatly appreciated! Conny

Perfect!!!! Love, love, love those stays!!!!!

Sorry Jack, that's a bit past my regular commute!

I'm trying to make some space, so these lovely working stocks and a fantastic tattered old fishing net must go...anyone interested? First to answer here gets the goods...you've got to pick them up from my house a.s.a.p. though, so please keep that in mind. I'm in Sebastian, FL. I'll send you a message with my address. Thanks!

Aye! Capt' Rob is right on the mark! I did indeed wake up with new ink...my lovely husband (and source of the evil drink), had taken the liberty of writing math formulas and drawing arrows and labels for certain body parts...on me belly...grrrrrrrrrrrrr.........he BEST be sleeping with one eye open from now on, as I've got a big Sharpie with his name on it, that scurvy dog!!!!

...Thanks to all for yer kind hospitality!...and yes, me head is feeling much better... ;^) Conny

http://www.gggodwin.com I haven't bought from them before, but the shoes they have on their site are really nice...about $150 though, still a bit steep, but cheaper than the one's from the UK! Conny

Thanks to all the fine gentlemen who understand me delicate condition!!!!

...ughhh...please disregard any douchey, non-politically correct comments that may have been uttered during a whiskey induced episode...but honestly, if you're easily offended, you should probably just suck it, anyway....

...Ohhhhhhhh... that's lovely! It's always interesting to see what I've written after I've been on a bender...I'm going to go throw up now...

Hello all...I know I've been creeping around the boards for a bit...without introducing meself...sooooo, here it goes...I'm drunk, I'm here and...hell...might as well buy a round for everyone....drink up ye cheap bastards!!!! I'll be having some Jameson's, neat, thank you very much...
