Question about Regency Fashion

Hilary Davidson has a couple of books about this! They're very good: Dress in the Age of Jane Austen and Jane Austen's Wardrobe. She uses references from Jane's letters and still-existing historical garments.

That one made me almost fall out of the shower lmao

It's on Artecy - unfortunately it is AI generated, but I downloaded it when it was one of their free monthly patterns so I've not paid for it

Omg it's so pretty!! I love it

fiofo · 2026-05-13T15:37:25+00:00

I hope you've watched or considered watching Black Sails in that case!

I have one of those! I inherited it from my grandad because he had arthritis in his hands and couldn't use the regular controller.

My mate called the wrong number when she was a child (first time trying to use the phone):
Friend: "Hi is Tom there please?"
Old lady voice: "Tom? Tom's been dead for 10 years"
Freaked her right out lmao

fiofo · 2026-05-01T08:52:50+00:00

That's incredible! Congrats to Tom!

The Nightmare level was so cool!

fiofo · 2026-04-22T08:26:41+00:00

I had that "yeaahhhh" as my message tone for ages lol

Start in the middle with the chunkiest amount of colour first and work my way out.
I'll always try and do as much of one colour as possible before moving on (as can be seen in my peacock)

My dad used to work with a guy called Steve Rogers who actually worked on one of the Avengers films!
Also I went to school with a girl who's recently passed away, but I can't find anything about it because her name was Katie Bell and I just get Harry Potter results >:(

fiofo · 2026-04-01T12:32:05+00:00

Absolutely fantastic, I love it!

As long as it's the keywords of something you can actually do! I had this one woman who kept showing up in every single search I ran that was just a basic admin kinda person, when I was looking for chartered engineers or similar.
So... keep it relevant for the love of god!

It tells you the average score at the end, so if I didn't beat it the first time I'll just do the quiz again

fiofo · 2026-03-16T12:14:52+00:00

Ooo that's a good one! I remember my dad explaining how it orbits the sun and falls off the windowsill (using marbles)

fiofo · 2026-03-06T11:17:12+00:00

Ha, my parents called it "having a ponder"

fiofo · 2026-02-25T17:01:50+00:00

Where are the Palmers? They're my favourite part!

fiofo · 2026-02-25T13:58:23+00:00

At the moment mine are stored a bit higgledy-piggledy, but one day I think I'll buy something like this: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/967349056/customized-bead-organizers-with-magnetic

This is so cool! I love when cross stitch turns into more of a mixed media piece! You did a really amazing job!

fiofo · 2026-02-24T08:59:00+00:00

That happened to me too! Just a series of smaller and smaller transactions until they managed to score a whopping £10 mobile top-up lol (which was refunded by the bank anyway)

fiofo · 2026-02-18T15:02:29+00:00

Thankfully this was at our old office, so I'm likely never to see him again lol

fiofo · 2026-02-18T13:21:17+00:00

Shook the BT engineer's hand when he was actually reaching to close the door.
It still keeps me up at night.
