All Hail Honorary WordWench Kalen!

WardrobeThank you so much, Kalen, for enlightening us regarding pins, stomachers, and other such important Georgian niceties.  Since you're already an Honorary WordWench, we can't bestow that particular honor again.  But we can offer you this splendid 18th century Venetian wardrobe (the Ca' Rezzonico on the Grand Canal is holding it for you) to stash away your fabulous collection of two-hundred-year-old clothing, and wish you all the best with the sales of Lord Scandal.  Hail Kalen!

Off topic--but everyone scoot on over to Argh Ink to see pics of Jenny Crusie's newly-minted granddaughter Calliope! She's a living doll. And congratulate the grandmother of course--after all, she did all the work...

A Georgian Lady's Wardrobe Susan/Miranda, stepping up to the podium to welcome frequent commenter Kalen Hughes back to the blog.... Kalen Hughes’s new book, LORD SCANDAL, is a June 08 release and she’s here to talk about the clothing of the late Georgian era. Romantic Times Book Reviews described Kalen’s take on the late 18th century thusly: “Hughes' lusty, emotional second romance perfectly depicts the Georgian era in all its naughty glory -- with house parties, races, matchmaking, gossip rags and duels. This author is on her way to stardom.” For more about Kalen the author as well as her books, please stop by...
