    I swear I would dress like this everyday if social anxiety wasn’t a thing

      I have found that, the anxiety always makes me think ppl are looking at me. Dressing up (any way) doesn't change the anxiety at all it just means ppl are looking and usually smile at you so it makes it easier because then you don't feel that little paranoid feeling u just know. p.s. the effect of wearing fun clothes rubs off on everyone. I've had plenty of people tell me that what I wear makes them feel more confident in trying new things OR helps their anxiety coz they know the attention is being pulled elsewhere. It's a win win. P.P.S it took a while and few compliments before I got comfy doing this but the reward of wearing what I want is so worth it. My style is historically influenced not accurate so typically I ALMOST fit in. I buy everything from thrift stores and sometimes I feel like a clothing historian/protector.

      Do it!! Ofc you don't HAVE to but if you want to! They say anything you do for a long enough time becomes your comfort zone, and I've definitely found that to be the case with wearing "weird" clothing! When I started I was already anxious when wearing a frilly blouse instead of a t-shirt!

      I guess a childhood of being picked on had the effect of making me dead to much of what people think. My bosses discovered they could get me to wear a pink panther suit. I didn't care. If I feel I have a reason, that's all it takes.I do have rules, but life is more fun this way. You go, giiirrrrrrllll !!
      Its beautiful !.

      Look into mindfulness and exposure therapy. I hope you achieve your goals and if people are looking at you wearing that, it's because you look amazing.

    • @TheLugiaSong
      @TheLugiaSong 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

      Do it, I've found it bothers you less and less the more you do it. Sure maybe people will look, but they'll probably be looking at how awesome you look, and those few folks that think you're weird... Who cares about them, they suck! It is very fun wearing nice clothes, it will probably make you feel more confident too.

      The ensemble is very beautiful! It looks extremely comfortable. Beautifully cut, styled, and fitted. Ladies wore their hair up, simple, but so elegant. Very little jewelry. Probably a simple bar pin or single bead or pearl strand. Clothing went with and defined the times; Simply elegant. And a lady was a lady regardless of social/monetary class, and most conducted themselves with class, manners, and decorum. Not all, by any means, but she represented the times she lived in with a grace, beauty, and attitude to make those years seem to be the best in which to be alive! ❤💘 💘 💙 🍷

    • @ktrainbow9765
      @ktrainbow9765 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Why wait?!? Just make the clothes and wear them! What is someone gonna say? "You look beautiful?" "Wow you look like you are headed for the history books?" I would take that as a compliment on how accurate your replica was
      I'm currently working on 50's vouge dresses for my daughter's. I like these dresses better than the cheap plastic dresses offered by the commercial mall dresses.
      Be bold! Be brave! And you can have a story to share with people if how you used to wear 1897 walking suit that you made from scratch! Not many people can say that! You could even steam punk it up with some gears glued on here and there. This is ART! And art is subjective. Don't forget California's new AIDS art piece that looks like a sphincter. If that can pass as "art" so can a beautiful walking dress.

    Omg the hair pin through the hat was genius I love learning how people used stuff before a zippers and Bobby pins

    • @eldupont3095
      @eldupont3095 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +70

      that's a hat pin! they're specifically for keeping a lady's hat on her head. if the hat was big enough, sometimes she'd use more than 1!

      Hat pins were used to keep hats from flying away, and could be used as a weapon in a pinch

    Please do make a video about making a wrapper. I want one so badly. All I have is an uglier-than-sin, cold-in-winter duster. It's convenient and comfy, but I hate the way it looks. I wish wrappers were still in.

      I have a few simple t-shirt material dresses I’ve kept even as they have become too full of holes or too short for outside wear that I use as almost day pyjamas but I would love to make myself a wrapper to have a more elevated home dress.

    You must get a lot of attention when you go out. Your clothes and hair is beautiful. I love the clothes from that era as well. Thank you for the education of historical clothes. I once took part as a model for a small Mexican community. It was a fund raiser. The clothes were historical Mexico's dress for women and men. Mostly women. I dont remember what I wore, but I love the Mariachi clothes. Historically they were horse women and men dressed like this. Soooo beautiful. Historically they did not play instruments. They were horsemen. I'm not Mexican, but lived and taught school on the border. The fund raiser was right on the border in Nogales, Az. It was so much fun.

    What I'd like to see: what my grandmother might have worn in 1919 when she was 25 and traveled to Florida from Massachusetts by boat. Defying her father's will. Without a chaperone. 😳 😊 She was a woman ahead of her time. Go Grandma!

    • @Zephirite.
      @Zephirite. 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I think the term “Goldilocks” referred to how the sleeves were a pleasing amount of puffy, and the skirts were the perfect length. It’s not the name of the period, so “Goldilocks era” may not yield any search results. Just a head’s up!

    • @felicitysileas1051

I look better when I roll out of bed. I miss the elegance and class we used to have. Thank you for bringing such beauty into an otherwise parched world (in this capacity.)
