V325: Introducing "Tavistock" Authentic Victorian Button Boots

...and it's about time!  I am so excited to finally be able to release for pre-order our first boot, and indeed the only completely authentic Victorian button boot available!<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.american-duchess.com/" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoUZPQwRgBhZSmV0ilzA4Vd2hhkJ0ajlYVuQLLm-GhDZiqAtn1_hSk-cegVXle2XiasbLrf_eXF2wL1M6UZsjkfAyG7PgY4z3Ey6DSQ2dTsmjK_CndjWbG_WvFtP-SjeTubA67EDEfz0sz/s400/ChrisStowellPhotography.com_20121130_000117__DSC6211.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tavistock Victorian Button Boots - new from American Duchess Historical Footwear</td></tr></tbody></table>"Tavistock," named for the home of Charles Dickens, is very closely based on original examples of button boots from many fine museums, including my local Churchill County Museum in Fallon, Nevada.  These beauties are made of luxurious black calf skin, lined in real pigskin, and do *not* have a zipper up the inside of the leg.  You really do have to button them up, just like our foremothers.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.american-duchess.com/" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMtA99DUmCIsEdAgGiwokrBP4TTW3vIdTUkrdZ4oW4U3sjODhyLxPooEIt3bSyqUyK6bxv8wkCh-a1W5IimaVGooaRcoj-HaCVFea7aV85LRn-mdh7nfC4uDLxv-eAO94QNo5ikejXKSuS/s400/ChrisStowellPhotography.com_20121130_001034__DSC6220.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Functional and historically accurate steel-shanked buttons.</td></tr></tbody></table>I thought it would be cool to show you the development process of Tavistock, to lead you through a little journey from concept to reality.  Those of you who have been following Tavistock from the beginning will know that quite a lot has changed from the original design.  I'm here to explain why, and give a little insight into how things actually get made...<br /><br />Tavistock started as a request, of course, by rather a lot of you.  When I hear a goodly number of ladies asking for the same thing, I will look into the availability of something like it on the market already.  For the button boots, I only found "costume" versions, all with zippers up the inside, and none that really had that authentic look.  It seemed like an insurmountable task, to do away with the modern technology and somehow achieve fit for a large array of different ankle and calf sizes, but then I thought, "if you can fit boots with a zipper, why not another kind of closure?"<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

text-align: center;"></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsRzggcRpgRRu4rbEETDkl9LPXE9g_yfDTQvHNrU4GUOACF-OSFIPcl7xCeO344zlex9F1MD0_rnerxdgA7TO_TcoBJ1gFKuIuRjxlnlj0OTttxj9cr2XqLCIhIv5ZZ8qonJLzUT7_CQiT/s1600/AD-Tavistock-boot-revision-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto;

margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEili1xgEfAGxOi-40obQQVJyivsku4UXElSr5N9sMRkhjYEfhwIETadThnARRkPcxStDC84nb24DL8wuAkBKixOAmvp713ffBpfj6e1ac5padSHbvPZyySqMmauDSdNyshaAWdCCg7TbD9c/s1600/tav-heels.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto;

V323: American Duchess Historical Holiday Gift Guide

Happy Holidays to all of you and yours!  'Tis the season for jolly times, being thankful, and giving lovely gifts to your dear ones.  Stumped on what to give to your historical costuming gems?  Well here are a few small, stocking-sized ideas...<br /><br /><b>1. <a href="http://www.amazondrygoods.com/products/hand-crocheted-fingerless-mitts-with-band-cuff.html">Crochet Gloves from Amazon Drygoods - $15.95</a></b><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://cdn1.bigcommerce.com/server4000/f328b/products/1309/images/1599/unk-fnc-i__97197.1330285176.800.800.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://cdn1.bigcommerce.com/server4000/f328b/products/1309/images/1599/unk-fnc-i__97197.1330285176.800.800.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />These lovely little ladies' gloves are an excellent compliment to any Victorian ensemble.  Delightful and lacy, they add that little extra touch, while also being practical - no need to take them off for every little thing, as the fingerless feature allows full sense of touch, and anachronistic smartphone fiddling.  (Shhh! Don't tell!)<br /><br /><b>2. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/LitttleBits?section_id=5274509">18th Century Bath & Beauty Products from Litttle Bits Clothing Company - $3.00 - $10.00</a></b><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://img0.etsystatic.com/003/0/5232081/il_570xN.368071700_3tv1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="http://img0.etsystatic.com/003/0/5232081/il_570xN.368071700_3tv1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />She'll revel in sumptuous scents and period correct pampering products, with Litttle Bits' whole line of 18th century items, from<a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/105462337/1772-tinted-rose-balm-lip-salve-lip"> rose tinted lip balm ($8.00)</a> to lightly scented <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/107529471/18th-century-lavender-hair-and-face">lavender powder ($10.00)</a> perfect for powdering the hair as well as the face.  I have personally tried these products and loved them.  Try the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/105861798/lye-soap-the-moon-of-isis">Moon of Isis ($4.00)</a> or <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/105853697/cinnamon-and-ginger-lye-soap-small-bar">Cinnamon an Ginger Lye Soap ($3.00)</a>, and the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/105856891/18th-century-foot-bath-herbs-an-aromatic">18th Century Herbal Footbath ($10.00)</a>.  YUM.<br /><br /><b>3. <a href="http://www.burnleyandtrowbridge.com/neck-handkerchiefs.aspx">Historic Neckerchiefs from Burnley & Trowbridge - $18.00</a></b><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.burnleyandtrowbridge.com/images/products/detail/HAN6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://www.burnleyandtrowbridge.com/images/products/detail/HAN6.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />What better to fill the neckline of an 18th century gown than a period reproduction neckerchief?  Based on many extant examples, B&T's neckerchiefs are a fine, block-printed cotton, measuring approximately 34 inches square.  They come in a variety of colors and prints.<br /><br /><b>4. <a href="http://www.american-duchess.com/historic-shoe-buckles-accessories">American Duchess Clocked Silk Stockings & Buckles - $25.00 - $40.00</a></b><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.american-duchess.com/historic-shoe-buckles-accessories"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixPCOJAZFv11K_FuOLZAcmUHp3wBGGA28qbLh91zh3LiLW75q5mmGjbTmuY3mMt8Ttf9MCrKX1siXYQUhqlOaXDJ_vBXh9abToodmwF-sAoA5gCehTlbGHKsAmEh7CPpYm-y6538EUGKl-/s400/AD-shoes-stockings.jpg" width="352" /></a></div><br />Okay, I know these are my own products, but they really do make great gifts!  The stockings come in three color - the white is dyeable - with three different historical reproduction clocking designs.  They are 98% silk, with stretch at the tops to help keep them up.  Buy two or more and you get a discount.<br /><br />We have three styles of authentic Georgian shoe buckles, all based on extant examples.  Two are of sparkly paste stones, one wrought silver in an appealing naturalistic design.  Purchase buckles with a pair of <a href="http://www.american-duchess.com/shoes-18th-century">latchet shoes</a>, and get a discount.<br /><br /><b>5. <a href="http://www.kwaltersatthesignofthegrayhorse.blogspot.com/">Historic Jewelry from K.Walters at the Sign of the Gray Horse - $15.00 +</a></b><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcJ1CCux5RbFQtaf5Xg2KI1MEdGN-zUqhUHse7GdGcpoXEqOzCK99ZRVuXXJwOgORpf495Y3jSPReaigoOk-n1CqZ2g5x5IarOFHEMGRDbJ4Jf9zPWOXlo2s4xTPEzcrwaIEop7sPgbt0/s1600/DSCF7338.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcJ1CCux5RbFQtaf5Xg2KI1MEdGN-zUqhUHse7GdGcpoXEqOzCK99ZRVuXXJwOgORpf495Y3jSPReaigoOk-n1CqZ2g5x5IarOFHEMGRDbJ4Jf9zPWOXlo2s4xTPEzcrwaIEop7sPgbt0/s400/DSCF7338.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />Beautiful and authentic, Gray Horse pieces are exquisitely made, perfectly period, and will add that something special to gorgeous historical gown.  Plus, the proceeds from the sale of these items go to supporting Kim's rescue horses.  There are items for gentlemen and ladies alike, all of which have been researching and handmade.<br /><br /><b>6. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/rubyraven">17th and 18th Century Velvet Patches from Ruby Raven - $20.00</a></b><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://img2.etsystatic.com/000/0/5840796/il_570xN.255429694.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="380" src="http://img2.etsystatic.com/000/0/5840796/il_570xN.255429694.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />The last perfectly period touch is a Ruby Raven Velvet Patch Kit, which includes a large selection of patches in different shapes, sizes, and colors, along with a small bottle of spirit gum to affix the patch.  Wear as few as one, or as many as suits your mood.  Ruby Raven's kits are handmade in Alameda, California, by a wonderful member of the costume community.  Get kits in "Classic," "Gothic," and "Halloween" themes.<br />----------<br /><br />Happy Holidays!!

Yani, BİNİCİ ÇİZMELERİ elbette :)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Çoğumuz severiz bu çizmeleri.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Hem rahat hem şık olmaları bundaki en önemli etkenler bence.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Başta süper skinny jeanlerle olmak üzere pek çok şekilde stilize edilebilirler.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Eh, şimdi de benim sizlere birkaç binici çizmesi önerim gelsin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="color: #e06666;
