April wallpaper

by HML

April’s wallpaper is now available for download from Solitary Elegance.  I’ve also been able to add a little more information to January and February; it’s exciting to finally have the text describing the first Ackermann fashion plate.

Back to April:  most of the ladies have had to stand up since January, so this month’s pair is taking a seat for a well-earned rest.  The 1809 gown, on the right, is a full dress, while the gorgeous pink gown on the left is a ball dress from April 1812.  (Yes, it’s my favorite of the pair, as well as one of my all-around favorites.)   This month’s “General Observations on Fashion” article is a snarky delight, bringing to mind Dame Maggie Smith’s perfectly devastating “Difficult color, green.” Enjoy!

    Have been enjoying all your wonderful blogs. I just love everything that has to do with the Regency Era and especially Jane Austen.

    Thank you so much for these lovely wallpaper pages. I’ve printed them out and have made myself a homekeeping notebook where I keep track of chores, reading lists, and the wonderful blogs I visit. I can’t tell you what a special treat it is to turn to a page and have these lovely pages staring right back at me.

    Thank you soo much! :)
