Georgian January Days 13-17

I can’t believe we are already in the middle of January. Time is so weird! It seems like yesterday my kids went back to school, but then November and December seemed to drag on incredibly slow thanks to back to back home repair issues, and now it’s hump day in the middle of January!
Anywho, I am still sticking with the Georgian January challenge! So here are the last couple of days of prompts to catch up on:

Day 13 of #georgianjanuary2024 is Elaborate. Even though I hopped onto the Bridgerton train fairly late, I IMMEDIATELY fell in love with the wigs that Queen Charlotte wore. I already wear pretty colorful locs that I change every 3-4 months or so, but these wigs are EPIC! I’ve made my own wigs before and installed braids/locs/twists on myself for years. But now that I know how to do a wig cage, I can definitely take my historical hair style game even further!!!

Yesterday was day 14 of #georgianjanuary2024 – I’m honestly surprised im still sticking to posting every day (or at least every other day when I forgot and have to do a catch up post), yay me!!! The prompt for Day 14 was: Simple. Now for as much as I LOOOOVE being extra, and wearing fancy outfits, with fancy jewelry and actually out time and effort into my historical looks (as opposed to my everyday wardrobe which is Eclectic art teacher meets comfy witchy vibes), I feel that a #chemisealaraine is such a simple garment and beautiful enough on its own. One color, an easy piece to work up, and accentuate with a large ribbon around the waist, and bam! You have a simple look that is super cute!

Forgot about day 15 of #georgianjanuary2024 – the theme was Miniature. For our wedding anniversary last year-I got my husband the greatest gift of all! A historical style painting of ME!!! And then I turned it into a pin that he can wear on his fob, or just to carry around (thanks to @ladykatehs for the materials!)

day 16 of #georgianjanuary2024 – the prompt was Large. One of the things I love about historical costuming, but in particular the 18th century were the BIG HATS!!! 🙌🏾 I am already a giant, and I like to have big hair, big accessories, and just everything big because it balances out in my eyes!
