My favorite kind of tux ever, but not, I think, correct for Victorian....

Still, not going to stop liking it!

Dropped this for a while because we were going to go look at skating boots, but as we haven't had time to do that, I picked up the search. Don't remember if I posted this or not, but some boots had ZIPPERS on the side, in addition to the lacing:

Looks like the zipper only goes part way down the side, but still, interesting. Plus, these are under $100, which definitely gets my vote.

These look kind of interesting too, from a regular shoe place:

Stuff that's in - patterns from Rocking Horse Farm, patterns, from Reconstructing History, shoes and stockings from Fugawee, voyageur hats, magnifier in wood case, and hooks & eyes.

Looks like we'll have to correspond with Fugawee to see about shoe sizing. Might be able to stretch my pair, but L's is definitely too small. Nice-looking shoes though, and well-made. The buckles are great!

The patterns should keep me busy for a bit, just browsing through them and trying to figure out which one to start on first...

But first... more dishwashing, cleaning, and finishing making those valances, LOL. Oh, and the cover for the freestanding wardrobe too, of course.

And no, we will _not_ be leaving the house to go anywhere today. Snow is plowed, freezing rain is now here.
