Victoriana

I love everything Victorian!
(I know-big surprise:)!
From the delicate porcelain...
to the amazing literature...
tea...
roses...
the fashions...
 the jewelry...
the architecture...
and of course, the women for which the era is named.
As I was perusing my favorite magazine this evening (brace yourself as this may come as a shock but my favorite magazine is Victorian Homes:) I stumbed across an add for the ultimate Victorian dream trip.
Visit this website to see more:
Oh how I want to go!!!
Maybe next year.
Until then I will be content enjoying all of the Victorian splendor mentioned above:).

  4. Your passion is equally shared... mine is for the beautiful needlework they left behind.
    Hope you are enjoying your new home and that Kramer has given his final approval.

  9. Hi Kim, I am entranced by the Victorian period as well. I would surely love to attend this show with you! Did you see Young Victoria when it came out in December I think. I just never found the time to go but I will look for it on DVD.

    Have a lovely day, Bonnie

    I agree, that would be an amazing show to see! I hope you do make it next year. I love all your photos. And I do love the latest issue of Victorian Homes! I can stare at the pictures for hours. :-)
