When embarking on an Edwardian era sewing project, it is critical to look at fabrics, colors, and textures to re-create the most authentic outfit possible. Prior to 1910, finding color illustrations or swatches of fabrics is very difficult. My collection is growing, but heavily favors the late teens when color printing was more economical. The

Decade Lookbook: 1910's Part 2 Fashion from 1910 to 1919 in the Western world was characterized by great opulence in the first half of the decade-- a stark contrast with the somber practicality of garments worn during the Great War, or WWI. Men's pants were worn cuffed to ankle-length and creased. Skirts rose from floor length to well above the ankle and women began to bob their hair. This is my second 1910's lookbook; click here you'd like to see the rest of my decade lookbooks. DOWNLOAD: You can find these sims on the gallery under Origin ID: eregister or you can download the tray files here (mediafire, no ads.) You will still need to download all the CC for your sims to look like mine. I created four sims for this lookbook (from left to right, first photo): Noor, Neolani, Alex and Briana; that's the order you'll find their CC. Thank you SO much to the CC creators I used and enjoy!

A story from the April 1916 McCall's Magazine on auto-camping across the United States from The Vintage Traveler (a fabulous blog and fellow vintage pattern lover!) Lizzie explains ... From Coast to Coast, A Nine-Thousand-Mile Vacation for Two for $350. The story is the first person account of Beatrice Backus and her teacher husband’s decision to drive from Massachusetts to San Francisco during his summer break. In 1916 the automobile was still relatively new, and many parts of the country did not have any paved roads. There was no highway system, no AAA, no reliable maps for many places. But that did not stop these intrepid travelers who decided to auto-camp their way across the country and back. Scans from the May 1913 McCall's Magazine that this lucky blogger found at a garage sale!! Scans from the December 1911 McCall's Magazine from Clearly Vintage.
