Oh, how I wish this was a higher quality scan! That said, you can still see the excellent Greek Key-like trim on the gown, and it is yellow and grey- my current color obsession!
The Beau Monde, November 1837.
Oooh! I love that green gown. And that blue cloak is quite a statement piece!
Ackermann’s Repository, Promenade Dresses, August 1809.
Such lovely outfits! Love the crossed detail in the back!
(and quizzing glass!)
PS- these are big images! Open them in new tabs to get the full glory!
La Belle Assemblee, Evening Dress, December 1810.
This is definitely before La Belle found their footing with illustrations, but look at the gorgeous detail on that gown! The deep lace around the hem is lovely.
Fashions of London and Paris, London Head Dresses, April 1799.
These are adorable little things!

I am LOVING those awesome van dyked ruffles on the hems!
La Belle Assemblee, Walking Dress, March 1819.
So pretty and frilly and beautiful!
Petit Courrier des Dames, 1834.
A wonderful collection of spring bonnets! Aren’t those colors just delicious?
The Lady’s Museum, Morning and Evening Dress, November 1819.
THAT. PELISSE. Easily one of the loveliest things I have ever posted on this here tumblr. The colors are so gorgeous and I adore that trim work.
The Ladies Pocket Magazine, Walking Dress, January 1834.
This color is just stunning, especially paired with the bright gold/yellow.
