picked up the last of my clothing today

I have had some of this stuff for a few weeks but decided to wait to post pics until I had it all.

The clothing is from Tamara Lees. Tamara has been making my clothing since 2000.

It isn't quite sitting right as I threw it on very quickly to try and catch the last of the daylight and the batteries in the camera went flat. Better pics tomorrow during training.

I have 2 pairs of hose, one black pair and the dark plum pair I am wearing.
I have 2 doublets, both the same pattern.
The doublet in the pic is a velvet worked all over with silk leaves and flowers and lined in gold silk.
My other doublet is a wear around black linen lined in calico.
My arming coat is also black linen (pics of that tomorrow).
The coat of green wool is trimmed in fur and lined in a fine brown linen.

The vast majority of sewing on these clothes is done by hand. There is very little machine sewing. All the eyelets are done by hand.

I also need to replace all the temporary shoelaces with proper points with brass tips.

The turnshoes and chaperon are from Historic Enterprises. I am really happy with these. The shoes are great and fit perfectly. The chaperon is such a cool hat

I will be making a pair of long riding boots for myself to go with this kit.

Sorry about the stupid look on my face, feeling pretty sexy in all this stuff
