Regency Correspondance Group

My best friend and I send letters to one another, so the art of letter-writing has not quite died out (though I am woefully behind in getting back to her, as usual). For those of you who yearn for the long-lost days of polite correspondence I have good news! The Regency Society of Virginia recently sent this little piece of news to all of its members:- Our sister organization, the Oregon Regency Society , has invited any interested RSV members to join in a correspondence group.  Their members have been sending letters, cards and various tokens through the post.  You may participate "in character" or as yourself and even choose the sorts of things about which you wish to correspond.  To sign up go to http://ors.wufoo.com/forms/z7x3k1/ Enjoy!

The Style That Ruled the Empires- Exhibition Review

I am getting to be quite bad about cross-posting my blog entries, but I find that since the Regency period is related so perfectly to both the Georgian era and the 19th century I just can't decide which audience to share it with. My husband and I attended an exhibition yesterday afternoon that I think my readers here would enjoy hearing about. For more information (spolier alert: there are empire gowns!), you can visit my other blog at http://olympesdiary.blogspot.com/ Enjoy!
