Victorian dresses (1837 - 1901)

Pictures and illustrations of Cute and pretty Victorian era dresses 

Auguste Toulmouche - Dans la Bibliothèque

Jan Frederik Pieter Portielje - The Love Letter

This one, I'm not so sure about it's source. Supposedly it's from the Illustrated Police News December 11, 1869.

A duel between two ladies - Illustrated Police News December 11, 1869

Auguste Toulmouche - Dolce far niente

I like this navy themed one a lot. It's so Cute! Sadly, I couldn't find the source for these ones too.

William John Charles Pitcher - H.M.S. Pinafore costume

Book recommendation: Victorian Fashions: A Pictorial Archive.

Now this here book is exactly what it says on the cover, 123 pages filled with many illustrations of Victorian fashion goodness, mainly dresses. The book only has illustrations and the year that the trend came out, and that's it! So, if you're actually looking for reading material this is not the right book to look up. However, if you're like me and just want to look at pictures then, this is the book for you.

Artist - Tyson Tan - Krita

Going through the Steam Spring sale's recommendations and this software popped up. What drew me in, was the absolutely Cute mascot art!

Kiki with a Parasol - Tyson Tan, 2020

Her name is Kiki, she's a cyber squirrel conceived by the artist Tyson Tan. This whole post was made just to share this single picture. It's very Cute, I love it!

The Krita page on Steam showed this picture as a showcase, and I couldn't help but fall in love with it.

The artist has many original characters with a similar artstyle; manly drawn to be used as mascots for many free and open source software, like Kiki here:

American Classics, turned Itasha

 The result of liking American cars and Japanese Anime.

The title is pretty self-explanatory, Itasha; is two Japanese words, Ita- as in 'pain' and -sha for 'car'. So, even the Japanese know that these Anime-themed cars are pain or even sacrilege, to differing degrees. I (unsurprisingly) enjoy them. They can be tasteful, and they can be an eyesore. In this post I'll share some of the rarer ones —combining classic American cars with Anime wraps— specifying both the name of the character and or (media depicted) in addition to the car's make and model.

• 1972 Ford Mustang - Ikuno Dictus (Umamusume)

• 1976 Ford Pinto - Mint Fantôme (Virtual YouTuber)

Cute wrap!

• 1963 AMC Rambler 770 - Hatsune Miku (Vocaloid)

• 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Townsman station wagon  - Kayoko (Blue Archive)

• 2003-2008 Lincoln Town Car - Mayu Sakuma and Yukimi Sajo (The Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls)

• 1954 Ford F100 - Lily (Vocaloid)

Honorable mention:

• 1968 Plymouth Barracuda - Unknown.

I can understand how these cars can be cringeworthy or even painful to look at, but I don't hate them. I enjoy the concept of Itasha in general however, when I saw these classic American cars with Anime wraps, something clicked. They are quite rare; as I couldn't find many vehicles with these sets of criteria.
