I really dig your posts, Barbara. I’m excited to follow along and read more.
Absolutely love your observations. Good treat stumbling on your blog.
I’m so glad you like it! I hope that I can continue to entertain and inspire you. 🙂
Thanks for your posts!
Are very interesting and having the reference at the end is perfect if you want to dig more
Thanks! I’m glad the references are useful. I realise it’s unusual for blogs to include full academic references, but it’s just the way that I am used to working! It is a good reminder if I ever need to go back and expand my ideas, or investigate something again in a different context.
Hi Barbara. Love your blog. I’ve been thinking about this kind of blog for some time and you’ve already done it bigger and better than I could have ever imagined. *standing ovation*
Hi Alison. Sorry I beat you to it! If you have any ideas or writing that you want to contribute, just let me know. 🙂
Hi Barbara, I love your blog, the angle of culture and impact on fashion is really interesting. I own a little online boutique (www.folklorique.co.uk) and develop a little blog about folklore and fashion. Are you interested in the subject, did you write anything about this? Maybe you would like to?
