Fashions I would bring back if I could

If I had the reach, money, style, and editor statues I would soooo bring these back:

BIG Hats. I love them. Not only for the horses and church but for every big celebration.

Hats. After watching Mad Men. I remember all the time at my grandma’s house we play with all her hats, how I would love to bring them back. No needs for perfect hair just a hat.

Fur coats. This is more of a have them I want to wear them with out getting paint on them. I wish I would of known since its still in over here in Bulgaria and the area to bring them. They are my grandma’s but now I can’t wear them since I really don’t want red pain on them. They are sooo warm.

Ballroom dress. Maybe its all this time away from home, but I would love to be able to go back to the ballroom dress of the England Royals.

Cowboy boots. Growing up as a kid I had a red pair that I loved. Then it was some time before I got new ones, but don’t worry once I come back home, I will be wearing them again. (This fashion I will sooo bring back)

Warrior Women

I just finished Warrior Women- An Archaeologist’s Search for History’s Hidden Heroines, by Jeannie Davis-Kimball, Ph.D.
It was a super good book and very interesting for me. I loved how it was out to change the history books on women, and show not only why there were left out of so much history but also went on the look to prove that women were a major part of the early history. Something that is still missing for the history books and Davis-Kimball tries to rewrite it or at least show that before when all the archaeology was done by men in men government it looked like men where in charge, bones, gold, prizes, gifts to the after life. Goes to the whole lens, you see what you want to see, they was men ruling the world and it turns out not to be true.
Its a must read or any Archaeologist or women study’s major.
Its mostly on the Amazon women that where written about in Greek and Roman history and to see if they are real or not. Then it talks about the Nomads in Russia, China, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia.
Then in the end it talks about the Celtics, and how the women had so much power along with British early queens, but how it changed over time.
Great read its written so anyone can read it and you don’t have to know about the history or areas beacuse she does a great job of explaining it all for you.
