Historical Links
Hello lovelies,
most
of the time my research is purely online and therefore I have amassed a
massive amount of ressources for sewing, lolita- and historical
fashion. I will put each of them in only one category, even though a few
might me applied. If you don't find what you are searching for or find a
dead link, leave a comment. Thank you.
