Still no decision

[frualeydis]

I have spent the morning trying on different outfits and the verdict is:

I will go to the museum shop and see if they have any fitting brooches I can wear with my peplos-dress. If they have I guess it's a sign. I have a checked undertunic in grey wool that could go for undyed, but since the peplos also is checked I think there may be too much checks. Suddenly I wish I hadn't used up all my beige thin wool for linings.

If I don't find good brooches I will wear my viking outfit. Yes. I realized that it's very comfortable and that it would be fun to wear tortoise brooches and beads and stuff.

The bliaut is fixed, but I think that my reluctance to wear it means that I still haven't got over the overdose of bliaut-wearing which I realised I had maybe three years ago. I have worn bliauts a lot, the 12ty century definitely being on of "my" centuries, but I must have got fed up with them, because I feel almost no enthusiasm for them now.

Are you going to the event tonight? I'll stop by Anna's place, and it would be nice to stop by for a bit. Haven't seen you guys for a while now.

Nope, not until tomorrow afternoon and I would LOVE to see you too.

I'm not wearing my peplos for this event and I have both round (flat) and square-headed brooches that you could borrow. Let me know if you want me to bring any of the pairs.

I would love to borrow your square-headed brooches. And I promise not to get drunk and lose them.

OK, I'll bring them with me. And I'm also bringing back your copy of the Viking headgear book.
