Taobao recommendations

Can anyone recommend me some good taobao shops for everyday-style Hanfu? I’m looking for something I could wear to work.

Tea time

Making Fuding white tea with a nice outfit for this #hanfuselfie. Then I went out to the balcony to “show off” my extremely shaggy bonsai/penjing.

Warring States Cdrama Recommendations

Hey everyone! I’m wondering if people can recommend any Cdramas set in the Warring States or Qin period? I’m especially interested in series that strive for some level of historical accuracy.

Legend of Haolan is set in Warring states period.

Carottie · 2022-08-28 13:47:51

And King´s woman is set in Qin dynasty. But I don´t think it´s historically accurate. Just that the male lead is Qin Shi Huang (Ying Zheng) and he conquers the world. But A´Li (the female lead, his wife) is fictional. And most of the story focuses on A´Li so it´s more about romance than history.

The Qin Empire series, about the development of the Qin state during the Warring States period, has received excellent reviews. And the fourth installment of the series, Qin Dynasty Epic, was released in 2020.

I liked this one: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLM89UxxI7cjIng9sNHeT94ZhB1FNBBM9C it’s quite old, and I don’t have any evidence of its historical accuracy, but from my humble point of view, it’s not bad. 😉

Something I painted over the summer. The outfit isn’t meant to be historically accurate, haha. However, the talisman design is based on my research of actual historic Song dynasty Daoist talismans. The idea is that this character is a God and that is the talisman used to summon her.

新年快乐!

Took some photos with my brand new reversible robe and some very old New Year’s animals. Both critters are from the last cycle, so 12 years ago.
Tiger has the words “love forever” tattooed on his butt.
I know we still have another month until Rabbit year, but she seems eager to take over.

Hanfu in Vienna

I visited a friend in Vienna last weekend and wore my new qun (got with points from the newhanfu market!) to the Hunderwasser Village. This lovely place was designed by the local architect, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, and has a very fun and experimental style.
