Detail of a fashion illustration by Paul Gavarni dated 19 March 1842: "Redingotte (sic) du matin. Gilet de cachemire et de piqué de Humann. - Chemises de Durousseau, chemisiers (sic) des princes."
There's something unsettling to me in a clean-shaven 1840s man with very short hair. You on the left with the white stock... knock it off.

What do you mean, "I am overdressed for the beach"?
Today's little local history lesson that you won't find on any of the Village des écluses or Pointe-des-Cascades websites:
From 1900 to 1959, the Soulanges canal was where most boats would pass through to navigate the Saint-Laurent river in the area South-West of Montreal. At Pointe-des-Cascades, right next to the canal, there was an industrial site where all the maintenance materials for the canal were being built and stored, but when the canal closed in 1959, that site was left abandoned. In 1986, the site got revived, and the industrial buildings were repurposed as a summer theatre, restaurant and boutiques, and the riverside, as a small beach. However, the site was abandoned once again in the late 2010s, only to be picked up again by a new team wanting to restore the 80s resort it once was.
So, how is my 1980's does 1910's nautical outfit? I have also added a picture of my brother and I on that day, two pictures at Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue at sunset (with my sister and a different hat) and a picture of the abandoned "Hotel" (which was never a hotel) at Village des écluses, taken in April, on my Instagram post.
Outfit rundown
Skirt: vintage Pink House
Top: old Axes Femme
Hat: vintage
Shoes: old Queen Bee
Parasol/umbrella (served both purposes that day): Alice and the Pirates
Navy cat stamp brooch: Via Carousel
All other jewellery: vintage

Continental Army Pvt. Deborah Sampson Gannett in her wedding dress, 1785.
(aka I can't stop collecting gender non-conforming 18th century New Englanders, and got really excited when I realized a gown I'd saved as reference on Pinterest was, in fact, her wedding dress).
