Since all of these pictures are of Miranda I might as well tell you who she is.

Miranda...
I thought of calling this post 'Dress Envy', for that is really all it is. But I guess that wouldn't look to good as a title.

Miranda is the daughter of Prospero in the Shakespearean comedy The Tempest. She grew up all alone on an island with her father. She eventually marries Ferdinand prince of Naples. (Nice life, huh?)

And that is essentially all that you have to know. All of these paintings a have admired at various times, I just thought that I would put them all together in a post called 'Miranda'.

I take it you like her clothes? I do, too. I also like her hair in the last two paintings. :)

Aye! Her hair looks a wee bit like yours in those last two now that I think of it. ;)
I think the dress in the middle is my favorite, actually. :)
That's the one I like best, too. :)

Yeah, :) I like it because the style, the long, full skirt, and no long sleeves, is a completely made up style, a dress like that would have had long sleeves. :)
