Ladies and gentlemen, meet Lord Fat Cat.

In these hectic, panic-filled days before the release of Regency Love, Lord Fat Cat has been a source of comfort for us all. A cat of many talents and much knowledge, Lord Fat Cat continues to impart us with the wisdom of his many, lordly years.

And of course, you will have the opportunity to befriend Lord Fat Cat in your own adventures from 16 December. But be careful: although Lord Fat Cat is of a caring and giving nature, he is not always easily impressed—it will not do to disappoint him!

Costume Theatre- Tips and Tricks!

Hello sexy readers!

Samantha is wrapping up her talk at the Pride and Prejudice conference at the University of Cambridge (which we’re eager to be updated on : )!)

Hence I will be hijacking todays Tuesday Teaser with 6 tips and tricks for our latest app “Costume Theatre!”

So sit back.

Relax.

Tip number 1!

Stack up accessories!

You can layer up your accessories, like headbands and pearls. Be totally creative about it! You don’t need to use a headband just once and who’s to say that’s a necklace and not a bracelet?

Tip numero Duo

Layer up accessories and MIX UP eras (We’re being really rebellious here!)
The possibilities are endless!

Why have 1 feather when you can have 3 or 5? And why should only regency ladies get to drink tea?

Tip 3

Have fun posing before-hand! Get into fun positions with friends! (That didn’t sound as bad in my head) Role-play scenes from Pride and Prejudice.

“May I have the next dance, Miss Elizabeth?”

“You may.”

Tip 4

For easy hair, tie yours up before-hand and keep in mind the direction you are facing as different hairs work in different angles.

Tip 5

Animals are adorable! They’re also perfect victims for decoration. Top hats and moustaches look fantastic on these critters.

Hours of endless entertainment.

Tip 6

This is also a great, alternative and fun way to send out invitations to high tea or even just a thank you for coming to an awesome hens night.

So that’s it from me! Do you have suggestions, or some neat tips and tricks that I’ve missed out on? Or would you like to show off your costume theatre get up? Send in your suggestions or pictures! I’m lonely!

Many Thanks to my dear model Erica for providing some lovely photos : )

Tuesday Teasers: Mr Mortimer’s Haberdashery

So, where should one go to obtain the necessary lace and ribbons to complete our Regency attire? Why, Mr Mortimer’s haberdashery, of course!

Ribbons, fabric, and sketches--perhaps some of Mr Mortimer's latest commissions?

Ribbons, fabric, and sketches–perhaps some of Mr Mortimer’s latest commissions?

You’ll have a chance to visit Mr Mortimer’s haberdashery near the beginning of Regency Love, when you go shopping with your best friend to complete your outfit for the upcoming Spring Ball. Who knows, you might unexpectedly make some new acquaintances…

And, as with all our projects, Jenny brings you the artwork, Melody does her programming magic, and Samantha slabs you with text–Tea For Three, indeed!

Tuesday Teasers: The Hometown in Regency Love

Welcome to the first Tuesday Teaser, where we share titbits from our current projects. Today, Jenny brings you a piece of her lovely art:

Sunny skies, gossiping ladies, and some soulful, gentlemanly gazing.

Sunny skies, gossiping ladies, and some soulful, gentlemanly gazing.

Allow me to introduce the town of Darlington, the home location of our upcoming iPhone game, Regency Love. As you can see, the ladies are out for a stroll, donning their hats, while the gentleman remains dashing in his cravat and waistcoat.

Jenny is particularly fond of the gentleman’s colours, Melody likes that the townspeople are going on with their own lives in a scene that makes the world seem real, while Samantha adores the floral empire dress and wants one for herself.
