Why am I not: Kate Sheppard

Let's all take a moment to appreciate just how fabulous this lovely lady is. For those of you who don't know/care, this is Kate Sheppard, largely (but probably not entirely) responsible for gaining the vote for women in New Zealand. We were also the first country to get the vote, so to me that spells "Kate Sheppard and our suffrage movement is the motherfucking shit".
Anyway, I've been pondering in history class, the way the women dressed in this era was just so nice. (Yes, I do notice these things, no matter how interesting the topic is)
I thought I might make a replica of the top she's wearing in this photo, it would be like my own little secret homage to her. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and because I can't imitate her by getting the vote again or making awesome speeches, I think that it's best to imitate in the best way that I know how.
I'll keep you posted.
And you know what? Kate Sheppard will have another role in this process!

She just can't stop being involved in my life, can she? Can't say I'm complaining.
