"In the Victorian era, fans were the ultimate playful props that could communicate all sorts of messages. A fan placed near the heart meant “You have won my love.” A half-opened fan pressed to the lips was an invitation, saying, “You may kiss me.” Hiding the eyes behind an open fan meant “I love you,” while opening and closing the fan several times was a chastisement, implying, “You are cruel.” Given how much a fan could come in handy, it’s a shame they ever invented air conditioning."
Saying so much, without saying anything at all (I need to work on that....), all while still looking fabulous! Damn, the Victorians knew what they were doing...(particularly the Steampunk ones).
Dude, I'm totally gonna start carrying a fan around! That's so awesome lol
