From the diary of Samuel Pepys (1663-1703)

So home to dinner, where my wife having dressed herself in a silly
dress, of a blue petticoat uppermost and white satin waistcoat and
white hood (though I thikn she did it because her gown is gone to the
tailor's) did, together with my being hungry (which always make me
peevish), make me angry.
		-- Pepys' Diary, 22 Mar. 1667
