Regency Era: 1800’s…The era of Jane Austen! “No one can be really esteemed accomplished who does not greatly surpass what is usually met with. A woman must have a thorough knowledge of music, singing, drawing, dancing, and the modern languages, to deserve the word; and besides all this, she must possess a certain something in her air and manner of walking, the tone of her voice, her address and expressions, or the word will be but half-deserved. All this she must possess," added Darcy, "and to all this she must yet add something more substantial, in the improvement of her mind by extensive reading." #regency#janeausten#1800s#vintage#books#accomplished#discoverme

Almost forgot…I love this era because Elizabeth Bennet is my spirit animal!😆 Seriously though, the dresses, the eloquence, the importance of books and wit…I would love to spend some time in this era!
