What do you love best/interests you most about the Regency Era?
Valerie says, “The Regency was such an interesting time in English history. With the Prince Regent in charge with his freewheeling attitude and Napoleon lurking about, it’s full of plot lines. Plus, the gowns and bonnets are my favorite!”
What do you like the most about The Beau Monde? How long have you been a member?
Valerie says, “I’ve been a member of the Beau Monde since 2008 or 2009, I believe. It’s always been such a rich source of information and camaraderie for those of us who adore this genre.”
