let's say you are a princess
What time period would you rule in?: 19th century, no doubt. My favorite era artistically and politically.
Which country or region would you rule over?: England, of course. Who wouldn't want to rule over a place like England? Successful, envied, and strong throughout the ages.
Which monarch (mythical or real) do you most admire (in terms of political ability, court life, looks, etc)?: This is difficult. I would have to say Queen Victoria, just because of the high point over which she reigned and the inspiration of an entire era.
Describe your court and your wardrobe: Definitely high fashion. I would want the whole deal, corsets, petticoats, laced boots, silk, lace, all the trappings, but still look exceptional.
Describe your prince (or princess!): He would have to be tall with dark curly hair. Eyes that are deep and thoughtful are a must, the color isn't important. He should be compassionate but strong and never afraid to take charge. I'm only assertive in public, so someone who can deal with that and then having to call the shots personally is a must. He must love music, of course, and it would be a plus if he were able to sing/play an instrument. That would just be peachy.
Which comes first: your prince or your ladies-in-waiting?: Well, that depends on the situation. I would have to choose my prince if he were absolutely perfect, my ladies would understand. They'd probably do the same thing.
How do you view/feel about love?: I think romance comes from the most unexpected of places and when you look for it, it's nowhere to be found. Since I've been looking, it's been hiding, but I have a feeling as soon as I declare I'm done with the search it's going to just pop up and be waiting to whisk me off my feet in a whirlwind, or at least that's what I hope. It must be beautiful though.
