Thanks to June's Journey for sponsoring this video!

Ok, so this might be the dumbest video I've ever made, but I also kinda enjoyed it? 🤷🏻‍♀️ We're all hit with Bridgerton fever (no I haven't read 4 of the books in the past month, whatever do you mean?!) and I got to thinking about how the Regency era is always popular for romance novels, how we all still thirst after Colin Firth and/or Matthew Macfayden in Pride and Prejudice, and just...how...*good* the men look during this era. Like...damn.

Hot Damn.

So, in the spirit of having a good time, being incredibly silly, and looking for any excuse to wear the dumbest cap of all time. I thought we'd have a little look at a small selection of portraits and just have a good time. This is all in good fun and not meant to be taken seriously in any way.

...though I think Hamilton on Ice would be amazing...
