QUEEN ELIZABETH THE BAMF

You see this? You see this right here? This is Queen Elizabeth I. She was pretty much the most badass monarch to grace England…right up there with Eleanor of Aquitane and Queen Vicky (Victoria and I were on a nickname basis.) I’m sure you all know her well from your high school history classes and various wikipedia adventures so I won’t get into it. But let’s just say if you ascend the throne only to become a patron of the arts and fearless leader you’d probably have some pretty sick style.

1. An Armada? Please Phillip, this is so childish.

3. Seriously? I’m Henry VIII’s daughter, you have no idea who you’re messing with.
