These leggings are filled with personality. Elizabeth's personality, to be exact. A master of propaganda, Elizabeth's portraits are filled with imagery and symbolism, showing her as a strong monarch, the Virgin Queen who was married to her country, and defeated the Spanish Armada. Interestingly, Elizabeth actually had approved sketches that would go out to artists who wanted to paint her portrait, and you could only paint from those sketches. It meant she was completely in control of the image she portrayed.

Now, with that said, these leggings are awesome! Imagine the conversations that will spring up when you go out in these leggings! Other Elizabeth enthusiasts will drool. It'll be amazing. Okay, I can't promise that other people will drool. But I can say that they are awesome.
Also, remember everything you buy is a Purchase with a Purpose, as I split 10% of profits between the local historical society in my hometown of Lancaster, PA, and funding microloans to women refugee entrepreneurs through Kiva.
