You might think you’re boujie, but you don’t know boujie until you know our girl Georgiana.
Born into a rich and happy family, Baby G spent her earlier years in the Spencer family home of Althorp.
If Althorp sounds familiar, it’s possible that you may have heard of it if you’ve studied the life of her great, great (however many times great) niece, Diana Spencer. Maybe you’ve heard of her…
But the posh doesn’t stop there. After marrying the most eligible bachelor in the country, the Lady G becomes the Duchess G and sets the London gossip columns on fire for years to come.
For a boujie lady, only a boujie cocktail would do. We pair this fashion icon with an equally sweet drink called the Darling Duchess which. It’s sweet and full of booze… just like the duchess!
This story has everything. Sex, drugs, gambling, politics, old-timey names for menstruation.
So, pour yourself a drink and get ready for the story of Georgiana Cavendish, the Duchess of Devonshire. PART 1!
Some great sources we found (I cannot recommend this book enough. IT was so extensive. We had to leave out A LOT of stuff there’s just so much information about her!)
