More details about Elizabeth Brydges life a Lady in Waiting

-She was daughter to the Giles Brydges a Third baron Chandos and they were very wealth, so she was born into it.

-Became the maid of honor to the Queen, very young,as she had known her for a long time.

-Also a Gentlewoman of the bed chamber, so she saw all the goings on in Elizabeth's bedroom.

- She wasn't like anyone in that era, wanted to rebel, be different.

-Had a romance with Robert Devereux, the Earl Of Essex, who was the queen's favourite, which she didn't like at all.

-Was thrown out of somewhere, because she didn't have admission to be there.

I have found a portrait of her, that shows what she looked like, but i have taken a more contemporary looked to it, as i want her to be different than what she looked in the Elizabethan era.

The colours i have really thought about was green for showing wealth, which she liked a lot, as she had it. The makeup would be bold, to show that, than when after the queen died, which i have made a design for, as i was not sure what i was going to look at.
