belles lettres

There's something romantic about a handwritten letter ... especially if you're using an antique pen and ink. Somehow I can't imagine Mr. Darcy's letter to Elizabeth Bennett having the same effect if it was texted or emailed. :)

  1. Jane Austen must be rolling in her grave at the very idea of Mr. Darcy or Elizabeth Bennett having a blackberry!!!! :0

  5. Oh, I agree!! Emails are quick and efficient, but I love to feel the paper in my hands! It is more romantic for sure! It is so much more relaxing to take the time to hand write something ... we just miss out on so much with this fast paced world we live in!
