If you look this title up in the dictionary you will not find any results, but by appellation a Northern Belle is a young woman who cultivates beauty of character and substance rather than beauty of external features.
Southern Belles were expected to be
gentile, beautiful, sophisticated - but they were missing a few key

knowledge?
Here lies the perfect recipe for a a Northern Belle: grace
and gentility carefully blended with vivacity, passion, and acuity of
thought.
