    The Queen: Would She Consider Abdication or Retirement?

    Very well said, MARG, and I totally agree in all that you've stated.

    Queen Elizabeth II's Fashion and Style Part 5: July 2012 - February 2015

    Isn't the pearl necklace she always wears one that George VI gave her? I thought I read that somewhere.

    Princess Madeleine's Fashion & Style, Part 5: May 2013 - February 2015

    A lovely outfit, but I think if the dress length hit the knee it would have looked better.

    Queen Elizabeth II - Brooches 2: Nov 2009-Dec 2015

    Thanks for the thumbnail, Warren. The brooch is huge; those diamonds, especially the central one, are jaw-dropping.

    Queen Elizabeth II: Tiaras, Necklaces etc 2: Nov 2007-Dec 2015

    I will never tire seeing the GGBI tiara, and HM surely is never tired of wearing it! :biggrin:

    The Duchess of Cambridge's Daytime Fashion Part 14: May 2014 - July 2014

    I see she's wearing the "housedress" again with those deep flap pockets; I still dislike it although I do like that color blue. I don't care for the hat/fascinator.

    Queen Elizabeth II's Fashion and Style Part 5: July 2012 - February 2015

    Very classic and elegant outfits; I especially like the black and white and the sublime lime green.

    How adorable! Sugar looks like a dog after Princess Isabelle of Denmark's heart since she also likes tutus. :biggrin:

    Prince Harry: Relationship Rumours and Musings 2013-2014

    Just popped in to see if Harry was engaged yet or found another lady fair. No? Catch y'all later, then! :biggrin:

    Crown Princess Mary's Eveningwear Part 13: January 2014 - June 2014

    I would like that dress more if it weren't for the fussy, bulky material in front. But I thought her hairdo was very attractive.

    Introduction

    Hello and welcome to the forums. I hope you enjoy your time here. Your cat is beautiful; is she a Siamese? Her bed is certainly fit for a queen, but does she sleep in it? My own ignore their beds and like to snuggle with me, as per usual cat behavior.

    The Duchess of Cornwall's Fashion & Style Part 6: July 2013 - June 2014

    What a beautiful outfit; such large flamboyant hats really suit Camilla. I really like the intricate knot decoration on the hatband.

    Queen Elizabeth II - Brooches 2: Nov 2009-Dec 2015

    I don't think I've ever seen that Turkish waterfall brooch; it's just phenomenal! HM is like an assembly line with all these magnificent brooches on display, one after the other.

    Queen Elizabeth II's Fashion and Style Part 5: July 2012 - February 2015

    Perfect sentiment; I so agree with you. She is irreplaceable and such a treasure.

    Princess Letizia's Daytime Fashion Part 29: November 2013 - June 2014

    Don't forget the pink plastic flamingos in that Palm Beach setting! I like the outfit as well along with the bright coral jacket; very flamboyant.

    Duchess of Cornwall Jewellery 7: September 2011- December 2015

    All hail to the Mighty Bouch! Camilla looks splendid in it.

    Queen Máxima's Eveningwear Part 2: April 2014 - March 2015

    It looks like the zipper was sewn on the exterior of the fabric rather than underneath. That puzzles me even more; I can't believe it could have been intentional and why that wasn't corrected. Maybe it was a hastily done repair/adjustment, although I can't believe a queen's seamstress or...

    General News about Madeleine, Chris, and Leonore, Part 1: April 2014 - June 2015

    I love that they're both sporting NY Yankees baseball caps!

    Queen Máxima's Eveningwear Part 2: April 2014 - March 2015

    I only like the color, but I emphatically agree about that prominent puckered zipper and the oversized ruffle. The tight material also pulls across the slope of her butt as well. But the jewels and tiara-do are just magnificent.

    Richard III (1452-1485): Discovery of Remains and Reburial

    It seems the image of Richard as a hunchback is so ingrained in lore, as well as in Shakespeare's play, that the hard facts can't refute this misinformation. The Tudors had great PR still holding fast throughout the ages; never let the truth get in the way of a good story!

    Princess Charlene and Prince Albert Expect Twins in 2014

    So true; he's planted the seed and it's too late to backpedal! People will now have the image of twins in their brains until Charlene delivers.

    Letizia, Princess of Asturias Jewellery 2: August 2007-June 2014

    I have a feeling that Letizia will continue with her minimalist style as queen as far as jewels are concerned, but hopefully she will ramp it up for state occasions and other events. I wonder if we'll finally get to see the fleur-de-lys tiara.

    King Juan Carlos Announces Abdication: June 2, 2014

    Well, this news certainly elicited a gasp from me. As many have said, it was unexpected, and yet not. I suspect there is more reason than meets the eye for this decision, but whatever it is, I wish the new king and queen best of luck as well as the outgoing king and queen, and Spain as it goes...
