    The Princess of Wales's Eveningwear Part 1: September 2022 -

    I so agree with you. I know I mostly like Tiaras wore with updos but this looked exquisite with her "unfussy" hair style pulled back to concentrate on her outfit. To be truthful, I get so tired of some women always wearing the same hair style. I like change and new looks at times, even on...

    The Duchess of Sussex's Eveningwear Part 2: September 2019 - November 2023

    I so agree with you. No matter what Meghan or Catherine wear these days, they are always compared to something that Diana wore decades ago. Same color, same style, or same jewelry. So boring. I often think that those tabloid writers are just so lazy to write proper articles on meaningful...

    The Duke and Duchess of Kent News and Events 2: Sep 2022 -

    I have always admired the Duke of Kent and his beautiful wife for their devotion to the Queen. He and his Katharine, prior to her wish to limit public life, were always there quietly doing their duty to the crown and country.

    Queen Elizabeth (1926-2022) and the Duke of Edinburgh (1921-2021)

    What you say is probably normal for most families, but the Queen was still running the show. She still, to the very end, was the head of the Firm and they all respected that. If she didn't want people around her fussing, you would NOT be there as she wanted to rest and concentrate on what she...

    Queen Camilla Jewels 1: September 2022 - February 2024

    I really like this tiara. It suits the Queen's hairstyle. My greatest wish is that she wears a different tiara and jewelry often. There are so many pieces that are just tucked away under lock-and-key for many years that she can bring out and we can all drool over and critique. I remember a...

    The Duchess of Gloucester Jewellery

    Yes, I do too. I also think this quiet, lovely couple were such a devoted and loyal couple that the late Queen Elizabeth II could always rely upon them. So happy to see them here as, to me, they have always been a shining example of class and decorum in their public roles as royals.

    Queen Máxima's Daytime Fashion Part 19: June 2022 - March 2023

    I certainly agree. This outfit does absolutely nothing kind to the Queen. She has many really flattering outfits and I wish she would continue to wear them. Does the Queen have a "dresser" on payroll? Maybe a new one should be looked into fast. JMO

    The Princess of Wales's Eveningwear Part 1: September 2022 -

    I absolutely agree. I also believe that the complete outfit worn by Princess of Wales was talked about with the Queen. Queen Elizabeth II was well known for "suggesting" the jewelry and colors worn by family to huge events. I am not saying that the new Queen will make such demands as it is...

    The Princess of Wales's Daytime Fashion Part 1: September 2022 - March 2023

    Yes, that coat is a winner. Also goes back to the 1950s and 60s with extreme fitting through body and then some also A-lined out slightly to below knees. Very feminine and upscale. This type of coat always had slight tucking above the waist at some point to take away the very plain look...

    The Princess of Wales's Eveningwear Part 1: September 2022 -

    I guess I am in the minority, but I like this look on The Princess of Wales at this occasion. I also liked her choice of jewelry.

    The Princess of Wales's Daytime Fashion Part 1: September 2022 - March 2023

    I love this neutral monochrome look. Always a classic. The Princess looks neat and clean and well-tailored. Clothes fit properly as usual on her. Nice to see. JMO

    Queen Letizia's Daytime Fashion Part 19: September 2022 - June 2023

    With that small smile in most pictures, I wonder if she lost some type of bet, and this was her "payment"! Actually, nothing else even makes sense. Plus, what type of establishment even sells this! The print fine as we have all seen much worse, but a hole at the knee, absolutely bizarre...

    Crown Princess Mary's Eveningwear Part 20: November 2021 - January 2024

    I certainly agree. Perfect in all ways for this occasion. Bravo to her.

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    I must admit that I was surprised that the usual quiet Queen would even issue a statement clarifying her ruling. But I do not see it as an apology but more like a mother saying to her children "sorry you have a problem with these new rules but my house, my rules. You will just have to learn to...

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    It seems to me that if Joachim and family would have not whined in public about the Queen's changes, the media would not have caused this huge uproar and just went along with the law changes. They are all still quite privileged members of the royal family. Will they all start writing books now...

    "Courtiers, The Hidden Power Behind The Crown" by Valentine Low (2022)

    You made me think about all this of years ago, and I tend to agree with you. I don't believe they tried to stop him from doing what he wanted at that time. Shame things went upside down later. Harry could have accomplished much if things developed differently. Shame his head was turned.

    Queen Letizia's Daytime Fashion Part 19: September 2022 - June 2023

    Yes, I really like those lower heeled shoes for non-formal wear, and these are still a nice upscale look. The Queen's entire outfit is perfect for the occasion, and I personally would love to have that blouse. She seems to always get the professional type look perfectly. JMO

    New Titles for Queen Margrethe's Descendants: 2008 & 2022, 2024

    As an American, the first thought that came to my mind was "will this title change affect everyone and their way of life?" It won't the older model grandsons. They will still have lucrative jobs and still be grandchildren of a Queen. None of them seem to be "working" for the Queen but are...

    Titles and Styles of the Sussex Family 1

    Actually, it was the extreme wish of the Late Duke of Edinburgh that his youngest son Edward be given his title on his death. But it is still given only at the wish of the now King. If the Queen had wanted it to be given immediately, she had many months to accomplish or push for it immediate...

    The Duchess of Sussex's Daytime Fashion Part 6: May 2022 - November 2023

    I agree. She looked fine, in fact better than I can ever remember and outfit fit nicely. As far as zipper, I didn't scrutinize every detail on anyone so never noticed that small pull. At least she tried to blend in with the family decorum so for that reason I appreciate the effort. I am sure...

    The Princess of Wales's Daytime Fashion Part 1: September 2022 - March 2023

    Style perfect for this occasion plus keeping with the sombre decorum of this week. Like the Mother of Pearl buttons also. Throw back to 1940/50 after war time. She looks neat and proper. JMO

    General News for the Cambridge Family Part 3: March 2017-September 2022

    I believe that the Queen and Prince Charles might have had quite a good deal of prodding in having them move to this cottage. Nothing is accomplished without the idea and approval of Her Majesty. Plus, I think they will be moving into Windsor once Charles is King which is so close, and the...

    Queen Máxima's Daytime Fashion Part 19: June 2022 - March 2023

    I absolutely agree. Most silly fascinators look like flying saucers stuck to their foreheads with crazy flowers or feathers growing on top. Give me a Jackie Kennedy Pill Box sitting at rear of head or proper brimmed hat any day. Don't actually mind sunglasses as now that I have had cataract...

    Princess Beatrix's Fashion and Style Part 1: April 2013 - November 2023

    As usual, pure class. I always admire this strong woman.
