What a wonderfull day. Isnt the national holiday a recent invention or at least this huge celebration for it. I simply adore Princess Lilian. A women of her age who can still look lovely and elegant. She has aged beautifully. She is a very cute old lady. She is also very strong.

Does anytbody else in Sweden still dress in national costume? It looks nice on the Queen and the Crownprincess, it even took my attention away from Carl-Phillip (which is a hard thing to do).

Thank you all for sharing the pictures of Sweden's National Day!

I believe that Queen Sylvia is the only person in the world who can use that headpiece over the years without looking bad.

Great pictures of CP Victoria, too, I just wish she tried different things with her hair.

Regards,

I'm worried about Victoria's ponytail. Last year we had the glasses and the ponytail but we beat Victoria on the glasses . But she just refuses to let go of the ponytail!....

Yes, maybe instead of just one ponytail she could wear two ... one on each side.

Thanks, purple_platinum! It is indeed a lovely shot.

I like her in the national costume, too. Especially the one with Princess Lilian.

The crown princess looks beautiful and happy.

Thank you ursulajohanna for provideing the link to see pictures from the Crownprincess visit to Sundsvall, it looked as if she made quite an impact on the people there - as she usually do. She looked good but i don´t like the skirt, it looks as if it is several sizes to big for her.

Madeleine is supposed to come back sometime during June but I don't know if it's as soon as next week. Hopefully she will be back since she is a member of the SRF and National Day is a pretty big event for them. Also, Madeleine should take as many opportunities doing official duties now if she's serious about going back to NYC after the summer.

Is she? I saw an article about it in Aftonbladet, but I don't read Swedish, so I was trying to figure out if thats what it said. What is she planning to do? Same thing? Madeleine has some privacy here, since most Americans don't know their royals, so she's probably enjoying not having an entourage of pap'zi following her to Starbucks every morning. I know Victoria enjoyed being a "regular girl" here.
