That is a lovely brooch and I must say that the queen very lovely and I liked her hat too. In fact, the Queen and the two princesses did very well with hats this year. That's something one can't say too often when it comes to the Bernadottes and hats. A winning Hats policy by the Bernadottes would be most excellent!Tartucat said:Queen Silvia was wearing very beautiful brooch with 4 pearls

Is that a special event? I as a Swede have never heard of it...Wow! It's that time already. I was just wondering what happens at the close of Parliament? (Im not even sure of when that is. When does it close?)
How strange: why doesn't Victoria wear a hat while Madeleine and Silvia wear one?
I like this family. The Queen as usual is very simple and elegant as well as classy. I think out of all the Queens, she is the best. She never forgets any little detail, and is always dressed to the nines whatever the event. She is not old nor frumpy. The epitome of what a Queen should be.
She looks wonderful today as well as the rest of the family.
No Princess Lilian? I thought when they said the whole RF would be there they meant Lilian too.
- The King then goes on to talk about how important it is that Sweden helps with this, and how international cooperation is important if one should reach such goals. He also talked about how he's met heads of state on state visits and these things have been on the agenda.Today we open the council of the realm (Parliament) here in Stockholm. At the same time, the United Nation's General Assembly in New York opens. There is therefore a special occasion to bring to mind those eight millennium goals that the UN agreed on in year 2000, to be finished by year 2015.
One of the goals is to halve the poverty in the world, another clean water and basic education for all, and stop the spreading of HIV/AIDS
I just wonder, what is Madeleine thinking here?
