Blessed Be The Royal Pants, but We Shall Inherit the Tiaras!

Royal style fans, sign in here!
More wonderful witticisms, observations and pictures !

I'll let you fight over the Fabergé eggs. Too fussy for me

Me too @StCharlotte - while they are fighting over the eggs, nobody's guarding the earrings!

After a few days of evening glamour, CPV is back at the day job. The plum dress is good on her (though the nude shoes a bit too close to her skin tone), the suit is very much her "uniform", and the less said about the sister wife outfit the better!

Letizia is also suited and booted but I'm not sure why she left her coat draped over her shoulders instead of leaving it the cloakroom.

I’m heading to the V&A today, to see the jewellery section as have a couple of hours free without children! Let me know if you need anything ;-).

I love the plum dress, it’s a good fit , flattering length and a favourite colour of mine. I agree about the nude shoes though, a gunmetal shade would have looked better. Not keen on Leti keeping her coat over her shoulders, I know it’s supposed to look chic but to me it looks a bit contrived and uncomfortable 🤷🏻‍♀️

sister wife outfit

That navy suit in the middle image has air hostess vibes imo.

The plum dress is great on her, though I agree about the shoes.

The coat over shoulders thing is generally quite annoying. Always looks like the coat is about to slip off. Either wear your coat, or take it off royal ladies! Not like they don't have staff to deal with stuff like coats.

Greetings @Pallisers

CPM looks great here I think. The wrap top really suits her, as do those trousers.

Sophie is so smiley and engaged I feel bad criticising her clothes, but I really dislike the tan turtleneck and the coat. Looks warm though.

@StCharlotte

There's Primark polyester and there's Ralph Lauren polyester. Not all polyester is born equal.

Same for faux leather. Ralph's is excellent, and it makes some of the RL handbags very budget-friendly.

Out for lunch with DH today, one of these places with all sorts of ephemera and old photos and pictures, spotted stuffed animals, a carousel horse, a lacrosse stick among many many things. We were shown to a table in what I immediately called Royal corner, lots of pictures of royal ladies from Victoria onwards with tiaras. I'm not sure what DH made of my identifying the tiaras and scanning for any I hadn't seen before.

@KillingMeDeftly

I'm sure she's a great kid but not sure I'd call her stunning.

Daisy probably designed the costumes for that ballet!

Horses for courses, but I certainly didn’t’t look like this as a 15 year old, and nor did most of my friends

Yes, Daisy did design the costumes. The scenery too!

@chesterelly1
Sounds like a great place to lunch & hope the food was as good as all the wonderful bits & bobs on display.
And I'm sure before long that you will have your DH well trained in identifying the tiara within 50 paces

I think Isabella really looks like Daisy of Connaught (mainly the eyes).
Daisy being HRH Princess Margaret of Connaught (the grand daughter of Queen. Victoria) who on marriage became Crown Princess of Sweden & also happens to be Isabella's Great Great Grandmother.

@Serenster Isabella has amazing bone structure & I can see what you mean/the potential especially if you were to do the whole make up, camera, lights, model thing etc.

Talking of Connaught has anyone bagged The Connaught Tiara? I fancy it as my NYE tiara @Maireas

'tis yours, my friend
TracyBeakerSoYeah - Connaught tiara ✔️

Oops photos would help
Daisy of Connaught

Connaught Tiara when I let Princess Madeleine borrow it 😂

Maireas I think I should not be allowed any more tiaras as unfortunately I've lost count of how many 'I have' 🤣

And until we get our own real Faberge Eggs we can make a pretend one

Connaught Tiara breaks down into gorgeous earrings too. Value for money

You are an excellent ambassador!

important clerical request
I have the Norwegian Emerald Parure on the spreadsheet, but am not sure who claimed it - is it you, @GrouchyKiwi? I think we know how you feel about certain things Norwegian....

It was me!

Very excited to be going to Kensington Palace this morning for the dresses exhibition! If Kate invites me in for a cup of tea and some of my esteemed fashion advice, I’ll be sure to report back! 😂

@StartupRepair

It was me!

Thank you!! ✔️
