Royal Style and Beauty: Open the vaults, alert the nation, get out bling for the Coronation!

[Maireas]

Well, we're in the run up to C day, now. Thanks to @chesterelly for the thread title suggestion 😊

Let's hope our fun, intestinal and friendly thread continues to entertain, inform and amuse!
Thank you to all the regular posters, and our occasional friends who dip in.

intestinal??! Whaaaat? Sorry, interesting! 😲

Morning @Maireas and thanks for the new thread.

Morning, @MotherofPearl . I always look forward to your contributions.

Thank you for the new thread.

@RockaLock - morning!

Morning! Ready for Easter service looks and the coronation!

I love the invite so pretty and fresh looking.

👋🏻

Waves to friends 👋
You're right, @hopeishere - it is fresh and pretty looking, very spring like.
I'd forgotten about the Easter service! Good reminder. Also, Maundy Thursday is tomorrow, and the doling out of purses.

Morning @Maireas and thank you!

DH has just mentioned that he will be out on the day of the coronation doing one of those famous MN 'hobbies'.

Therefore I can watch in peace. Result!

Thanks for the new thread. One month one day to go!

I see the palace have finally bitten the bullet and given Queen Camilla her full title, not Consort.
Guess the coronation was the obvious time.

George as a page boy is lovely. Hope he is looking forward to it and not overwhelmed.
He always looks a but uncomfortable at official events.

Also one day it will be him in the crown

Result, @ChicoryDip ! 👍
Not long to go, @gingercat02 - I think George will be nearly 10, probably a good idea to get him involved. Sweet that Camilla's grandchildren are involved, too.

I feel sorry for George. He will know all this is coming his way, but only when and because his grandfather and father have both died.

Yes, @SqueakyDinosaur , but we all learn that previous generations will not last forever. I think it's right to get him involved.

That is a heavy thought. I hope it's a long time before George has to be king.
Does Charles do the Maundy thing despite not being crowned?

Hello!

I'm just here for the clothes and no strong feelings about royals, so this thread looks great for me (not sure about the intestinal chat though...😉)

Good morning!
Thanks, Maireas! 💐
Intestinal! Hope we’re sticking to pleasant things on here 😂.
I love the pretty invitations, very spring like. I do agree that we need a collective invitation for all our unfailing services to Royal Style⭐️.

Morning, @WhatFreshHeckle 😊
Mostly we're about the style and bling though we do veer off. Rarely into intestinal matters, you'll be glad to hear ☺️

Morning, @gluenotsoup - definitely. Plus a free rummage in the vaults I think.

Thank you for the new thread @Maireas

The green Man on the invitation has an interesting history if I remember rightly. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Man

It predates Christianity and is found across the world.

Morning, @LadyEloise1 ! @justasking111 , thanks for that. The Green Man or Greene King is found throughput history.

Morning.
I love the design of the invitation. The intertwined CC in gold at the top with a little wren sitting in it is a lovely detail.

Good morning. I am here for dresses, jewellery and pagentry! Not so much for intestinal things, though.

Thanks for the reminder about Easter day service. Lovely invitation card, even if I haven't got one.
