Royal Style: Diamonds are a Queen's best friend..

[Maireas]

Evening all! Thanks to Tracy Beaker for the new title!
Roll on some bling and style, though it may be a while!

😂

Max has caught a tan. I wonder if like last year they've been yachting

She maybe using self tan as well as sun protection, like Letizia (or me, I love a tan!)

CPV in a blue gown

Ah! royal literal dressing at the Junior Water Prize 😆

I like it!

She's worn that several times for the water prize thingies :) It's also a green-washing H&M thing I think, recycled plastic bottles or something.

Obviously I realise that this isn’t the case, but I always think clothing made out of recycled plastic bottles sounds uncomfortable 😂

So do I, love it actually!

There's something very soothing about the pattern on CPV's dress.

It does, doesn't it - but it's surprisingly soft!

Max sporting interesting earrings on a visit to The Hague.

Those earrings are like a xylophone!
Max looks great in that vibrant yellow, she can really pull it off. Her hair is looking nice, too.

They make my lobes hurt just looking at them.

She must have very strong lobes.

Those are some earrings!

Max looking vibrant as ever - not a fan of those earrings, which look like stairs to her ears!😂

I have a soft toy made from recycled bottles and it's so so soft. No idea how they do that.

Back on kilts/trousers, I understand that if you are a Highlander then you might wear a kilt and if you are from the Lowlands (southern Scotland) you'd wear tartan trousers, known as trews.

Very happy to be corrected, but that's what I've been told.

I always think that tartan trews are a military thing, but I could be wrong. Either military or very posh. None of my lot would wear tartan trews, but they all own kilts and we are Edinburgh. Kilts are getting very expensive to buy though, but are definitely an investment. Weddings, any formal occasion, National football games, National rugby games.

The wonderful thing about kilts is that you can expand in them. It's yours for life. Middle aged spread and all 🤣

Bonus 😁!

Leonor joins the Spanish Navy today

.

She looks very smart! I think it's a good idea that she has training and experience in the armed forces. I'm guessing Air Force next?
