Royal Style: Trooping and Tennis, here we come!

Royal Style mavens, join us!

The queen not only does big hats, she goes big on the jewels too! That’s the culinardV. Close up (not from today) below. It’s beautiful 💎

Oops, forgot Zara pic.

@Chesticles yes it's such a beautiful piece! I can't remember if it's one of 'Granny's chips'? Imagine being able to say that. 😁

Stunning

I love the brooch. The Queen really is good at giving them all an outing.

Sophie’s dress is gorgeous.

What a shame, I'll stick to vintage jewellery.

OH my stars, it's exquisite 💖

Oh, I don’t like Zara’s. Looks a bit crimplene-y.

Leticia shoes. I'm wearing a pair with a double strap today. They do give extra support and with my back issues I need stability. Roll on the consultant appointment.

I kind of like Leti’s shoes but think they’d look better with a proper back, not a slingback.

I really like Anne’s hat. It’s a bit random with the rest of the outfit, but it really suits her and that is Anne for you 😆

Agreed but it's so hot there. I'd have worn espadrille type fabric which I am today in cream not black.

Look what I found. A dupe of the most expensive brooch in the world 💖

I can report back from the Cartier exhibition. Went today and it is FAB-U-LOUS!! The diamonds are stunning. Several cases of tiaras, Princess Graces engagement ring… I was in heaven.

Hmmm

Zara - too much lace makes it look like a catalogue dress

Camilla - love the hat - she always has such great hats

Fergie - a bit stuck in the 80s and a bit dark for a summer event

Anne - lovely

Beatrice - what was she thinking? She has worn some nice stuff recently but this is a miss - full gingham "homage to school summer dress" is tough to wear out of your teens.

Peter Philips girlfriend looks not dissimilar to his previous girlfriend.
Her outfit was gorgeous.
Does she still work as an NHS nurse I wonder ?

I think Camilla’s outfit has way too much material in the skirt. But her hat is great

Good recommendation! Sounds fabulous 😍

I've always adored that ring

I like the story of Grace's two engagement rings - the first one was rather modest; an eternity ring from Cartier.

Then she went back to Hollywood and Rainier evidently realised that the original ring was nowhere near impressive enough for her circle. So he got her some proper bling!

(Or so the story goes, or something like that anyway)

💍 💎 ✨💍💎✨💍💎✨💍💎

She wore it in her last movie I think. I remember the story.

Zara thats a miss I'm afraid.

Now here's gingham that has worked.

Yes something like that. They needed her to wear a suitable rock for a film role, and the Prince obliged.

To catch a thief?

High Society. I realised I haven't seen that in absolutely years!

I love High Society! Here’s the ring in action…
