I’m sorry, I can’t tie it into fashion unless anyone has a comment on checked shirts and wellies but this made me smile.

Princess Anne found a couple of farmers fast asleep as she visited the Royal Highland Show on Friday. Busy week after all that Ascot action!

Oh my God
that is absolutely hilarious!

🤣 We are showing sheep this week but I didn’t go on Friday. Anne is the perfect royal for the show. Animals and horses galore. I’m sure she’s happiest in farmers gear.

Anne has been massively out and about as usual, as she also attended the Lincolnshire Show, which we went to. Didn't spot her unfortunately, but I love that she supports the countryside in this way.
Hope your sheep did well! I'm a horsey gel myself.

Here's Leti in a green linen Mango trouser suit. I like the colour. She's wearing the low heeled black patent slingbacks, which I don't think are a good match for this outfit. Good that she's finding low heeled stylish shoes.

Queen Letizia Steps Out in a New Mango Linen Pantsuit for Meeting at the Residencia de Estudiantes

Queen Letizia attends Residencia de Estudiantes (Student Residence) Board Meeting on 5 June 2025. Queen Letizia wore a Mango Linen Pant Suit in Forest Green.

Letizia is completely swamped by that suit - the trousers are too long and the shoulders too wide for her petite frame. I agree, nice textured fabric and colour though.

Meanwhile, tiaras in Norway for the French visit. King Harald is looking frail after his recent bout of ill-health (Sonja has also been ill but seems to look more healthy - not sure about the scarlet sash and purple dress combo, though). I like Mette-Marit’s elegant white dress, though it’s not a very evening-dress style. I love Princess Astrid’s ballet pumps with sparkly toes. Ingrid-Alexandra looks very elegant in a dress that could be va-va-voom, but she wears it very well.

Leti's hair and makeup are spot on. Nice green suit, but the trousers are too long and a little too baggy to have balanced the oversized blazer.

If the tiaras are out in Norway for the French, maybe that bodes well for tiaras when they come here 🤞🏻😆

eta nice to see Mme Macron with a different hairstyle

CurlewKate · 24/06/2025 11:21

Good Lord-is that Mme Macron? Love the dress but it does look a bit as if she’s been photoshopped in…..

No they are without shame. They were lapping up attention from show visitors. 🙄

There are some videos of the french/norwegian dinner on this link https://www.therealmyroyals.com/ the 3rd video of Mette-Marit's tiara shows how sparkly they are when in 'motion'

That's a Vivienne Westwood corset dress on Ingrid so definitely more va va voom than we're used to seeing! She looks great.

I wonder if Harald will be the next monarch to abdicate? He's looking very frail these days. But given the recent scandals around Marius maybe he'll leave it a bit longer.

We used to show a Highland pony who looked perfect until the judges appeared, then she would rest a hoof, droop her head, an ear and her lip, hold her breath and close her eyes…..

There is now a mini-series about Harald and Sonja's courtship on Amazon Prime but it isn't available in the UK yet.

Theirs is quite the love story and has all the necessary elements for drama - girl meets boy but he's a prince, king opposes their marriage, prince gives king ultimatum etc etc!

justasking111 · 24/06/2025 13:26

What happened to the Max Wax love story was that ever shown anywhere?

It looks as though Madame M is just about to swipe her husband round the head with her bag and he’s leaning away in anticipation. 😂

I always wonder did they live happily ever after.
I know the King of Sweden has a reputation as does the ex Spanish king.
King Harald and Sonja ?

KiIIingMeDeftly · 24/06/2025 17:14

I don't think there's ever been any hint of scandal about Harald and Sonja so it really does seem to be a happily ever after story.

Choux · 24/06/2025 20:43

Yes I think Harald has always been steadfast in his love for Sonja. I think their marriage being opposed by the then king made them vow to let their children marry for love no matter who they are. Which is how both their children have made somewhat unconventional royal marriages.

The Orange Family are giving the orange one a bed for the night whilst he's attending the NATO summit in The Hague

Loving Maxima's lime green jumpsuit, especially in the sea of black & navy suits.

She looks stunning. As usual, it might look too much on anyone else, but she looks fabulous!

KiIIingMeDeftly · 25/06/2025 07:06

She looks amazing and I love the expression on her face in the last two photos.

Max can always carry an outfit off that others simply couldn’t.
