The family also looks lovely here as Mathilde’s and Phillipe attended Elisabeth’s graduation from her masters course at Harvard

omg that navy evening dress is just fabulous - the whole look is wonderful. I love her graduation dress too.

I was in a second hand shop yesterday and almost bought a book about tiaras! I thought of this lovely thread. This one

It inspired me to order this book from the library. https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/tiaras---a-history-of-splendour_geoffrey-c-munn/327610/item/54592042/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=shopping_new_condition_books_high_14637440387&utm_adgroup=&utm_term=&utm_content=593819619485&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=14637440387&gbraid=0AAAAADwY45i6VMj__VxtBhxaMpKl61QE6&gclid=Cj0KCQjwz9_QBhD_ARIsADnSCfCLwtIAoeJO2he8CE1-F8HtFI5wGMSo9w5JoNOTi4O83Pij1GOfc8saAgWSEALw_wcB#idiq=54592042&edition=65623438

sorry for massive links.

Mathilde looking fabulous in the navy and the gorgeous lemon dress.

Love this summery dress on Letizia and what a gun show! https://www.newmyroyals.com/2026/05/queen-letizia-attends-opening-of-85th.html

Lovely dress - I like the pattern and the style. Leti never misses an arm day!

What a fab frock on Leti! Gorgeous colour and really suits her form. I don’t mind an espadrille, but I have to say I’m not sure about the ties around her legs 🤔😆

Maireas · 29/05/2026 20:31

I don't mind espadrilles, I know they're divisive on here! They remind me of warm summer evenings 🌞

Very summery! I'm looking forward to several months of lovely skirts and dresses like this! I like the print, despite the blue theme, but I'm not keen on the neckline and I abominate wedge-heeled espadrilles.

For anyone else who read Astrid Lindgren's books as a child, CP Victoria was presenting the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award on Monday in a rather beautiful floral skirt. This year's award went to writer and illustrator Jon Klassen.

Weren't we saying how good Charlene is looking lately?
A lovely, loose structured Armani trouser suit.
Love her hair and makeup.

love the baby blue colour

This Jenny Packham might be one of Mathilde's all-time best gowns. Her hair looks good in an updo too.

That dress is fabulous on Mathilde

I love the floral skirt that CPV wore for the Astrid Lindgren awards

She even had "Pippi Longstocking" earrings

It’s a great dress for a formal Mother of the bride or groom dress, as mine aren’t even engaged yet and I’ve no idea of price I don’t need to think about it, but it’s right up my street!

That's a gorgeous photo of mum and twins, thank she's in a white sweater.
Agree on the striped white trouser suit - too loose, a bit crumpled and the shoes look strange with the suit.

Anyone know how I can post an image from Instagram on here? There’s a fab montage that I want to share but can’t work out how to do it without sharing my details

The way I do it is with screenshots

Yes I took the screen shot but can’t work out how to edit my details out?

I really disliked and still do, Diana’s hairstyle in that photo of her @Sidebeforeselfposted.

I don't know why people use AI on these photos. The one of Kate has had some weird filter applied.

I guess it’s just a fancy photoshop when people think they are improving an image? I mean Kate did it once 🤭
