Royal Style: More Summer Bling please

[Maireas]

That caught me by surprise! We had a flurry!
New thread.

Camilla had a brooch on her hat. I love the fact she is wearing a lot of big jewels.

I noticed Brigitte wore two brooches/clips on the big collar at Trooping the Colour. I may not have liked the ruffle but full marks for the bling.

Sorry duplicate post.

Definitely. She seems to have inherited some beautiful pieces from Princess Alice.

Those were 2 1920s/30s diamond clips. I think they were cut down from a bigger piece, like a tiara. TLQ had similar, possibly with aquamarines?

That is some heart shaped diamond on Camilla. Is it a brooch or necklace ?
Zara looks great. Love the pink.
Those heels- I’m in awe that she can walk in them.
I’m not keen on Anne’s hat as the colour washes her out - or perhaps she doesn’t bother with make up ?
Harriet looks lovely and Peter so loved up.
Anne’s children are both very good looking.
Goodness it wasn’t that long ago iirc that Lindsay Wallace was at Ascot with Peter.
I wonder how she feels - “lucky escape” or “oh that could have been me.”

Another day, another glamorous event in Monaco! But I don't think gold suits Charlene - silver would've been better on her. The dress itself is a bit Star Trek. <a class="break-all" href="https://www.google.com/sorry/index?continue=www.newmyroyals.com/2026/06/prince-albert-and-princess-charlene-present.html%3Fm%3D1&q=EgQSq6Q_GLOrydEGIi0GvvpxysgSVAE7zneoCmM4r7xmKU7xaihw0TfBpANyahNUJaNWD864xCozj4syAnJSWgFD" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.newmyroyals.com/2026/06/prince-albert-and-princess-charlene-present.html

No idea what happened with that link there!

MN problem, so go to the NMR homepage if you want to see the photos!

Charlene looks beautiful, I really like her hair and makeup. Is that a Jenny Packham dress? It's gorgeous, but maybe not quite the right fit or colour for Char. Touch of the Zara P - perhaps a bit too much and too high a neck?

That is some heart shaped diamond on Camilla. Is it a brooch or necklace ?

A brooch - though somewhat unconventionally placed by Camilla yesterday! She normally wears it on a shoulder.

Never mind Ascot - Queen Letizia wore the most gorgeous dress to something-or-other. I would love to have it if she's ever having a clearout...

I just saw that and it's beautiful, I love the gold shoes too.

Leti's dress is a repeat, from a few years ago now, I think. I love it, very glamorous. Love her shoes and how she's navigating the low heeled look, which was quite a change for her.

Dries Van Noten seems to be a popular designer with European royals.

That is stunning. Chance of it fitting me = 0.

It's one of the Cullinan diamonds. IIRC the stone can also be dismounted and has been used in one of the crowns, too.

Camilla also pinned a diamond brooch to the brim of her hat too. That’s a very Queen Mary trick!

That's a fabulous photograph @Serenster 👏

His horse came last!
It was predicted to win! ☹️

According to the Mail (I know, I know...) Mette-Marit has had a lung transplant. Fingers crossed, poor woman.

The palace announced it so it's not the Mail making up stuff!

I've just read that too and came to say the same. I hope she's doing well after the op.

The BBC are also carrying the story: www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1eyg37qyqjo

I hope it's gone well, and going well.

Yes, it's just been on Sky News too, hope she makes a smooth recovery. Not an easy week for her.

It’s a busy week - state visit time in the Netherlands with the Japanese Emperor and Empress visiting (the couples are friends too, apparently). So, tiaras I guess, tonight?
