Has anyone seen pictures of the Diplomatic from other agencies yet?Cause i had found lots but none of the agencies have pics yet just Empics has but they are too small, and cause the Duchess of Cornwall was there with The Prince of Wales as well and she wore a new dress, and i think there was something on her head but they are too small so i could not see, i think its another new Tiara for the Duchess as well, im not sure...

Thanks Corazon for her pics from EMPICS:)
The Queen was wearing an old dress, but its great to see Her Majesty wears that tiaras again, i dont know its anme but i think she had not worn it for so long, its great Her Majesty looks really regal:) Its good to see the Duchess wearing a new Tiara and a new dress but its quite small one not really suits with her i reckon.And i think the Earl and Countess of Wessex were there as well, cause if u look at the last picture,u can see the Earl of Wessex in the back of the Duchess and its quite like the Countess in the back of The Prince of Wales.

The Queen looks very nice. I love that dress; I thinks it suits her well. And she's wearing that wonderful necklace, which is perfect with the tiara. :)
