and some more...
Paola has a sober but very elegant style that flatters her IMO.

As his queen consort you'd think King Albert would buy his wife a tiara or 2 as a present. Or try and track down the jewels that were sold and put a foundation on them so that they don't leave Belgium.

I think that HM queen Paola would look great with a fringe tiara.

It's quite ridiculous that the wife of a reigning monarch has so little Jewels to speak of. Besides the 9 province tiara, only one other, no fabulous diamonds. The Belgian RF should fork out a bob or two and start creating a collection for the future Quuens!

How did this bandeau come into the possession of Queen Paola? Was it a gift to her from HM The Queen of England?

I must say that as a Queen she has 2 tiaras and that is definitely too few.Other queens seem to have a lot more like Queen Elizabeth,Queen Siliva or even Queen Beatrix.No wonder Princess Mathilde only have 1 tiara.It's pathetic.

Wow, Queen Paola was an amazingly beautiful woman. She looks fine now, but you would never suspect how beautiful she was in her youth.
