I think through out the years Rania choice in clothes and jewellery has improved ^__^ and i agree with cut1me she didn't look as beautiful as she is now at her wedding

a very pretty picture of Rania from June, 2001. She looks so radiant.

[hillary_nugent]

She is a very beautiful person despite what people might say about her ^___^

[Guess Who]

Does QR buy her jewlery or does she borrow most of the pieces?

[Humera]

Well she wears a lot of the smaller pieces quite regularly. So they're obviously hers.
As far as I know, she has only borrowed Queen Alia's tiara from Princess Haya on a few occassions. I've even seen her wear some of the formal necklaces more than once. She also wears fashion/costume jewellery often, which, im sure, is her own.

[Guess Who]

I know one of the earings she wore in paris were borrowed from Chamunet.I will try to get the picture.

Good question, im not really sure about that..I guess Q Rania ask's and they wont say "NO" cause she is advertising them/their stuff in a way..

[Humera]

A very pretty pair of earrings Rania wore to the wedding of Prince Felipe.

[Humera]

yeah those are pretty earrings...wonder why she didn't buy them.

Rania is pretty, wears beautiful clothes and jewellery...Good for her...
I can see that her collection of jewellery is much larger than Queen Noor's...
I love Rania's collection...she has a nice taste indeed...

Question: Do they audit the spending of the royal family in Jordan? Is there any system implemented and functional over there to know what they really get, how they get and how they spend???

[Josefine]

this thread is about jewlery if you want to talk about their fortune do so in the Jordan forum

[Moon]

Thank you Josephine...I thought we need money and fortune to buy jewellery and beautiful accessories...Since i like Rania's collection, the next obvious question to me is how much is spent and all the ethical implications of having such a nice expensive collection in a poor country...
i wanted to have the full picture and not to stay superficial...but since you wanted it this way, let be it....you are the boss anyway....
Good for you..enjoy!

Dear Josefine,

I'm not sure if this falls under the posting guidelines so am leaving it upto you. I've read a few articles re: most royals that many of the finer jewelers in the world will often--in addition to loaning--give pieces of jewelry to royals for special occasions--ie, when Rania was made Queen. Has anyone else heard this? I know celebrities often benefit from this. We see them sporting gorgeous cartier, Harry Winston, etc., pieces and they were actually gifts from the jewelers themselves (for PR value or to secure the royal as a customer I'm sure). This would certainly help someone acquire lovely pieces w/o spending the dollars the average person would spend.......Lucky them!

She seems to prefer a chunkier style of watch for non-evening attire.....I will try to post photo of one. I am always fascinated by watches. Does anyone else have photos of QR's? I saw one posted but could not open image. Thank you.

What kind of stones are they?....interesting mix & match colour
