After more Googling, I realize that Diana was in Washington for a Red Cross Gala (remember the long red sparkly dress?) on June 17. She met with Hillary Clinton on June 18. So it looks like she was in New York later on the same day that she was in Washington, not the other way around.

That Valentino dress in the last pic is a classic.

A touching story.
The little girl in this photo was a 7 year old dying of AIDS.
Her dying wish was to meet a real Princess.
Diana held her on her lap for the whole performance.
Love the Valentino dress as well!

It is truly remarkable how a woman who has been gone for all these years can still attract such attention. I don't know what it is (was) about her, but I still am mesmerized by her photographs. Even though we know that she was a flawed person (aren't we all!) Diana had an "it" factor that really is difficult to explain. We are so bombarded with imagery now, but very few well-known people can hold a candle to her. Is it the good heart that she had? Is it what she represented at the time of her marriage (romance, fairy tales, etc.)? I honestly don't know, but I find the continued interest in her (mine included!) rather amazing.

This story made me tear up, like so many others that deal with this person's kindness.

That's the understatement of the year. Another one of her pieces that I'm not a fan of. The colors remind me of Halloween.

I think this dress was one of Diana's rare misses, but she still looked great!
2nd pic-
Attending opening night of English National Ballet's World Tour on her first solo tour to the USA, New York City , 1989. Awesome pic!

The skirt had a bustle as well. A shiny orange jacket. A black lace skirt with a bustle. And a bow-tie. Yes, we're definitely getting into Hallowe'en territory here, even if the outfit wasn't in black and orange.

She broke her ankle while skiing. I think that this ended her job helping with a ballet class, before she went to work at the kindergarten.

It looks like they've found a map for buried treasure.
