The June 2nd outfit looks good (and what a hat). I only don't like the shoes.

Queen Paola at the 54th Venice Biennale in Italy -day 2 of 2 (June 22, 2011):
http://www.newscom.com/nc/wmark/News...hotoshot581103 (full view)
http://www.newscom.com/nc/wmark/News...otosfive272445 (upper part)
Picture details (close-up)
A rather simple black and white combination -not very special in comparison to the day 1-outfit- but I like the slightly translucent fabric of Paola's skirt as well as her shoes with their zigzag opening. Hence, the queen's day 2-look is alright whereas her day 1-look inspires me since it kind of reflects Paola's fascinating personality i.m.o.: a soft, delicate grounding blending well with multiple vibrant, typical highlights  .

Same what she wore in Venice but much better without her plastic red necklace.

On July 15, 2011 Queen Paola attended the world premiere of the theatre play of Umberto Eco's novel "The Name of the Rose" in the ruins of the Abbey of Villers-la-Ville:

Not exactly an exciting looking outfit but suchlike dark suits do flatter the queen's silhouette and provide for a nice contrast with her blond hair meanwhile. Besides, the structured fabric of Paola's fasciated scarf is quite lovely i.m.o..

The queen looked simply stunning in her sapphire blue (wonderful colour for Paola) evening gown. It exhibited an excellent, unostentatious cut all the while preventing this dress from appearing too sober by means of a little train. Moreover, I loved the subtle black lace border around the gown's neckline: http://kungligamodebloggen.svenskdam...al_6154812.jpg If Paola only hadn't worn a bolero jacket! I would've been delighted to see the entire upper part of her gown...

I think the Queen looks very elegant in the first two photos, is one of the dresses she wore on a visit to Germany. Lovely :)

The first outfit is very nice. I don't like the dress for the second outfit and the hat doesn't look nice with it.

Fabienne Delvigne said during the wedding of Prince Albert that big hats are back again.
Queen Paola had problems when she looked the airplanes.
Her outfit was very nice , nicer than on the pictures everybody liked it .

Yes, she does. I definitely prefer this version with a dark stole instead of that corresponding polka-dotted jacket which Queen Paola had worn back then in Germany. The dress' structured fabric looks especially appealing at close range i.m.o. http://www.newscom.com/nc/wmark/News...baphotos803301. I also like its ribbon(?) and the diagonal parting of the skirt: http://www.ppe-agency.com/500px/Jul2011/PPE11072078.jpg (cf. above).
Paola's chic, expressive Te Deum outfit -being kind of familiar- suits her nature, I would say: http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...ml#post1289839

It would have looked good without the jacket.
