I admire the workings of the monégasque court. They seem very effective and manage to organize a princely Household with just a fraction of the costs in other monarchies.

Although Caroline seems to be taken aback, doesn't lose her control. Stephanie's reaction is more spontaneous.

National Day 2016 - Monaco
All of Caroline's children are there today.
I think I also spotted Louis, Chris Levine and his son.

I wonder where are the twins?
Charlene is magnificent.
I like Caroline's and Beatrice's appearances very much.
I also like Alexandra and Charlotte (except her shoes).
Tatiana's outfit is the worst of all, I think. Sasha and India are very cute.

Although I do not like her on the human level, I must recognise that Beatrice is the best dressed of all those ladies. Shame that headband makes her look a lot like 'La Madonna del parto' (the pregnant Virgin Mary from old paintings).

Fa-bu-lous dressed royals. Are you watching Letizia? They look more royal than La Reina de España earlier this week, at the solemn opening session of the new legislature of Parliament...
All looked abfab. Interesting that the Albert and Caroline side of the family dress up with hats and gloves but that the Stéphanie side takes a step lower. Prince Albert should always wear this black tenue and burn that ugly white thing. He looks so good and so much slimmer in black.

YES!!!!!!!!!!! (thank you for this link: Monaco National Day 2016 - Pictures )   
What a delight, perhaps my favorite family gathering on National Day since Prince Rainier was alive and Caroline's kids were mere babies/children themselves, and now the next generation, alas.
The only downside was the twins not being there with their second cousins.  Also, I find it quite sad that Charlotte has never brought her little one, Raphael, to National Day, but I think I understand the reason... :( :(
On a positive note, OH MY, they all look so lovely (for the ladies) and handsome for the men.  But my favorite couple, imho, are on another level ~ Pierre & Beatrice ~ the swan & debonaire gentleman (aka mythical prince charming). They look like they've stepped out of another time, a fairytale, two halves of a perfect whole. Lol I'm finally getting used to his beard & moustache (makes him look older but still good-looking as ever). The quintessential man. And soon to be father, judging by his goddess's maternal belly. 
Princess Caroline was made to be a grandmother, she looks delighted by her grandchildren, especially the oldest one whose hand she holds, ahhhh. Btw, the girl with the red hair is the first one that caught my eye, as I recall she & Princess Alexandra hanging out together at Prince Albert & Princess Charlene's wedding in 2011. (:^)
Princess Stephanie looks happy & gregarious as ever. And what a wonderful surprise to see her son with her, though I do miss her two girls. :(
Princess Alexandra is growing up, but still maintains her little girl face, a child-woman. :)
I love how Princess Charlene's lipstick matches the lovely flowers on her hat, such an exquisite woman with a wonderful sense of style all her own, a jewel. Prince Albert chose well. :)
Charlotte is the only one that brings a lump of sadness to my throat. She looks so forlorn. Out of all Princess Caroline's children I never expected Charlotte to end up where she is now - alone, unmarried, etc. She cuts a lonely figure, and not only here. Still, she's only 30 years old and has the rest of her life in front of her, plenty of time to find true love... I'll be rooting for her, perhaps one day she'll find her own prince charming like this:

Charlene was the most elegant of all the ladies to day, she was stunning, ,
I id not like the dress of caroline this year and Stephanie, I will not say nothing
The dress of the Charlotte is beautiful but Charlotte does not know how to sit , crossed leg! it is not a behaviour to have in a church or at an event.
The twins are georgious and were the stars of the ceremony on the place of the palace

OMGosh, thank you so very much Eya for the pics!
The twins are extraordinary!!!!! 
They shine like the sun.  Seriously, they really do steal the show, and rightfully so. I've been in love with them since the day they were born (always wished I was a twin). The adorable white coats they wear make them look otherworldly, like angels, sent straight from heaven. All the waiting was well worth it. Bless these two precious souls. 
ps: and, alas, finally little Raphael! Such a darling.

Raphael was only in the balcony. Why not down the place? He is old enough to be down like Sasha and India.
