Queen Beatrix' very beautiful "Small Floral Motive Tiara":
 
It's really one of my favourites!
The "Laurel Wreath Tiara" worn by Beatrix and Margriet:

Here is two pictures of the same spanish tiara 
It's funny, she is wearing the same dress, but if i'm not in mistake the first photo is from the last year and the other one is from the 80's!

Yes, you can tell she's older in the first picture...I really like this tiara, it's so femenine!
Here's another one (from GettyImages)

I was trying to find her not-so-pleasant-to-look-at Poppy Tiara (or it can be worn as a tiara)...

Queen Margrethe's poppies aren't so much a tiara as they are adorning headpieces. They aren't so pleasant to look at, are they?

This is my favorite of all tiarias. It is delicate without being overly fragile. It is so versatile ...... I have yet to see it used in a way that didn't look wonderful. It moves from semi-formal to utmost regal. A fair stretch for any "small" tiara. It certainly leaves the traditional "small" tiara's received by the princesses of other royal houses for dead.
In fact it is to die for.....

Now if she could just loose the oversized sash she wouldn't look like a child dressing up. The horrible thing swamps her, her dress and the jewels!

Great job mims11
Btw. 1 this unknown tiara http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n.../Jewels/pr.jpg
was known as Princess Mary's Diamond Honeysuckle Tiara. HRH Princess Mary, COuntess of Harewood recive this tiara made out of a diamond base mounted with five honeysuckle flowers. The tiara was sold after Mary's death.
Btw. 2 What about crowns with fleur-de-lis, isn't it a kind of flower?
