I completely agree with LadyFinn re Victoria's outfit at the opening of Parliament. This was perfection down to the last degree! She looked just wonderful.
As to the concert outfit, she loses me on that one. A bit too dramatic for my taste.

I am not a fan- to be totally honest, I yelled "NO!" when I saw the photo... my roommate was very confused.

Her hair is so much more elegant and softer all round. I had to look twice to make sure it was Victoria in that shot because for the first time I could really see how much she and Madeleine resemble each other.
I love her ensemble, right down to, or up to, her matching hair bow and I marvel how she, Sofia and Silvia manage to walk on those cobblestones without breaking their ankles or, at the very least, their heels.
I agree, Muriel, but from that photo it looked like she was giving Daniel a flea in his ear. It seems he missed the "black suit" memo.

She looked great at the Parliament but I'm not so sure I like her outfit at the concert. That top....

Back to her slicked-back hair ala Prince Daniel. :( The only thing I like about this outfit is her shoes... lovely and feminine.

I love the cut an colour of her dress and the necklace is perfectly framed by the dress. But the shoes . . .they are wonderful and, somewhat surprisingly, a little bit "girly".
From the top of her hair to the tip of her toes, she looks amazing . . . (and we won't continue to wonder who mangled Daniel's tie).

I so wish Victoria would ease up on the severe/plastered to the head hair. She could look so much more youthful.

Lovely flattering dress. The stiffness of the dress worked lovely. I am not fond of this hair style, it's harsh around her face. I think she needs a totally new hair look, it's been like this for ever and this seems the style she always goes for.

 I think she keeps this hairstyle because it's an easy one for her to do herself. Ach, it seems like only yesterday we were all complained about the ubiquitous ponytail.
So, I am wondering if she been wearing that bun long enough for us to moan about it and, reminding ourselves to be careful what we wish for.

The only difference in a bun and a ponytail is a bun is usually round and stays in place, whereas the ponytail swishes around! She really needs to change her style to soften it up!! She is starting to look like a school marm... :)
