Thanks for those pics, Ice!
He,he,he in the 4th she' wearing reading glasses, as I'm doing now. Besides their shapea are similar. And we have the same hairdo!

Anyway, Madame, why such austere, gloomy outfit? That's good for Aunt Tosca, not for you. ;-)

I think that Princess Caroline will never cease to amaze us : that she chose to be present at the Council of Europe on her birthday. She is determined to show her true dedication to her cause, and to work on her birthday as any modern woman would do. It is as if she were trying to change the focus on her towards the world at large (and also to her family, since this is also Ernst's day, since it is their anniversary). In some pictures, she looks so serene, as if making her mark in the world was really what she was meant to do. Thirty years ago, in an interview, she said :"Why all the fuss ? I haven't done anything to deserve all this attention. Who will remember me in 50 years ?" Well, thirty years later, she is better known than ever, and will probably be increasingly so. She is the best well-rounded role model we can have.
Thanks to all for the pictures.

Bravo, Princess Caroline, and Happy Birthday !

She looks like a kid! Sounded like she had a cold or something though.

Avalon · #10 01-23-2007, 11:04 AM

And yet more pictures from Isifa.
Princess Caroline looks very elegant, as usual.

I agree ilovesroyals.
I hope tonight she goes out and celebrates her birthday; she deserves it.

She is wonderful, simple, nothing "flashing". Very plain dressing, simple hairdo, beige maquillage.
She really knows how to be for EVERY situation. This is the real class

She has always had that special touch, that special smile with children.

You have made great points here, iloveroyals!

Instead of speculations where she would spent her birthday, Psse Caroline chose to reverse the spotlight to the little ones. A little "sacrifice" on her birthday in order to raise public awareness on most important issues: children rights, their protection, development, growth. She's definately extraordinary role model!

Princess Caroline's speech can be found here (French version)

kokong · #17 01-23-2007, 06:28 PM

It speaks volume of what Princess Caroline is doing for the unprevilege children. She is giving her time (on her big 50th year) to promote the welfare of 'her children'. God Bless!!!

iloveroyals · #18 01-23-2007, 06:49 PM

I think it's also very kind of her to include (in her speech) her deceased parents and especially her brother. Almost as if her birthday-Day grounded her even more in her family roots. She is the least narcissistic person in that sense: very family oriented, very world-wide oriented. And with young children, with that sober outfit and gereral appearance, it makes me think she would have made a great teacher or child psychologist (which she had studied for at the Sorbonne, I mean child psychology.)

I am a big fan of Princess Caroline's but she needs a more becoming hairstyle! She wears it so flat and it really does not do her justice. Maybe some lighter highlights too would give her a softer look. Hair died so dark at our age can look harsh and aging, she has such a pretty face but that hairstyle is so unflattering on her!

RADKER18 · #20 01-24-2007, 05:28 AM

Thanks for all the pics I like her outfit she looks great
