    Tonight at the King's Dinner for the #NobelPrize2017 laureates: Silvia: Leuchtenberg Sapphire with blue familiar gown Victoria: Lilian's tiara with purple floral gown Sofia: wedding tiara (emerald version) with light green gown (the emerald version of the tiara looks way better on this new base)...

    The Duchess of Cambridge's Eveningwear Part 8: March 2017 - November 2018

    I usually love the Duchess' outfits, but this is a huge miss for me. I just don't understand the combination of two shades of purple in the shoes and the bag, the blue dress and the golden earrings. The dress is okay, the earings are okay, but the shoes and the bag are not good with this outfit...

    State Visit from the King and Queen of Spain: July 12-14, 2017

    That would be great! The Duchess is in London and they met last night, and the opening of the Natural History Museum Hitze Hall is this evening, so she has the afternoon off. I would love to see them in the Royal Box with HRH.

    Dutch State Visits: General Discussion, Suggestions, Musings

    My only hope is a Dutch State Visit to the UK. That would be so amazing! Since the Dutch and the British share Shell (which is a huge company), I kind of think it may be a possibility in the near future. They are pretty important trading partners, and I think they both hope they can remain...

    She is coming along to Germany and Poland. There are 12 members of their staff going with them: Miguel Head, Rebecca Priestley née Deacon, Sir David Manning, an equerry, tour secretary, 2 logistic officers, 4 communication people and a personal assistant (likely Natasha Jackson née Archer) The...

    The Duchess of Cambridge's Daytime Fashion Part 22: May 2017 - August 2017

    I like the dress, but I hate the new hairstyle! She has such lovely thick glamorous hair with so many possibilities. This is too short for updos and she looks like 45 instead of 35 in my opinion. I miss the 2011/2012 hair, I loved it and I still admire those beautiful curls and the...

    Queen Máxima's Eveningwear Part 5: June 2017 - October 2018

    It's a gown by Jan Taminiau: https://www.jantaminiau.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/LOOK18.jpg. It's from the Couture 2014 collection. The Queen wore dresses from this collection in the past.

    20th Anniversary of the Death of Diana, Princess of Wales: August 31, 2017

    I'm slightly surprised we haven't seen any arrival pics from today's service. I supposed some photographers woudl go stand at the gates of Althorp. I hope this is out of respect for the family, who will have an undoubtly emotional service ahead of them.

    The Duchess of Cambridge Charities and Patronages 1: 2011- Sep 2022

    https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/880432547913760770 New Event for the Duchess on July 13th. She will open the new Hitze Hall in the Natural History Museum in Londen. She's their Royal Patron. I suppose this means the Cambridges are in Londen that week, so maybe we'll see them for...

    Queen Letizia's Daytime Fashion Part 9: March 2017 - June 2017

    I love the longer hair! I hope she won't cut it again. This suits her face way more in my opinion, the short hairstyle she debuted in 2014 made her look very severe.

    Queen Máxima's Daytime Fashion Part 11: December 2016 - June 2017

    You are absolutely right, only the southern part of the Netherlands is Catholic. The Royal House is protestant and that makes Queen Máxima the spouse of a protestant King, even though she's a Catholic herself. For the privilège du Blanc, you have to be a Catholic sovereign or married to a...

    Tiara and Jewels guessing for upcoming events 3: 2017

    I would LOVE that. They would do a great job, maybe alongside the royals that are present usually nowadays. I think the Duchess will wear the Cambridge Lover's Knot for the banquet. The Queen of Spain will wear the big Fleur de Lys tiara. Camilla will go for the Boucheron tiara and I hope the...

    Queen Máxima Jewels 1: 2013 - 2021

    Queen Máxima is wearing the big sapphire tiara in full version tonight in Oslo. She combines it with large sapphire and diamond earrings, the large sapphire bow brooch and a large diamond bracelet/evening watch. She's in every inch a Queen!

    Tiara and Jewels guessing for upcoming events 3: 2017

    I will wait for the guest list to be published by the Norwegian court before I post my guesses for the Birthday party. I do hope the Ladies will wear some nice jewelry on Wednesday too, it's a pity that one isn't white tie. I'm looking forward to see all your guesses! It will be a very good...

    80th Birthday Celebrations of King Harald V and Queen Sonja

    The Norwegian Media might be right, I'm not certain about the Royal Couple's attendance, but I do expect they will both attend. Nothing is certain before things are confirmed by the Dutch or Norwegian courts, which might happen tomorrow. Five Dutch Royals still is a strange amount, since I...

    80th Birthday Celebrations of King Harald V and Queen Sonja

    I read on Twitter that five Dutch Royals will attend. The reporter is usually very reliable. I think we can definitely say the King and Queen will go, and I suppose the other three will be princess Beatrix or princess Mabel, and maybe Constantijn and Laurentien, since we won't come to five if...

    80th Birthday Celebrations of King Harald V and Queen Sonja

    I do hope King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima will attend too. They both don't have anything in their official agendas for May 9th and 10th. So it's very possible they will attend too! Now that will be glittering! I'm very looking forward to it!

    State Visit from Argentina to The Netherlands: March 27-28, 2017

    She can not receive the same order Letizia did (because she's still Argentinan) and certainly not the same order as King Willem-Alexander (because he's the king, and probably also because she still is Argentinan). Princess Beatrix was attending the state banquet too. She wore the Antique Pearl...

    State Visit from Argentina to The Netherlands: March 27-28, 2017

    Yes, it's a Dutch order. The Argentinan Orders a President can award are only for foreigners (like the one Letizia wore). Queen Máxima is, as was mentioned here before, still Argentinan, since she can't renounce her citizenship, so she can't have this order and she is still wearing her Dutch...

    State Visit from Argentina to The Netherlands: March 27-28, 2017

    For guests coming from far away countries, it is not very rare that they arrive before the actual start of the visit to get over their jetlag. Foreign royal visitors stay with the King and Queen very often when they visit the Netherlands. They often stay at the Royal Palace in Amsterdam...

    Tiara and Jewels guessing for upcoming events 3: 2017

    We've got some glittering days ahead of us. On Monday evening, a state banquet will be held in honour of the President of Argentina in The Netherlands. Queen Máxima will certainly attend, and I expect we'll see princess Beatrix too. I would usually say small tiaras for both ladies, however...

    The Duchess of Cambridge's Daytime Fashion Part 21: March 2017 - May 2017

    It looks a lot like her hat from Christmas Day 2015, but when you look at the shape, it seems to be different. The Christmas hat is a bit pointy on the front, this hat is completely round. However, the colour and the flower on the back are the same.

    Crown Princess Victoria's Name Day - March 12: 2003-2011,2014-2015, 2017-2019-2025

    Prince Daniel and princess Estelle are attending the celebration with Victoria today at the Royal Palace in Stockholm. They've just arrived. I think they didn't bring prince Oscar with them, at least he is not there at the moment.

    Tiara and Jewels guessing for upcoming events 3: 2017

    We have some glittering months ahead, with a few nice state visits. I suppose Queen Letizia will wear something small in Japan, but I do really hope she borrows a tiara from Queen Sofia to show that she even has access to them now she's Queen. We have the Belgians visiting Denmark in March...

    State Visit from Canada to Sweden: February 20-23, 2017

    The Nine Prong for Queen Silvia and a light blue gown. The Amethists for princess Sofia for the first time with a dark blue gown! She's debuting a lot of family tiaras recently. Sadly enough not with an updo, again with the strange hairstyle. The combination between blue gown and purple tiara...
