You have to click on it to see it

Anne is wearing the stud part of her pearl and gold Grima earrings and a gold brooch. Sadly, the brooch is hiding amond the pattern of her scarf/wrap.

Asprey (formerly part of Gerrard's, the ex-crown jeweller) have a similar walking stick that I saw on their window a few years ago.
It's a cool one, indeed

No rain and no ducks today, just classic pearls for the Princess Royal today at the garden party for the Not Forgotten Association. HRH is their patron, her great-aunt Mary was their first patron.

I hope so
As a major tiara event like it used to be
Hopefully his first one as King anyway

The only time I have seen Charles wear a crown was when he became Prince of Whales. Why don‘t the royal men wear crowns like their wives do at formal royal and state events?

I must admit having avoided all the proms and circumstances in 2012 with the London Olympics and Diamond Jubilee (I went camping on both occasions), I am doing the same for the double Bank Holiday weekend in June 2022 by going camping in an adult-only site for some peace and quiet.

I shall celebrate this momentous event in my own little ways (ordered new buntings, a couple of special coins and going to this exhibition at Buck House) - no doubt I shall raise a glass or two in her name while I am camping.

That actually sounds pretty good

The opening ceromony of the London Olympics was pretty darn great
when 007 went to see the real HM it was mind blowing (i mean we knew she didn't jump out of the helicopter but it sure was an unforgettable bit of telly

We will need a thread you know

I hope in years to come this is how we remember our elderly Queen
as opposed to ......

Don’t worry @dk168, despite living on the doorstep of Windsor Castle for 20 years+, the first time we visited was only a few years ago, when American friends of ours came over, and we took them there

We visited Buck House a few years back, when they had an exhibition of some of the Queen’s special treasures, including the fabulously mismatched huge pear drop diamond earrings. Are they still doing the combined ticket for the carriage museum and Da Vinci drawings?

Don't know about the combined ticket, sorry!

I went to Buck House in 2012 for the Diamond Jubilee exhibition, and it was fabulous.

One of the highlights was the pink diamond flower brooch as it is ginormous in person!!!

See who was out and about today!

The beaming Queen wore her Peranakan Diamond Jubilee Brooch for a visit of the newly finished Elizabeth Line:

 

[prince.of.preslav]

State Visit Alert!

The Emir of Qatar and Sheikha Al-Mayassa (his sister) are on e two-day State Visit to Spain, where they were greeted by King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia.

Queen Letizia wore her BVLGARI aquamarine drops earrings


Sheikha Al-Mayassa choose earrings with pink and white diamonds, a statement ring and pearl necklace. But also note her pearl belt!



I'm looking forward to tonight's State Banquet, where we should see serious glitter from both ladies!

 

[prince.of.preslav]

The Swedish royals are busy welcoming foreign guests, too. The President and First Lady of Finland arrived today for 2-day State Visit. They were welcomed by the King and Queen and were joined by the Crown Princess- and Price family at the Palace in Stockholm.

Her Majesty wore a rarely seen pair of cab emerald and diamond studs with matching ring for the carriage ride. Once inside she took off the warm wrap and her modern emerald brooch + twisted pearl necklace were revealed.



Crown Princess Victoria wore earrings from Kreuger Jewellery, while her Dream Brooch comes from Kalevala Jewellery and is 'sustainably handmade in Finland'.


Prince CarlPhilip and Princess Sofia were also present.


As usual with the Bernadottes, we can expect a lot of glitter tonight

 

[prince.of.preslav]

Last week the Norwegians hosted the athletes from the 2022 Winter Olympics for a fancy dinner at the Royal Palace in Oslo. Tiaras were not worn, but there were some nice jewels on display nonetheless.



I wish we could see more of Princess Astrid's gold jewels and (opal) charm. She was is wheelchair due to a broken leg. :/
