This week, Queen Elizabeth II made a video call to the four Senior Responsible Officers (SROs) leading the deployment of the COVID-19 vaccine across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. During the video call, the Queen received information about the collaborative effort which has led to more than 18 million people across the UK receiving a first dose of the vaccination, and the ongoing work to keep communities safe. In addition, The Queen spoke about her own experience of the vaccine.
Her Majesty is so loving and caring.
ReplyDeleteIndeed she is!
DeleteWonderful pink shade.

She looks lovely in that color. Anyone else notice the purse? Love that even for a zoom she put together her outfit the way she would face to face- hair done, dress, brooch, pearls (earrings & necklace), pumps & purse. She is such a professional and classy lady. Well done your Majesty!

I agree, Glo.
DeleteHow about the cushion, same color as the dress!

I noticed the purse too. Made me smile.
DeleteJust great to see her. She makes my day! Hopefully some who were doubtful about it, will also heed her encouragement to get vaccinated
ReplyDeleteThe Queen looks lovely in her pink dress, pearls and brooch. Her smile in the first photo warms my heart.
ReplyDeleteShe likes small talks, I think
ReplyDeletePure Queen Elisabeth vintage, she never disappoints. I made a comment about Eugenie’s hair on a different thread, and somebody suggested that I should lighten up, well here is the perfect example , there are COVID restrictions, and some people are hesitant to get their hair cut, but if you want to look presentable, no need to be fancy... there are ways, just look at her Majesty.

It's not the same, the Queen has a down-scaled number of employees, who are in quarantine with her, and I imagine one of them does her hair. That is not the case for Eugenie.
DeleteEugenie's hair could have been due to her pregnancy. Some pregnant women don't feel comfortable getting their hair dyed because of the chemicals. I liked Eugenie's lighter tips. It looked like balayage whether it was intentional our not.
DeleteQueen looks fabulous. I can only hope to have a fraction of her energy and drive when I'm her age.

DeleteAs to pregnant women hair, there are some bío- dying products which do not contain the most dangerous chemicals.
Anyway, one can choose not to dye their hair at all.

DeleteSo nice to have someone on this blog who corrects our spelling mistakes. Aren't we the lucky ones.
Really love this colour on the Queen. It's fabulous. And perfect accessories as well.
ReplyDeleteAnd apart from that, massive respect and admiration for her given whatever else she must have on her mind, including Philip being in hospital and all that.
Long live her majesty.

She looks magnificent! What a wonderful color! She is very dedicated to her duty. She is such a great example for all royals!

That's a great shade of pink on her!! Wow.
ReplyDeleteSitting there in front of that monitor on a "zoom call" as it were, I can't help but think about all the technology that she has seen come and go. When all this began she was heard over the radio and that was the "state of art" tech at the time. :-) Long live the Queen!

Queen Elizabeth we love you;your kind considerate,and never put yourself before others. Some people need to follow her example.How dare a boffin think they are more important.(Tabby)
ReplyDeleteAnonymous @18:48, yes and I am sure that Eugenie is cooking her own meals, vacuuming her house and scrubbing her own toilets. You don’t think she has domestic personnel?
ReplyDeleteThey all have staff that either stay on the premises and/or get tested on regular basis.
And I am not talking about her hair being in poor condition due to pregnancy, my point was that her coloring was atrocious and a simple ponytail would have been a solution.
Once again, nothing personal.

Eugenie lives in Ivy Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace and doesn't have access to the Queen's staff. Whether she and her husband have staff that they pay for privately I don't know, but it's unlikely to be more than a house keeper (possibly part time). It's a small two-bedroom cottage, they certainly don't have staff living there and it also doesn't afford a lot of space for staff in general. Nor does Eugenie have nearly as much money as William & Kate for instance.
DeleteIn regards to The comment about Eugenie, I think that a simple pony

The Queen is better dressed for a zoom call than most of the younger royals we have seen. A solid color that brightens the face is the best it can get. She isn't wearing any distracting accessories so the focus will stay on the topic of the discussion. ~d
ReplyDeleteSomething reassuring about seeing and hearing HM. What a difficult week it must have been for her, with her beloved Philip in hospital ! Yet here she is, looking spectacular in that shade of pink ! Ana
ReplyDeleteAna
DeleteVery much agreed.

Anonymous @19:23.... really!!! She still has the ability to comb her hair herself, just like any other able woman... it’s ridiculous that you keep defending her hairstyle like if this was a personal attack, it is not, just a simple observation on a fashion thread.
ReplyDeleteHer hair was terrible on a picture for the ages, it is not the end of the world, just my opinion... I think she is a fine woman, and she has improved her style immensely over the years.

Anonymous 19:23, I have a hard time understanding your rationale about Eugenie not having as much money as William & Kate, since when one has to be a millionaire in order to present oneself properly groomed? I also find her hair pretty bad on her Instagram picture, that being said everybody is entitled to a bad hair day, and some of us just recognizing for what it is. I understand if you would say that you do like it and find it pretty, and in that we differ.

One thing that might interest. The Queen was wearing her engagement brooch in this video. It is not often worn nowadays but it feels significant that is on her dress whilst her husband is in hospital.
