  2. Très belle veste imprimée que la Reine a su associer à une jupe droite gris clair ou vert amande ? J'adore sa coiffure avec les cheveux plus longs !

    Her ladylike jackets are usually admirable and perfect, this one is no exception. And also a good example, how standing above fashion, in the sense of: not adapting the last fashion in jackets, can be so beautiful.

    This jacket is a piece of art, very beautiful. I find the brooch unnecessary. Those magnificent pearls are enough.

  12. She always gets it right.
    And can I just say, for a 79 year old woman her hair is so shiny and luxurious. I wish I knew her secret, or at least what hair products she uses!
