Kate

Royals-Round-Up

This sign is amazing. I feel like Kate is looking at it and thinking, "that is potentially incredibly rude." (I also just read that she's wearing Diana's earrings here. Which makes sense, as they match her ring.)

Chaz and Cam

Royals-Round-Up

This is at the premiere of The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and how gorgeous that red carpet is.

Camilla

Royals-Round-Up

And Camilla REALLY brought out the jewels for this. That is some BLING.

Camilla at the Fan Museum

Royals-Round-Up

Did you know that there is a museum in London devoted to fans?! There is, and Camilla visited it this week.

Camilla

She loves wearing this fur hat to the races. I also enjoyed this snap because you can see her charm bracelet.

Charles and Camilla

Royals-Round-Up

These two also popped out to celebrate Chinese New Year, which is quite picturesque as a bonus.

I enjoy how VERY FOCUSED Camilla seems to be on learning all about those dumplings.

Prince Charles

Royals-Round-Up

This photo is amazing. It looks like the cover of Charles's new album. Informative Caption tells us, "The Prince of Wales, President of WaterAid visits the recently constructed Lee Tunnel to mark the 150th anniversary of London's sewer network at the Abbey Mills Pumping Station in East London." What a week of engagements for a person: dumplings, movies, sewer tunnels.

But honestly, this is quite fascinating: "The Abbey Mills pumping station is one of the crown jewels of the Victorian sewage system that Joseph Bazalgette designed to help relieve the chronic water and sewage problems of London's growing population in 1865. Prince Charles's visit is to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the start of the modern water system that serves London." Am I weird for wanting to tour this sewage plant? I find ancient plumbing interesting, okay?!? In fact, when I was in fifth grade, my class took a field trip to a local sewage reclamation plant and I thought it was SO INTERESTING. Maybe I should have gone to work for the Department of Water and Power. Which is not quite as gorgeous in LA as it is here.

Queen Elizabeth II Reopen Canada House

Royals-Round-Up

There is a lot of refurbishment in this week's Round-Up. To wit, this is: "Queen Elizabeth II during a visit to reopen Canada House on Trafalgar Square, following an extensive programme of restoration and refurbishment." It appears to have met with Her Approval.

"Mine. ALL MINE."

QE2

Royals-Round-Up

I sincerely love this little jacket. I would wear it. (With jeans.)

Queen Elizabeth II and Lieutenant Governor of Ontario the Honourable Elizabeth Dowdeswell

Royals-Round-Up

"I'm not even paying attention to the rug. Let's talk about how you get your hair so perfectly and gloriously white!"

Princess Anne

Royals-Round-Up

Anne went to the Scotland/Wales rugby match this week, where surely many manly thighs were admired.

Sophie Wessex

Royals-Round-Up

And this is from last week, but I missed it in that post -- Sophie looks foxy here, no?

Fergie

Royals-Round-Up

Fergie took to the runway in the 'Fashion For Relief' event at London Fashion Week (Heather and I went to the NYC one) and that is the origin of that tee shirt. If I may be so bold, isn't EVERYONE against Ebola?

Fergie

Royals-Round-Up

If you listen closely, you can hear Princess Eugenie groaning, "oh my god, MOM."

Maximia

Royals-Round-Up

I hope they're talking about Maxima's hat collection here.

Queen Maxima

Royals-Round-Up

Maxima DOES dig an enormous lid.

Prince Carl Philip and Sofia

Royals-Round-Up

These two popped out for the Opening Ceremony of the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships. They look cute in their ski gear.

Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and Princess Estelle

Royals-Round-Up

HOW CUTE IS PRINCESS ESTELLE IN HER SKI GEAR? She is the most snuggly.

Letizia and Felipe

Royals-Round-Up

It goes without saying, I imagine, that I LOVE THIS on Letizia

Queen Letizia

Royals-Round-Up

And I know you want to eyeball her up-do.

Felipe and Letizia

Royals-Round-Up

This is ALSO a good dress on her, and those shoes manage to be interesting and also conservative. I quite enjoy them.

Queen Letizia

Coats!

Royals Round-Up, February 20, 2015
I just dated this post "2025," so I am not sure what that means about my brain today. Consider that fair warning. In today's slideshow, we've got stripes and dumplings and hats and babies! On GFY: We had a Kate Event on Wednesday, so make sure you didn't miss our coverage of that! Also, in case you missed it, you can currently read the first seven chapters of our forthcoming novel, The Royal We, for free, in advance of its release on April 7th! We really, really hope you enjoy it if you do. (PS: because we've only sold the book in the US and Canada so far, the preview is only available to readers in the US and Canada. I'm sorry! I hope it sells in other places quickly, so you can all read it easily!) Elsewhere on this chilly planet: First and OBVIOUSLY OF MOST IMPORTANCE: Yahoo is running with a story that is surely untrue, and may in fact have somehow morphed out of all of our fantastical speculative prayers, that alleges Prince Harry and Emma Watson are dating. I LONG for this to be fact but fear there is no way, especially because the source is totally impeachable. I feel like this story happened because someone at Australia Woman's Day accidentally fell asleep reading one of our comment threads (specifically this one). I also feel like Emma Watson couldn't ever seriously get involved with Harry without torpedoing her own career, even if he is The Spare. On the other hand, maybe they're just hooking up, in which case, WAY TO GO BOTH OF YOU. The Royal Mint has an interesting piece on the portraits of QE2 that are used on coins. William is off on a tour of China and Japan at the very end of next week, and wished everyone a happy new year in Mandarin recently, prompting the Telegraph to put together this quick video of the Royal Family speaking foreign languages. Also a video from the same source, and very interesting: How scientists used CCTV technology to reveal what Anne Boleyn really looked like. Tom Ford wants to dress Kate Middleton. Let's give it a whirl, Kate! (LuckyShops) There is a new BBC docu that alleges that Charles's former press guru basically sold Wills and Harry out to the press for their father's benefit. Daily Beast has the details. This headline is amazing, over at the Leicester Mercury: Escort agency using Richard III discovery to get new business. That is some innovative marketing! The Express has a quiz to see how much Kate trivia you know. I of course got a perfect score but I SHOULD HOPE SO. It is my job. The Daily Mail (I Know) reports that Cressida is back with her old boyfriend, who is conveniently for their headline writers, also named Harry. Prince Harry is off on a ski vacay at the moment. I thought this week's Tiara Thursday over at Royal Order of Sartorial Splendor was particularly delightful.
