Prince Carl Philip

Prince CP visited Denmark this week, and they showed him this GIANT CHAIR.

Prince Carl Philip

I believe he ALSO went to France? Informative Caption seems to think he's in Denmark and France AT THE SAME TIME, which would be amazing and magical. In addition to that, this is one of my favorite Informative Captions Ever: "Prince Carl Philip of Sweden visited the central warehouse of Ikea...and showed himself very interested in the installations of solar energy." Listen, EVERYONE loves Ikea.

I assume they're talking about his facial hair here.

Zara Phillips with Mia

Look how SNUGGLY AND CUTE Baby Mia is! I also want her stocking cap in Grown Up Lady Size.

Prince Charles

"THIS is where my brain is supposed to be? Interesting."

Charles spoke at a Holocaust Memorial Day ceremony this week, which is a very somber and important event, for which he looked very appropriate and perfectly tailored.

Camilla

I enjoy that whenever they send Camilla somewhere that involves drinking, SHE DOES IT.

Princess Charlene and Prince Albert

First of all, this coat is great on her. Second, she seems much happier than usual. There was even a photo of them kissing, and it was only SLIGHTLY awkward instead of TOTALLY. Keep it up, kids.

King Felipe and Queen Letizia

I am not really feeling this on Letizia. Something about the proportions feels wonkus to me.

Queen Letizia

But this red cropped jacket? LOVE.

Queen Letizia

I feel like if there were a Queen Letizia set of paperdolls, this would be on the cover. It feels VERY HER.

Queen Letizia and King Felipe

And this is glam and I love it on her. She LOVES PANTS and she really wears them well. (I myself do not; I have a long torso and it's hard to find pants that work on me. If I were married to King Felipe, I would be wearing dresses one hundred percent of the time. And also I would spend way too much time talking to people about his beard.)

Royals Round-Up, January 30, 2015

This week's slideshow brings you both BABIES AND BOOZE. Two of my favorite things. Also: Loads of Prince Carl Phillip Around the internet: InStyle brings you the MOST delightfully comprehensive Kate Middz Style Slide show. It truly does have everything. Look at this wack hat on Queen Mathilde, recently seen on Maxima and STILL INSANE. (Royal Hats) Tatler explains why we all want to be a Duchess. (Tatler is so so amusing to me. Ahem: "People will only care who you are sleeping with if they think the line of succession has been compromised, and often not even then, because it's rude to wonder who a duchess has been sleeping with." I spent an exorbitant amount on a subscription and it's worth every single penny. Last month, there was an article about eccentric olden time Brits with exotic animals and it included -- I AM NOT KIDDING -- a photo of a LEMUR on a DECK CHAIR on a YACHT!) Maxima, bless her, is rewearing this dress that always makes me think she accidentally splashed through a mud puddle. (Royalista) Also at Royalista, look how cute Princess Estelle is, watching the European figure skating championships! People did a whole article on Cressida's alleged transformation into "Hollywood It Girl." Over at the BBC: Dark arts: Holbein and the court of Henry VIII Charles Spencer -- Diana's brother -- has a new book out about Charles I/Charles II (well, it's new in the US; it's been out and selling very well in the UK for awhile, I believe) and he is really making the rounds talking about it. As one must. It does sound quite interesting. (Vanity Fair) Today is Felipe's 47th birthday and Hello! of course is on the case.
