We covered this on Sunday -- I've linked it in the body of this post -- but this photo came in late, and it's so cute.

"No, no, I know. I told Harry you'd be happy to perform at the reception, too!"

Princess Beatrice

Hello, legs! Good for Beatrice - get those legs out there! It's summer, you're single (although, for what it's worth, all you partnered ladies should also feel free to get your legs out) -- and now is the time! (This is not related to her outfit, but I kind of feel for Bea, knowing that she's got her sister's wedding coming up AND her ex just married some woman he dated for like six months. No matter how delighted you might be to be single, those events might make you feel a little...aggravated.)

Sophie Wessex

Sophie has popped out in PATTERNS this week. I decided she's spent a few good afternoons reading all the posts we've done lately about the importance of a floral day dress.

This is ZINGY! (Against such a hideous background; what a nightmare locale.)

Charles and Camilla

Chaz and Cams visited Northern Ireland this week; this is the Memorial Garden in Omagh Town Centre.

There of course was also drinking.

Fergie

Fergie attended the Brit Awards, and I am going to be fascinated to see how she is included in Eugenie's wedding -- I mean, obviously she will BE THERE, but it's going to be interesting to observe her role and how front and center she is allowed to be, given that (a) of course she is Mother of the Bride, (b) she and Andrew still live together, even though they are divorced, and (c) Philip allegedly hates her. It's an emotionally complicated family scenerio. (FWIW, I thought she looked great at Meghan and Harry's wedding and I think they should let Fergie Ferg at this event -- it's just going to be interesting to let it unfold.) ANYWAY she looks nice here.

King Willem-Alexander Visits Latvia

"I'M ON A BOAT. It's not the same without you, Maxima." (I assume Max was meant to go on this trip, but withdrew due to her sister's tragic death last week.)

King Philippe and Queen Mathilde

It's like Mathilde's dress would NOT ALLOW HER to go Full Floral.

Princess Sofia

Speaking of full floral! This is lovely. (It's LK Bennett, and NOT sold out, so Sofia does not yet have the Meghan/Kate effect rolling.)

Princess Sofia, Prince Carl Philip, Princess Madeleine

These are some HUGE BOUQUETS! Everyone here looks great; Sofia, in particular, has been looking steller lately.

Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel

INDULGE YOUR CAFTAN MANIA, VICTORIA.

Petter Stordalen, Crown Princess Victoria

This dress is ALSO pretty; a good week, overall, for our friends in Sweden.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Crown Prince Frederick

This was a "wreath-laying ceremony and moment of silence at the Monument in Memory of the Fallen at NATO headquarters in Brussels," so that's a serious thing, but I could not resist their matching leans here.

Queen Letizia

More floral! Floral everything! (Her skirt is, of course, Boss -- it's on super sale at the moment, also. FYI.)

Letizia and Felipe

Also! King Felipe and Queen Letizia have arrived in New Orleans. They're going to be in the US for six days, stopping by San Antonio, and culminating in a White House visit. Go out and say hello!
