Princess Charlene, Inside Celebration Of Mass At Cathedrale Notre-Dame Immaculee

This is, per Getty, part of the "official ceremonies for the Monaco National Day." I assume that's Monaco's version of the US's 4th of July?

And this! This was earlier this week and it is ALSO great, although her "someone save me" thousand yard stare has also wandered back into frame. No matter, at least her freedom from beige has been assured.
