i share a birthday with this sweet little princess

Queen Jetsun Pema and King Jigme Khesar of Bhutan announced the name of their newborn daughter on social media. The royal couple welcomed their third child on Sept. 9 and shared her name with the world after a special Buddhist naming on Saturday.
“Her Royal Highness the Gyalsem has been named Sonam Yangden Wangchuck,” the Queen, 33, and King, 43, announced in coordinating posts on Instagram, sharing a photo of the sleeping newborn snuggled up in a floral blanket
“Sonam is a Bhutanese name denoting merit, longevity and good fortune. The name Yangden, meaning precious jewel, signifies prosperity and wellbeing,” the post read. Wangchuck, meanwhile, is the family’s dynastic name; in Bhutan, only members of the royal family have traditional surnames.

omg omg omg omg
its small
but its a brooch



The Queen got into the festive spirit as she brought Christmas cheer to youngsters at a children's hospice earlier.
Wishing everyone "a very Happy Christmas" she toured Charlton Farm Children's Hospice on the outskirts of Bristol.
Queen Camilla met four-year-old Kitty Jones, who was dressed for the occasion in an Elsa dress from the film Frozen.
Kitty and her parents, Georgina and Dave Jones, were helped by the hospice after a bereavement.
Bending down to meet her and to examine the fabric of her gown, the Queen told Kitty: "Don't you look pretty.
"Isn't that lovely and your necklace and a crown as well."

And it's new!

The Royal Family of Bhutan is beyond sweet, cute, and adorable! Queen Jetsun is stunning and serene!

Moment the King returned to Buckingham Palace with Queen Camilla

It was much the same for King Charles after his Coronation - with the minor addition of receiving a thunderous Royal salute from 4,000 soldiers.

Age-appropriate royal jewellery - the Princess of Wales at Christmas 1983

 

[prince.of.preslav]

I noticed yesterday that a familiar jewel (or rather it's replica) is set to make an appearance on The Gilded Age.



The tiara is an almost exact replica of a 1890's Faberge tiara featuring pear- and briolette-cut diamonds given by Alexander II of Russia to Empress Josephine of the French. The diamonds stayed with the Leuchtenbergs until around the First World War, after which it was purchased by King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of the Belgians for their second son, Prince Charles, Count of Flanders.
The Count, who never married, left the tiara to his sister Queen Marie-José of Italy in 1983. The tiara was put for sale in 2007 by her daughter Princess Maria-Gabriella. It was purchased by Artie and Dorothy McFerrin and currently resides in the Houston Museum of Natural Science.


As you can see, the original is much smaller than the prop used in the TV series.

The Miu Miu red cardigan has pearl incrusted buttons, so technically she's wearing pearls...

for those of us who live in countries where this has not screened yet (we will probably get it at Easter )
in the first 20 min is the bit with the crown jewler working on the crowns

from Christmas broadcast 1957

do you think HM is wearing an anklet ?

I watched the docu earlier today and found it really interesting. The bits with the Crown Jeweller were very interesting, indeed.

Oh my gosh, that is what it looks like! I don't know why, but it tickles me and warms my heart that she would wear one. I only know her as an older woman, more stogy in dress. This reminds me that she was really just a normal woman at heart, regardless of the prestigious role she bore.

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

even though NZ is on the tomorrow side of the date line we are always behind with tv
its new year's eve finally seeing the royal variety performance
i loved Bradley Walsh's plural of royal highness being royal highni as in cacti

and no wonder the royal variety performance is no longer a tiara even
who is Paloma ? and why did she think it was appropreate to 'air her clam' out in the company of Prince William and Prince Daniel ?
Also Victoria's jewlery was even worse on the telly than it looked in still photography
very sad when one thinks of the depth of the Swedish royal vault

im 'liking' the effort you put into your post (thank you)
not what HRH is wearing
sigh
i just dont get this
i mean their dresses and shoes plus bags would have cost goodness knows how much
i kind of get where the Wales are coming from with the cost of living crisis
but the trash newspapers still add up the cost of the clothes

something from the vault is already paid for
i mean vaults contain some modest (but quality) pieces as shown by Queen Camila this year wearing very old pieces from when Queen Elizabeth was young

or wear pearls, much harder for the newspapers to value

i guess when it comes to royal jewles im more a Queen Sofia than a Princess Catherine

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

OMG Queen Margrethe is going to abdicate soon
being a subject of the BRF i just do not get this
but im sad if HM's heath is the cause

Denmark's Queen Margrethe II to abdicate after 52 years on the throne

Denmark's Queen Margrethe II will abdicate in January next year after 52 years on the throne and will be succeeded by her eldest son Crown Prince Frederik.

I was just coming to post that @Daisys and Diamonds. Sad as it is, it probably means we’ll be seeing even more jewels on the future Queen.

i know it sometimes seemed unfair to King Charles that he had to wait so long but im sure our Queen was content for God to deside when her reign was up
Charles did keep him self busy and very productive with his Prince's (now KIng's) trust and his enviromental work
i cant get my head around abdication
but i'll say this for it
it was lovely to see Beatrix happy and smiling at WIllham-Alexander's inauguration
i just hope that Daisy will not have to revert to being a princess
