Sandringham Diamond Jubilee Wood: HM The Queen and HRH The Princess Royal

Posted on February 3rd, 2012 by Ella  |  10 Comments »

No, no, this isn't a photo of two Russian grannies hanging out in Siberia in January -- it's the Queen and Princess Anne, braving the freezing temps in England to kick off this year's Diamond Jubilee festivities by doing one of my favorite royal activities:

A royal tree planting!  Hooray!

The queen's jubilee year formally begins on Monday, the 60th anniversary of her accession to the throne.  We'll be celebrating with the royals all year here at MH, too -- I've got a series of Jubilee Hattery Flashbacks queued up, and we'll be playing along as the royals go hither and thither to various events across the Commonwealth.  Get excited, hatters! :)

Christmas at Sandringham 2011: HRH The Princess Royal

Posted on December 25th, 2011 by Ella  |  1 Comment »

As per usual, Anne's either hiding from the photographers on the way to church, or they're ignoring her.  And it's too bad, because this hat really doesn't look too bad!  (It doesn't really match her coat, and it looks a bit springy, but heck, it's Princess Anne!  We'll take what we can get.)

State Visit from Turkey - State Banquet: HRH The Princess Royal

Posted on November 22nd, 2011 by Ella  |  11 Comments »

Princess Anne was front and center at tonight's state banquet, and she didn't scrimp on the bling: this is, of course, the Festoon Diamond Tiara, probably more familiar to most royal watchers as the tiara that Autumn Phillips wore on her wedding day.  We haven't actually seen Anne in this one on the blog yet -- I like how parts of it just barely peek out over her hair!

Royal Wootton Bassett Commemoration: HRH The Princess Royal

First glance: elegant!

Second closer look: '80s?  Yep, I'd almost put money on it.

Either way, Anne's wearing this straw-and-tulle creation to an important event: the official ceremony giving the town of Wootton Bassett its "Royal" prefix.  If you've not been reading about the town's special efforts to honor Britain's war dead, have a look over here.
