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

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! :)

Queen Cake's hat at this visit to the Dutch Council of State is wacky, but it's repeat wacky.  The real story is the topper behind her...

Poor Máx looks a little like she's just won the Run for the Roses...

Danish Ruby Jubilee - Service of Thanksgiving: HM The Queen of Denmark

It's a mini-Saturn hat for Daisy's big day -- and in royal purple, so no one will be confused about who the anniversary girl is.  On anyone else, I'd be saying some truly terrible things about this, I think, but since it's the Great Dane herself -- eh, it's really not that bad!

It's back-of-the-head hat time with Mette-Marit again ... I'm really starting to dislike these, probably mostly because she wears them so often.  Time for a new trend?
