    Queen Rania looks, smart, elegant, appropriate and very beautiful. Perfect in every way for this occasion. And congratulations to the King for this honour. Well done to both of them.

    1. I agree, it is quite a special honor for a hard-working king and queen. They both look excellent. It's good to see some women forsaking those high, spiky heels lately. Walking around Assisi could be treacherous in them.

      Exactly, pointy heels would have been a disaster. She is certainly one classy lady.

    Fabulous look for Rania. Simple yet elegant. It’s beautifully constructed, definitely couture.

    For me, She has an exceptional fashion sense. I like - almost - always everything Queen Rania wears. She seems to have an elegant behaviour as well. Phantastic. But, I feel sorry to have this to say, beginning from this her face starts to look overdone with fillers - especially the lips - or whatever. This is really sad, because, why can those woman not get older in grace.

      Agree - ein blindes Huhn findet auch einmal ein Korn. Sie ist das Epitom dafür, dass man mit allem Geld der Welt (und sie gibt sehr viel davon aus)sich Stil und Geschmack nicht kaufen kann.

    Congratulations to King Abdullah on the award. His kingdom is in a tough situation in the middle east and He and the Queen have been so strong in their support of human rights and peace. And they are succeeding.
