  2. Sur ce style de robe qu'elle a l'air de beaucoup aimer, il a été rajouté un plastron qui apporte une touche originale ; je l'aurais bien vue avec des chaussures confortables d'une teinte camel de la même hauteur que les bottes !

    This is such a great initiative to get young brains not only into books but also story crafting and developing their imaginations. I highly enjoy the Queen's reading room as well - if you are an avid reader I recommend you follow it. I have followed her reading club for years now.

    QC looks great--I love her dress. I think she is really enjoying this event: children and literacy. I love seeing the photos of her with children and their families. All of the girls are having fun with HM Queen Camilla--talk about something they will never forget! Camilla is a lovely and gracious lady who is making a marvelous queen.

    The Queen seems to be a woman who truly befriends everyone she meets. Her charm oozes out of every snapshot.

    Also, she must have to do plenty of homework to address all the organizations and individuals she meets. What a trooper. King Charles has a very, very worthy helpmate.

    There are some budding fashionistas in the gathering! The young lady in the magenta dress, with the curls and braids is clearly enjoying the event. Christine

    Camilla; boots, yet again, at an indoor occasion? Too bad she has not followed the late Queen's example. She has taken on a few more engagements, but the Queen, bless her heart, was steadfast in her duty, even until a day or so before her death. As Camilla's family have made well known, she is not someone who has done much 'work' in her life. So this has to explain why she has the need to take a personal flight to somewhere for a week of 'rest' after her schedule the last month or so. I do understand aging, but look around at Princess Anne, the late Queen, and the other royal women who manage to go to engagements at advanced ages and not take a week off to rest.
