This Sunday, May 5, the 10th edition of the COCC Ride cycling race organized by The Champagne and Oyster Cycling Club of Monaco (COCC) took place. The annual the Champagne and Oyster Cycling Club of Monaco charity cycling race is held to raise funds for the benefit of The Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation.
More than 90 participants raced from Saint-Tropez to Monaco, and the cyclists were welcomed and congratulated on their arrival in Monaco by Princess Charlene. The Princess also joined the street party held after the race.
The funds raised from this annual St Tropez to Monaco charity bike ride will be donated to The Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation to help in the development of the awareness program on water safety and the risks of drowning, and to teach children swimming.
Magnifique et heureuse

I like the color of the poncho but I' m
ReplyDeletegetting blanket vibes.
My thoughts. So unnecessary in warm 25C weather at South of France this week.
DeleteI have to agree with you, I do as well.
DeleteLikely a $5000 poncho the brand is luxurious
DeleteC'est un vrai plaisir de la voir heureuse dans les rues de Monaco ; je crois reconnaître un de ses frères en tenue de cycliste !
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poncho with an outrageous price tag: 5.500 euros !!
ReplyDeleteShe is the only royal wore wears outrageously expensive outfits with boring style
DeleteThanks No name 10:56 ......for the information on the price for the poncho.
DeleteBut did Princess Charlene buy the poncho and if so, was it at that price or was it on sale with a discount?
There is a “scratch my back and I’ll scratch your back” in the rag trade.
The marketing people who work for the fashion houses will go to all extremes to have a celebrity or a Royal wear one of their creations as it is the equivalent of thousands of dollars for advertising that doesn’t cost them a cent.
They will give their creation on loan or will give it as a gift.
I think a lot of red carpet celebrities use Rent-a-Frock but I don’t think it’s the case for Princess Charlene.
Also red carpet celebrities can get paid by a fashion house for wearing one of their creations. Some top name stars can receive payments starting at six figures.
Business is business, you know.
Yes I had a look at their website as well. Definitely a brand for millionnaires .... but I like almost everything, no danger I would order anything. Charlene knows how to please herself.
Delete@ 17:10 Not a boring style ! Classy ! Hyper classy for whom can wear that so beautifully. A minimalist style is good enough for her. Congrats Charlene. Most women need the right color, the right detail, the right jewel etc ...
DeleteLove, love, love the outfit and styling. Perfect
ReplyDeletePrincess Charlene looks stunning in this chic cape because she has athletic swimmers shoulders.
ReplyDeleteIf there was such a thing as ‘cape envy’ I would have it! The cape looks glorious on Charlene!
ReplyDeleteShe herself has never looked better. It’s heartening to see her grow stronger and healthier everyday. She puts the ‘serene’ back into HSH!
Lowri.
Such joy to see the Princess with beautiful, big, generous smiles.
DeleteHer brother, Gareth, can be seen walking behind Princess Charlene in photos N°3 and N°4.
Charlene’s mother is a very beautiful and elegant woman.
She has three very good looking children, Gareth, Sean-Michael and Charlene.
Gareth has an active role in The Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation.
I think Charlene’s mother spends most of her time in South Africa.
p.s. I hope someone will do an affordable look-a-like of the poncho.
She looks finally really happy 😀
ReplyDeleteIndeed she does! Love this look on her, such a sporty and classy look! Beautiful wool cape!
DeleteSi j'avais les moyens financiers, j'aurai acheté ce beau poncho.
ReplyDeleteIl est chic et surtout bien porté sur la tenue qui est décontractée.
De plus,la princesse est souriante.
Love the poncho. Beautiful details and colour. Great styling with jeans and a white shirt. Very classy.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Charlene is really coming into her own - finally! Great to see her so happy!
ReplyDeleteAgree with you and all other positive comments. Great outfit and happy Princess. Lovely
Deletesounds like the daily mail constantly pointing out her lowest moments in life, move on so much time has passed since then
DeleteEvery nice casual look, yet elegant. The cashmere cape looks so cosy and warm yet allows for movement. Not blanket vibe, more of a sweater, very soft texture
ReplyDeleteCapes are really the fashion statement now. Many of the royal women are wearing them.
ReplyDeleteShe looks casual and relaxed. Its great to see her so happy.
ReplyDeleteI like how she paired her ensemble with jeans yet the results are stunning and very sophisticated with the shoes she chose. As much as I like her in dark colors it is nice to see her with the beautiful oatmeal poncho with the brown leather trim. Princess Charlene is bedazzling the crowd with her lovely smile!
ReplyDeleteDeadeggs has made an excellent point about High Fashion. I understand that the British Royal Family is not permitted to wear garments on loan or as gifts, which I think is a wise policy. In the case of Monaco, it is more than obvious that the princely family is a lucrative, promotional source for the House of Chanel and vica versa. The cape in question probably falls into this category. Charlene’s face looks so much more relaxed, I hope she feels happier.

Her parents have moved to a house across the border nearby in France and that has made a world of difference.
ReplyDeleteThere has been some critique how extravagant Princess Charlene lives It was reported she spends over 1.28 euros on her wardrobe and jewelry annually so I would think that as wealthy as Prince Albert is she would not have to borrow or receive clothes as a gift. She obviously has a very generous and loving husband. It is so nice to see her so happy and confident as shown in these photos!
ReplyDeleteWe should stop believing everything we read. There is only a few persons in the world who knows how much Charlene uses on her clothes. The press, blog owners or the readers are not one of them.
DeleteSpot on!
DeleteWhat great look on Charlene again. css
ReplyDeleteAnything sports related she really seems to shine. I wonder if she, Albert, and the twins will be attending a lot of the Summer Olympic events since they are so close by.
