  3. Une grande palette de robes - Mon choix est vite fait en portant mon regard sur celle de la duchesse de Gloucester qui sait toujours être élégante après avoir sorti les bijoux pour les harmoniser avec sa tenue !

    Oh boy that gold rose top in the last photo is quite the fashion statement. Good on her that she has the confidence to wear it.
