New photos of Queen Camilla have been released to mark her 78th birthday, which falls on Thursday. The images, taken earlier this month by Chris Jackson, were captured in the garden at Raymill House — Her Majesty’s private residence in Wiltshire.
In the photos, Queen Camilla is wearing a turquoise dress made from fabric featuring a rainforest design. Her jewelry includes her wedding band, a five-carat emerald-cut diamond engagement ring, and a distinctive gold ring composed of circular plaques worn on her little finger. Her Majesty is expected to spend this year’s birthday privately.
Joyeux anniversaire au véritable amour, à l’amour de toujours du Prince Charles.
ReplyDeleteSi le prince vous aime autant, cela signifie que vous êtes une femme remplie de qualités, fort appréciable, digne d’honneur et de respect.
Je vous souhaite un merveilleux 78e anniversaire, Sa majesté.

Simply beautiful.

DeleteI agree. Definitely photoshopped.
Pardonnez ma méprise.
ReplyDeleteDu roi* Charles voulais-je dire.

Two fabulous photos of the Queen. I think she has very pretty hair.
ReplyDeleteCes photos sont magnifiques ; le photographe a eu le bon goût de les prendre dans un jardin verdoyant !
ReplyDeleteThis is one of her most beautiful everyday outfits ever (for me). Not quite clear why, but it is. Thankfully, a rewear. My other favourites are her tartan skirt suits, in that case, I exactly know why (structure and length).
ReplyDeleteThe birthdaygirl looks lovely! Tomteby, Öland
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. Happy birthday, Queen Camilla
ReplyDeleteVery pretty informal pictures, very characteristic for Q.Camilla.
ReplyDeleteOf her signature dresses I like the colours of this one. Her hair looks soft, pretty colour
ReplyDeleteVa bene che è stata rivalutata, ma dire bellissima è un po’ esagerato.
ReplyDeleteAuguri ad una piacevole signora, con fatica moglie di re.
Happy Birthday to lovely Queen Camilla! I hope she has her version of a perfect day. I think she looks fabulous in these 2 photos.

Agree, this dress is not a surprise as far as the cut is concerned, but the fabric is summery and vibrant and looks fresh with the silvery, fluffy hair.

She is very definitely an animal lover, evidenced by her animal patronages, her own dogs (some of which have been rescue animals), her open love of horses, and the prints of her dresses. This is at least the third dress that I can recall (and there are more for sure) to feature animals either in the fabric print, or in some other way, on her clothes. Very noble causes to support. Happy Birthday to Q.Camilla.

Happy birthday to HRH, she is doing such a great job!!!
ReplyDeleteI love that the Queen has chosen/endorsed official birthday photos of her in nature, outdoors, relaxed, smiling. I think it says quite a lot about the values of Camilla and her husband. Happy birthday Queen Camilla!
ReplyDeleteShe looks very nice in blue.
ReplyDeleteIt really needs a strong and good character to be able to do her job after all the circumstances that led to her having to do it. And she does it with looking always genuinely friendly and smiling.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely correct there. The other thing I admire is that she started this job so late in life, and she has managed to do it with such grace.
DeleteI personally wouldn't call it 'grace' but a strong determination to make people accept her and reach the hierarchy top ( just my standpoint, of course).
DeleteA "strong character"? Yes. A "good" one ...? I have doubts.
DeleteI can only agree to the positive comments to the photos. But then I still find her and Charles as persons ambivalent. I won't praise someone who betrayed a naive 19-year-old girl in such a cruel way.
ReplyDeleteNobody can change the past.
DeleteI miss Princess Diana a lot too.
I think that Camilla is basically a divisive figure.
While she has surely managed to be accepted somehow and carries off her role at her best, it is equally sure that there is still much that can never be overcome, let alone forgotten or forgiven.
I strongly believe in a Superior Entity up there, somewhere, Who will judge with equity and no one will be able to take away with that.
As far as I know, this kind of Higher Justice is called " Karma" in eastern philosophies
Whatever the name, nobody can escape from their final destiny.
* to get away with that
DeleteA very happy 78th birthday to Queen Camilla. Very lovely picture. Like this dress.

Thank you to those who spoke the truth. Princess Diana was a beautiful soul and no one can ever take her place. She would have been a beautiful Queen with a real sense of fashion. We miss her so even here in the USA.
ReplyDeleteVirginia : si Diana était encore en vie elle ne serait pas reine puisqu'elle a divorcé en 1996. Paloma.
DeleteDiana remains the most amazing, kind, compassionate royal in the British house of Windsor. Camilla remains the cheater. As does Charles.
