King Charles III and Queen Camilla are making a three-day visit to Northern Ireland. On May 19, 2026, the King and Queen arrived in Belfast and began their trip by touring parts of the Titanic Quarter, a major tourist attraction in the city. They joined a vibrant celebration of music, creativity, and diverse cultural heritage, meeting performers involved in Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, which is coming to Belfast for the first time this August.
Queen Camilla visited Fane Street Primary School in Belfast after receiving a bundle of letters from pupils warmly inviting Her Majesty to visit. The school is a vibrant and welcoming community, with 285 pupils representing 45 countries and speaking an impressive 47 different languages. The Queen met students, presented some awards and unveiled a commemorative plaque to mark the visit.
Following their engagements throughout the afternoon, King Charles III and Queen Camilla received Northern Ireland’s First Minister Michelle O’Neill and Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly at Hillsborough Castle. For the occasion, Queen Camilla wore a long-sleeved dress with floral design details by Fiona Clare and a blue wool coat by Anna Valentine.
Great look for Q Camilla. I like this coat a lot, also nice summer dress. A visit to the Emerald Island, must be beautiful there when the sun shines.

I'm glade she finally took the coat off to show her colourful but muted flower print dress. Its looks good on her and fits her well. I like it alot
ReplyDeleteAgree !!
DeleteI loved this dress of Camilla's when she wore it twice before some years ago, and I still like it. The fabric print is beautiful.

Camilla looks suitably dressed for damp and not very warm weather! I like the colour of her coat, and she has a see-through umbrella, like Queen Elizabeth would use, so people could still see her. It is unusual to see her in a dress with a flowery pattern - a nice change!
ReplyDeleteThe dancers in picture 2 are performing Irish tap dancing, which involves keeping the upper body still and complex movements of the legs and feet. There used to be a show called Riverdance, which was very popular at one time in the UK; it featured this type of dance.
Loving the colourful costumes in pic 4! Kia
This is a lovely coat, looks warm and snug. Her dress looks pretty, not a fan so much of the color of her shoes. Regardless the Queen looks splendid.
ReplyDeleteYes, she could afford the same comfortable style in different colours ... the shoe colour is really quite disturbing with all those flowers.
DeleteÉlégant manteau bleu pâle mais la robe à motifs fleuris déjà portée n’arrive pas à avoir mon aval ; désolée, elle me rappelle le papier peint de chez ma grand-mère !
ReplyDeleteHer Majesty Queen Camilla - wunderful warm Person. Beautiful dresden and Coat.
ReplyDeleteI like the soft, pale blue color of her coat. The fabric looks very luxurious. I also like that it is a departure from her customary style with the zipper in front without a defined waist. I think the dress underneath is horrible. It has her traditional front, no defined waist. In my humble opinion, the print is very mumsy. The background color is not very flattering next to her complexion and hair color. I like the style of her shoes, but the colors do not compliment anything.

ReplyDelete@14:13 "mumsy": what do you mean? All mums? which mums? or is it a general judgement about all mums, do all mums have the same (bad?) taste in clothing? - Not nice when women talk about other women in such a deprecating way. I am sure you could tell us what you mean without necessarily talking about "mums".
Deleteif you cant be mumsy in your late seventies im not sure when you can be
DeleteLove the coat…beautiful pale blue and looks very well made and high end. The dress is a disappointment under such a luxurious coat, but I do like the shoes.
ReplyDeleteLe manteau est magnifique
ReplyDeleteQuant à la robe à mon goût elle fait chemise de nuit
Froufrou
Love the coat (way to go outside her boring comfort zone!) not so much the busy pattern of her dress.
ReplyDeleteI like Q. Camilla in this soft light blue/greyish coat. So much better than the other coats she wore lately. What I don't like is the dress she is wearing underneath. The print reminds me of old wall wallpaper or fabrics by Laura Ashley which were used in the past for a sleeping room.
ReplyDeleteI like the dress and the bodhrans. I had to look twice at the coat… I thought she had accidentally wandered out in her bathrobe. ~J
ReplyDeleteThe Queen looks very elegant and I love the shoes.
ReplyDeleteShe's gone from 'granny' to 'mumsy' so she must doing something right in someones opinion
ReplyDeleteLove the turquiose shamrock brooch which belonged to queen elizabeth
ReplyDeleteThe coat looks good ,the dress is a granny dress. She looked good at the Chelsea flower show, every so often she has a hiatus, At one of the walkabouts a seagull pooped on the King how lucky is he.(Tara)
