  1. I think queen Sylvia is one of the best dressed royal ladies, I just always thought this white hat looks like an old world nurses cap from the front!

    Not keen on the double bebreasted suit. The king usually looks so polished and this style do not give the look. The only royal I feel that looks good in this style jacket is the Duke of Edinburgh, perhaps because he is so tall and slim.
    The Queen lovely as usual.
