  1. The double lapel is very interesting, not sure about the big grommets but overall a very nice suit. Lovely shade of gray.

    1. Checked her out again after reading your comment. Re the grommet, what I find a strange design decision is gold with quite a dead grey. Silver would have worked in much better - or gold with another colour it complements eg navy or burgundy

  2. Not keen on the bubble / balloon pants, yes very stylish for a young lady, other that it is in fashion now, I don’t see it as a nice silhouette, especially with those shoes with straps.

    1. Ah the lady at the back? Yes the trousers are a bit wild, might look ok with some cute sneakers. They don’t look classic enough to go past one season.

  3. Oh, she looks smashing! I love this outfit. The Wool blazer, I love this, the style, shape and design. The collar is so interesting and different, very eye catching as is the clasp at the waist, the belt area, love! The pants are a good fit and flow well with the blazer. Up close her necklaces are very interesting, she is wearing, a couple of beautiful cross pendants. She looks very elegant.

  4. I know that many bloggers will disagree, but one aspect of the queen‘s sartorial
    approach has been on my mind for a long time and I wish to offer my views. I might be wrong, but practically every time I see queen Sofia, I see a new garment, which I find very difficult to understand in view of the need to rewear for a variety of sound reasons. In fact, this aspect irritates me more and more. The comments of 20:14 are also interesting, another pertinent argument.
