Silvia's 75th Birthday: December 23

[Lady Adelaide]

Slight change of topic, but what's everyone's favourite tiara look from Silvia?
I love the outfit she wore for the state visit to Britain and the nobel look where she had red drops in her hair

I think Silvia is like Camilla; she can rock most tiaras. They all look good on her. But I do love the Leuchtenberg set on her:

The court released a new photo for Silvia's birthday today

I love this B&W image  of her. She is lovely and I do the grandchildren have brought her a sense of fulfillment  and unconditional love for the first time.  She paid a high price to be the Queen.

She looks stunning with and without tiaras. QS transmits jewels her own brightness and beauty - and they own some magnificent pieces.

Photos of Vic, CP, Madeleine and their families arriving at the castle to attend the private celebration. Among CG's sister, only Christina is there.
Svensk Damtidning also has written about a "girl dinner" that Victoria, Madeleine and Sofia had arranged at Vinkällaren Grappe. There were 25 Silvia's closest friends.

















SVT published the seminar which was held for the Queen's birthday in the previous day

It is beautiful to see how all the members of the family are moved. Unfortunately, I was able to find on Instagram only the fragments of CP's speech; however, you can see the speeches and the whole ceremony on SVT.

Beautiful photos! All of her children had tears, she was so touched by their speaches and even CG was in tears! Maybe he has feelings and he appreciates his wife after all!
Great photos.

That look on Oscars face

Vic should steer clear of booties when she’s wearing a dress.  Not the most flattering look.  If she’s going to wear boots at all, a tall pair would look better.  Those kids though - they all look like a bundle of energy haha.

I enjoy and admire the way this Royal Family share these occasions with their fellow citizens, openly and naturally. I remember Vic and Dan's wedding was broadcast in full, from the very beginning, throughout the ceremony and even the meal and speeches,up to the end. They have the right to privacy but I think taxpayers have the right to witness some special events.

Sofia's parents were at the castle, too

Sofia's parents were at the castle, too

Why??!

[Thistle]

Because they were invited to the party

I do hope Daniel's parents and Chris mom were also invited.
