Stunning portrait 

[Lady Alice]

I really like this portrait because not only is it stunning at first glance, but once you look over a high definition version, you can see all the small imperfections - stray hair here, minor skin stuff there, and so forth - but it adds to the charm, not detracting from it. The real princess, flaws and all. Does anyone understand what I'm getting at?

I think so. So often photo shop removes all the imperfections and leaves this "perfect" but fake and false person behind. It is almost like it wipes away the humanity of the subject.
With this portrait leaving the stray hairs, skin imperfections and less than perfect appearance leaves Madeleine her humanity. By leaving in the imperfections we are given a portrait of a beautiful woman that we recognize, whether consciously or unconsciously, that we feel we can relate to.

I didn't know that Madeleine's modern Fringe tiara was changed over time, adding and omitting the second diamond row.

Interesting, she seemed to have more wrinkles in her early twenties than now.  Well, as long as she doesn't go the same road like her mother.

Madeleine posted this on Facebook:

"Congratulations Princess Mabel of Orange-Nassau for your work to end child brides around the globe" ‪#‎girlsnotbrides‬
http://www.girlsnotbrides.org/

On Monday Madeleine used the account to pay attention to another London-princess who work with difficult issues related to children, namely, Princess Mabel of the Netherlands.
London-based Mabel has for years worked with the campaign "Girls Not Brides" working against child marriage and for the girls to have a safe childhood.

It's silly that they count events like this as work (not just for her but for pretty much all royals) IMO.

Odds shes at Snakes Te Deum?

Especially when it's your dad's birthday. Birthday celebrations shouldn't count as work unless you're baking the cake, etc.

A New wonderful official picture of Madde has been finally added to her profile on the court website. I think it was taken the day she hosted the sick children

This portrait is beautiful.   She's almost shinning/sparkling in this shade of sky blue !

Madeleine was SO tan when she was younger, yet her skin still looks youthful now. I wonder if most of it was spray tans?

Perfect day to take a new picture.....she looked so pretty and glowing that day.

I'm such a Madde sugar and am not even ashamed of it.

Probably!

Super tanned skin was the fashion back in the early 2000s. I've noticed the people who got solarium tans are really seeing the effects of it in their skin now (like my cousin) while those who simply got spray tans or didn't tan at all (me....my mother wouldn't let me, and I'm so grateful for that now!) aren't showing the signs of wrinkles and skin damage the others are.

At old pictures she seemed to have more wrinkles than now. IMVHO she had some work done.
