Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice of York in Germany

Princess sisters, Beatrice and Eugenie of York took a two day tour of Germany. They visited to promote the Great Campaign a global initative to attract visitors, business, and students to the United Kingdom. Beatrice made a lovely speech as well.

Both Beatrice and Eugenie were praised for their choice of outfits. I must say, Beatrice looks spectacular in that green dress!

The same day, in the evening, they had a dinner (I think - I'm not good with the information). Beatrice wore a repeat Erdem dress that she wore last year which I really loved.

The next day, Beatrice and Eugenie went to Hanover, Germany. They visited a kindergarten (I'm very sure), where this cute picture was taken:

Worst of 2012 - Accessories: Everything

Surprisingly, I found out that I hardly have anything on the worst accessories list. So, we're going to start the outfits early!

Jewelry

Earrings

 The gold earrings that the Duchess of Cambridge wore aren't my favourites. I love pearls but the design of Catherine's earrings are weird. The red earrings that Catherine wore are also not my favourite. The black earrings that Crown Princess Mette-Marit have a really weird design and it's made of black material.

Tiaras

 (Left to right: Carina Axxelson, Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece, Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, and Princess Benedikte)

 (Left to right: Princess Martha Louise of Norway and Queen Silvia of Sweden)

 The tiara that Carina wears (which is all the time) is my all time, least favourite! The design is tacky, just spikes, and diamonds on top. While, for sme reason, I don't like the diamond spike tiara that looks like tiara that Queen Elizabeth has. The tiara that Victoria wore is... I don't even know what that is! The tiara that Benedikte wears is same as Carina's it's tacky. Martha Louise's looks childish, she needs a better one. Silvia's tiara isn't bad, the prongs are the bad part of it.

 Hats

(From left to right: Queen Margrethe of Denmark, Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden, Zara Phillips (UK))

 (From Left to Right: Queen Silvia of Sweden, Princess Beatrice of York)

 If I critisize all of these, it will take forever, so I'll just say one reason:
Astrid: Too large and harry. Mathilde: They look like a series of plates on her head. Mette-Marit #1: It's a turban. Mette-Marit #2: It's a headband, just a headband with a ribbon! Margrethe: It's like a compas with the points... Victoria: It's self-explanitory. Zara: Some people have said it looks like an octopus. Silvia #1: Too much going on. Silvia #2: See #1. Beatrice: The weird colour.

Hair

Mette-Marit's hair does not go with her tiny, tiny, tiny tiara. From this angle, Catherine's hair looks nice. However, when you look in the front: she may as well put her bangs in front of her face, they covered her very nice eyes.

Random Royal News: The 3rd Wedding of the Year

On May 26, 2012 in Stein, Germany; Charles Alexander Graf von Faber-Castell married Melissa Eliyesil. They met in New York in 2009, when she studied at the Parsons, The New School for Design. He studied at the Columbia Business School. They married civically in September of 2011.

Her dress was designed by Italian designer, Roberto Cavalli. The Dress was made of Silk (I’m guessing), it has lace from the waist up, a square neckline, and see through shoulder sleeves.

                   

The Dress I say is just gorgeous. I love lace, and silk together, an up-do, pearl earrings, a small bouquet like that, black hair with a lace veil – all around this might be the best wedding dress of the year!  

I think they make such a cute couple together!

Wedding Wednesday: A German Wedding

Another royal wedding was held over the weekend in Germany: Princess Felipa of Bavaria married Christian Dienst at the fantastic Pilgrimmage Church of Wies (or Wieskirche). Thanks to Royal Order of Satorial Splendor for the pictures!

Felipa is one of the children of Prince Leopold of Bavaria and his wife, Princess Ursula. We see his royal side at some of the larger gatherings (such as the Prince and Princess of Monaco's wedding).

The princess married her film producer beau in a gown from Natascha Müllerschön. It featured a white strapless base with a lace overlay and a cathedral veil. She arrived with the veil drawn up and over her family's tall diamond sunburst-style tiara. The tiara is usually worn by the bride's mother and has also been spotted on her sister-in-law Princess Anna.
