Happy Birthday to our Queen Elizabeth II
That is beautiful; both photo and baby.Prince Alexander's first picture, taken by his father.

Some pics from President Obama and the First Lady's visit to the UK. Prince George is too cute for words.
Indeed, their home looks gracious but so welcoming and comfortable. And is that a stuffed toy on the large ottoman between the couches? Too cute!
I wish Mrs Obama would realize that busy prints don't photograph well. She looks messy next to the Queen's suit.
She described how the queen had had her grandchildren over for dinner. “And she said to me that she found it really difficult,” Lady Elizabeth said, “because they didn’t really know how to talk each other. And she said, ‘I suppose it’s because they’re always getting up and down and helping somebody and putting something in a dishwasher or whatever they’re doing, because they don’t have enough staff.’”
Their "assistants" often ask what visitors will wear on occasions such as this; so that photographs will coordinate well.Interesting that Mrs Obama's dress matches Prince Philip's tie and Mr Obama's tie matches th Queen's suit.
She was under pressure to wear something "important" (which usually means detailed/busy); since she was criticized for wearing a JCrew dress and cardigan (too ordinary) during her last visit to the UK!It wasn't that I hated the dress, just that in photos it looks "busy".
I missed that memo. Important to me means well-constructive, distinctive. It wouldn't occur to me that it means busy.She was under pressure to wear something "important" (which usually means detailed/busy)!
I'm intrigued by their "coffee table" which looks cushioned. I suppose it can double as extra seating at a party?
This is hilarious. Well done to all involved (did Prince Harry put them up to it?)

She looks fab, really natural.Kate will appear of the cover of Vogue for the first time.
