Programming Note: Holiday Hiatus!

We'll be on semi-hiatus for about a week, but we will have Christmas gatherings to discuss, so tune back in this weekend for that.

In the mean time: Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a soon-to-be Happy New Year to you all! I wish you all the sparkly presents your heart desires.

The blog will return on Sunday with another round of tidbits!

I leave you with the latest in our series of new sovereign introductory visits - Felipe and Letizia visiting Italy yesterday. The repeated Varela suit is not too bad, though I'd take an evening stroll in Rome over it any day.

The blog is taking a short break for the rest of the week. We'll return on Monday.

Those of you that would like to discuss royal book recommendations, keep scrolling. If you'd like to discuss other topics, feel free to use this post!

Programming Note: New Year, New Changes!

The new year is bringing a few changes to our regular weekly features! The reasons for these switches are plentiful, from a simple need to freshen things up to the fact that this site is one I put together in varying amounts of free time, and on and on. Here's what's up:

• The Weekly Royal Fashion Awards posts are being replaced by Royal Outfit of the Day posts (which will occur daily, on week days). These will include current events obviously, but can also include past events. And while you can bet on seeing our regular leading ladies from the weekly posts, there will be plenty of room for others.
• Wedding Wednesdays and Flashback Fridays are retired for the time being. That's not to say that I might not throw one in for a special occasion here and there, but they will no longer be regular weekly features. Tiara Thursdays will continue on as usual.

And that's it! Thanks, as always, for reading and for understanding the need for occasional change.

Next week is a holiday week in my part of the world (Happy Thanksgiving, American readers!), and I'm making it a holiday week for the blog too. We'll return the week of the 2nd with our usual shenanigans plus the end to your ultimate tiara collection.

Until then, allow me to leave you with this video treat:

Video, above

This is a documentary on British royal weddings made in the run-up to William and Kate's wedding. There's not much new here, fact-wise, but what makes it fun are the video gems on display - including a rare look at the 1947 wedding of Princess Elizabeth and Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten in color! Delightful.

Enjoy, and we'll return in a week!
