The Queen greets guests at the garden party, which gives Her Majesty the opportunity to meet people from across the UK

Kate's  dress is a favorite Alexander McQueen design; the earrings are from Diana, Princess of Wales,  and the hat is Botterill

it's so nice to see people all spiffed up - out of sweats, jeans and t-shirts!

They seem to be getting Buckingham Palace garden parties out of the way earlier this year.  There are three: last week, this week, and next week. ... Not much earlier - only a week or two - but think it's unusual to have them all in May.  There will be another in Edinburgh in early July.

Yes, this is how we like to see Kate attired.  It's a vast improvement over the garden show's "prairie" style.  Smiley Happy
