@Bird mama since she usually has her beautiful pins on her coat, i wonder who minds it when she takes it off to socialize!!!

@Peaches McPhee  That was my thought also....the dramatic swelling.  There is lymphatic drainage massage that is suppose to help.  It looks painful.

I wonder if that is lymphoma. I once knew someone with that.  She got bigger toward her feet.  She looked like a triangle. Horrible disease.

I don't recall the Queen wearing such a vivid blue. I love it! It also looks good on me, so I might be a little partial. Heart

Royal blue suits her so well. That pin is amazing, I'm going to look it up.

It's Queen Mary's thistle brooch. Queen Elizabeth has worn it once before in Scotland.

Strive for respect instead of attention. It lasts longer.

She's also wearing it with this dress but you can't see it as well

That picture of the Queen and Charles is wonderful!  They are in the end just  people and family like the rest of us.  It's a beautiful mother and child moment caught in a photo.
