Why Queen Camilla’s Coronation Crown Is Already Sparking ControversyMay 06, 2023 at 10:50AMCamilla, the Queen Consort, will be wearing Queen Mary’s crown for King Charles’s coronation on May 6, 2023. According to Buckingham Palace, the accessory has been removed from display at the Tower of London for modification work, marking the first time a Queen Consort’s crown has been re-used since the 18th century.

No One Noticed Queen Elizabeth’s Wardrobe Malfunction During Her CoronationMay 06, 2023 at 10:40AMWhile we can only imagine what it must have been like for Queen Elizabeth II on her coronation day in 1953, she actually didn’t make it sound very pleasant when she shared memories of the event in a rare interview with BBC from 2018. After an apparently bumpy ride in her gold carriage, the late British sovereign almost had a wardrobe malfunction because of her dress, and even risked breaking her neck because of her heavy crown. For her special day, Queen Elizabeth’s dress was designed by British fashion designer Norman Hartnell. It was made of white satin, embroidered in gold and silver thread with the emblems of the UK and the Commonwealth, and decorated with pearls. While absolutely beautiful, the gown was, as it turns out, not very practical.…

This $30 Old Navy Linen Minidress Is the Ultimate Dupe For High-End VersionsMay 05, 2023 at 07:30PMI’ve never been much of a minidress person.
