I was looking at the photos on the link provided below at the Household Cavalry's garden party earlier this week and notices a photo of The Hon. Annabel Whitehead, Lady-in-Waiting to HM the Queen (and, I beleive, Formerly of HRH Princess Margaret) behind the members of the RF during playing of the national anthem.
I bring this up because (and here is the jewelery link), I also saw some discussions stating that people thought that Mrs. Whitehead was Princess Alexandra because she was wearing the Royal Family Order (RFO) of George VI.
This of course is not a RFO, but her Lady-in-Waiting Badge which is worn when on duty.
Here is a colour close-up of the Mistress of the Robes badge and, in black and white, the L-in-W Badge which is, in fact, on a pink watered ribbon.
The M-of-the-R badge causes some misconceptions as well in that many people think that the Duchesses of Devonshire and Grafton have received QEII's Royal Family Order because of the similar colouring of the badge and the Order (i.e yellow)
