What excellent ideas, particularly the tiara as necklace, which we know was intended in its design, via Roberts.
--Previous Message-- : Nellie, when you next speak with HM, please : ask her to wear the Kent amethysts more, and : perhaps encourage her to let us see the : GGB&I tiara in it's rumored necklace : form.....thanks!!!! : : --Previous Message-- : : Oh yes. The Queen has been heeding my : advice for some years now. : (Oh dear) : : --Previous Message-- : Whether its in honour of the French, the : fallen or memory of her mother - or all : three, its clear that HM (under some : guidance ?! (Nellie )) has been wearing : special jewels over these three days. : : : : --Previous Message-- : i agree wholeheartedly......we : "normal" folks wear things like : scarves, jackets, watches, or hats that : belonged to our loved ones who have gone on : as a token of our love and to honor and : remember them....but HM has these beautiful : jewels instead of the more humble items i : mentioned above.....it's often been said : that HM isn't overly fond of wearing jewelry : but sees it as a symbol of the monarchy and : a required trapping of her position....even : more reason for her to use them in memory of : her mother and others....but whatever the : reason she chooses certain pieces, i for : one, am ecstatic of her recent choices!! : : --Previous Message-- : Her Majesty has given jewel lovers a feast : during her trip to France. : I am particularly taken by the fact that she : choose to wear the Coronation necklace and : earrings to the State banquet in Paris. It : is not often that HM wears these jewels, and : I suspect she does not do so to impress, : fashion wise. I suspect that her decision to : wear these jewels is a tribute to the : military personnel who took part in D-Day, a : day on which so many paid the ultimate : sacrifice. What do others think? : : : : : : : : : :
