    As the wife of a junior prince ("junior" being here not a matter of age, but of position in the line of succession to the throne), probably Princess Sofia will be (or has already been?) granted the Swedish Order of the Polar Star (ocean-blue sash with yellow edges), and not the Seraphim Order (pale blue sash). Princess Lilian, who was in a similar situation as Sofia, had to wait until the mid-1990s to receive the Seraphim Order.

    Mixing the green colours of the emeralds and the blue main colour of the Order of the Polar Star might not be easy, because green and blue do not combine very well. But I guess that the new Princess will cleverly manage to combine them successfully anyway... And of course, she will probably be granted the possibility to wear other tiaras than her wedding tiara!
