    I can't believe I am saying this, but the gold tiara and necklace actually look good with the dress. Much better than the canary yellow/"Big Bird" dress she has worn with the paure before. This time it doesn't offend my eyes. Sadly the Crown Princess' evening dress did that for me. Even the beautiful amethysts couldn't redeem that sartorial choice. It needs to be burned.
