I was overwhelmingly excited for the royal wedding… Perhaps it was the anticipation of history-making nuptials that caused me to channel my inner royal. What would one wear to meet the queen? To win over a blue blood? To honor tradition and yet still put one’s own twist on a look? I envisioned something like this. A statement headband with tiny pearls, embroidery, and lacy appliques instead of the standard British hat. A vintage frock with dainty diamond buttons that nods politely to the conservative nature of the royals… yet still shows a bit of leg. A bag with a pop of unexpected color. And, of course, ruffles and bows {around the waist and on the toes}. I’d like to think that the Queen would {subtly, of course} express her approval of this look should we ever have the chance {keeping my fingers crossed!} to meet.
