A big surprise from Japan this week when Emperor Akihito’s wish to abdicate was revealed. There don’t appear to be any concrete plans for a handover to Crown Prince Naruhito but it’s big news nonetheless (BBC)

Royal Hats 
Thanks for bringing us the latest Royal Imperial news HatQueen. I was amazed that the Emperor of Japan would consider abdicating. The Royal children look great. Sheikha Mozah’s hat looks very summery and her surroundings are beautiful.
Love King Carl in his Fedora, very dapper! Princess Michael’s straw visor looks good on a summer day. Danish and Swedish Children are adorable!
