to 72 years ago today and a young princess performing in a pantomime at Windsor Castle with her younger sister.
The young Queen Elizabeth in a different setting, with a very subdued head covering, but from about the same time: http://lexanteinternet.blogspot.com/2012/07/queen-elizabeth-ii-in-canada.html
I agree with you jamiemid about the queen and Margaret’ s looks. It kinda reminds me of CP Victoria and Princess Madeleine. Both pretty, but Mads a little prettier. The second hat reminds of Empress Michiko’ s hats.
She looks so young and beautiful. I am astonished at how much she resembles the Queen Mother in the first picture became I always thought she looked more like Queen Mary, especially as she got older. Regardless of whom she looks like, she is still a very pretty woman. When they were younger, Princess Margaret was always known as the pretty one , but I think the Queen more than held her own.
