Royal Hats 
The Spanish wedding gave us many beautiful hats and I especially like the red hat worn by the groom’s mother. I was delighted to see Princess Aiko wearing a very pretty peach cloche. She looked very happy and was obviously ready for spring.
So very happy you are back!
Like both of Mary’s fedoras. I don’t think she ever puts a foot wrong!
The grooms mother looked beautiful. Love her headpiece. Her pearls are gorgeous.
Mary’s fedora at the Deer Park – looks rather battered.
I think altering the neckline of the wedding dress was a mistake – it looked better before. I think the sleeves have been altered as well – they seem much higher and puffy before. The dress, oddly enough, looks more dated after these alterations.
The groom’s mother, Casilda Martínez-Almeida, wore a vibrant headpiece
