Swedish Royals Attend Umeå Opening

The northern Swedish city of Umeå, appointed the 2014 European Capital of Culture 2014, welcomed Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel and Princess Estelle to opening weekend of the festival yesterday. The royal trio stayed warm at the outdoor event in warm wool hats. Princess Estelle, as usual, looked  adorable in her cable-knit hat with pom pom.
