My Royal Coverage Doesn’t Stop at the House of Windsor

Sometimes I like to dabble in continental royalty.  I know.  Pick that jaw up off the floor.

Queen Maxima of the Netherlands, she-who-is-so-chic and hails from Argentina, has been King Willem-Alexander‘s consort since April 30th, 2013, when his mother (Princess Beatrix) abdicated in favor of her son.

 

The elegance:

 

The diplomacy:

 

The jewelry:

 

The sportsmanship:

 

The deference (although not as frequently these days. Queen trumps Princess):

 

The jewelry again:

 

The humor:

 

The Royal Wedding:

 

Almost Queen:

 

 

Tah Dah!

 

 

Also, Willem-Alexander looks like my dad. Does that make me…royalty?
