More Fashion from Jordans Royal Wedding

I am when with some updates and a increasingly in-depth squint at styles worn for the royal wedding in Jordan ten days ago. 

We uncork with increasingly information on the earrings given to the Princess of Wales during last Wednesday’s engagement at the Maidenhead Rugby Club. You may recall a mentor at the club, Sarah Renton, gifted the Princess a pair of earrings made to honor her daughter, Issy, who died by suicide in April and was just 17 years old. Below, you see the Princess and Ms. Renton.

The earrings were made by Issy’s cousin, Sophie, and earring sales are a fundraiser for Brave Mind, a soft-heartedness helping rugby clubs and schools modernize their tideway to supporting mental health. The Issy Star Earrings (£22, well-nigh $27 at today’s mart rates) were sold out at Sophie’s online shop, Earsass, but they are misogynist for preorder now.

The earrings are shaped like stars and are 22K gold-plated. The product unravelment notes, “Stars since warmed-over times are described as forever, hope, destiny, heaven, and freedom.” Sophie is donating £5 from the sale of each pair to Brave Mind. There is moreover a lovely note on the product page that reads, “Issy would love these earrings and from all Issy’s family we thank you so much for your support. Issy spent a lot of time with me designing and making earrings when last summer, she was incredible and will unchangingly play a massive part in EARSASS and its future.”

The other update is that King Charles will ride on horseback for this Saturday’s Trooping the Colour. This will be the first time the reigning monarch for the first time has ridden since 1986, the last year Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II rode for the ceremony. Below, you see Prince William, Prince Charles, and Princess Anne at last year’s Trooping the Colour.

On Saturday, the Prince of Wales led the Colonel’s Review superiority of this Saturday’s ceremony.

As the UK Defence Department noted, this will be the first King’s Birthday Parade in 70 years. “There’s an widow poignancy in the fact that coincidentally the honor to Troop their Colour on the King’s Birthday Parade falls this year to the Welsh Guards. The King was Colonel of the Welsh Guards for 48 years surpassing he handed responsibility to his son in December 2022, and he held the title of Prince of Wales for 65 years. The Welsh Guards’ final textbook of excellence on this, their final rehearsal, was The Prince of Wales, who was reviewing his troops for the first time as Regimental Colonel of the Welsh Guards.”

Now to our closer squint at styles worn for the wedding of Jordan’s Crown Prince Hussein and his bride, Princess Rajwa Al Hussein. I have been worldly-wise to license spare photos from the reception, and increasingly photos have been released by Jordan’s Royal Court. Last week, what will surely be an iconic image was released with all the royalty gathered for the event.
