According to my sources, she needs to wear very bright colors so she can be visible from far, and a violet hat would have that effect. Also, she has a very simple personal/private style (some people would call it dowdy), so she basically lets the royal stylists pick out her public clothes.
If I were her, I'd be bringing a lot of jewellery out of the safes and onto my neck
, and I'd be attending all the British collections to choose next season's clothes. She is one of the richest women in the world, after all, so why not encourage the local fashion industry? and, while we're at it, how about a smile once in a while? I mean, the Pope wears Gucci shoes, jewels, embroidered gowns, hats, and great new teeth, so why shouldn't she?
I am kidding...
