There were a lot of stunning clothing choices this week, there were also some that weren't so great. Let's take a look at the fashion choices this week.
We'll start with Queen Mathilde of Belgium;

Oh Queen Mathilde! What were you thinking with the orange pants suit? Whoever dresses you should be fired. You look like you just walked out of prison! The second outfit is much nicer. I love the colours, and the red pumps are a great addition.
What about Crown Princess Mary of Denmark? Let's see if she fared better than our Belgian Queen.

Princess Mary's pink outfit for the hospital opening is cute. It suits her colouring and is great for a day time event. I think it might be a bit childish, and would give it about a 6/10. I really like the outfit she wore to the Science Museum. Simple white bell bottoms, black top and a navy jacket. It looks great and she's dressed for the occasion, knowing that she'll be sitting on the ground playing with little kids. Princess Mary must be digging pink this week as she is sporting a pink top in the third picture. I like the rainbow skirt, it's something a little different. It shouldn't work with the top, but it does.
Next on parade we have Queen Rania of Jordan.
I love both these outfits! Princess Mary, please take notes. This is how pink should be worn. That pink and white ensemble is stunning. The blue dress is also really nice, the addition of black flats is nice and breaks the colour.
Over in Monaco Princess Charlene attended the tennis and wore this outfit

She's got a bit of a sailor look going on here with the stripes, navy blue and red heels. It looks good though, and comfortable. Just what you would want to wear at a day of tennis. The bright red lipstick and matching shoes makes the outfit and adds a bit of oomph to the outfit. Nice look.
Not far away in Spain Queen Letizia never fails to stun in her outfits. Her sense of style is almost effortless and rarely wrong.

We saw the lovely Queen of Spain in a number of outfits this week let go one by one;
1). The first outfit is what Letizia wore to greet the President of Portugal. It's a nice outfit, maybe a little drab. Then again she is meeting a dignitary. I love the subtle change in shade of her shoes. The outfit certainly suits her.
2). In the evening Queen Letizia wore the blue dress with polka dots. I like this for a gala evening as it reminds me of the night sky. It suits the Queen and matches her husband's sash, as well as complimenting her own. It's not to over top either, I think it works well for this event.
3). The black number is cute. Simple, yet effective. The pattern on the skirt gives it something extra as does the curl in her hair. Good choice.
4). I love Letizia's jump suit! It's a vert modern fashion choice, yet it's business like and works for presenting literature awards. The sling back shoes are cute and work nicely.
5). This last outfit is one of my favourites. I think the colour is stunning and suits Letizia. The floral patterns are gorgeous. It's a pretty outfit, casual, yet formal at the same time.
In The Netherlands Queen Maxima was channeling her inner genie with this outfit.

The colour suits Maxima, but the outfit is not her best. It looks like over sized pyjamas. Sorry Maxima, you struck out.
In Sweden Princess Sofia wore this stunning outfit;

I think this is a dress every girl would imagine a princess wearing. Sofia looks stunning in this black dress with A line skirt. The only change I would make is maybe do something with her hair, or add a coloured clutch. Something to break all the black.
Finally we reach the United Kingdom. With the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting taking place we got to see a lot of different fashion choices from various royals. We'll look at the UK in two parts. The first being during the week, and the second dedicated to the fashion at Queen Elizabeth's 92nd birthday concert.

1). Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall donned this comfortable looking Grey dress. It's age appropriate and dances the line between casual and not so casual. I give my tick of approval.
2). Meghan Markle has been criticised a lot for her fashion choices as a member of the royal family. This one in particular was noticed as she i). draped her jack over her shoulders, which is a messy look, ii). wore a over the front bag rather than a clutch and iii). Once inside took off the jacket which is a no-no for Royals. In addition to this people have stated the outfit itself was just simply inappropriate. My opinion, I like it. She is attending a youth conference and this outfit is youthful. It might not be traditional, but it's cute and playful which is what she wants the youth to see.
3). With her hair out and growing long Sophie, Countess of Wessex is almost unrecognisable. The Queen's daughter-in-law usually favours an up do. The dress is pretty and well suited for a visit to the Botanical Gardens. Nothing wrong here.
4). Another Meghan Markle ensemble. This time she kept the jacket on, though still no clutch. I love this outfit, it's simple and pretty. It also looks like a dress anybody could wear rather than something completely unattainable by the average person. Good job Meghan!
Now on to what was worn at the birthday bash!

1). Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall wore this striking purple dress. The colour is absoloutely gorgeous. The black heels and necklace make the dress stand out.
2). Meghan Markle went with a simple black dress and navy blue shoes. Perfect for the occasion, though I thought she would've worn something that stood out a bit more. My guess is she didn't want to take the attention away from The Queen and the other royal family members.
3). A cure outfit from Princess Eugnie of York. Maybe a touch to casual for the event. Nonetheless I like it and she looks great.
4). Lady Louise Windsor, the teenage granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth. A simple navy blue dress with nude heels. Perfect for the event and shows she has a sensible dress choice. She looks lovely, and lady like.
5). Sophie, Countess of Wessex looks stunning in this pants ensemble. The scarf gives it some colour and dresses it up. I wouldn't have expected something so daring of Sophie, but she is rocking it.
6). A simple silver dress from Princess Anne, The Princess Royal paired with black heels. I think it looks nice, and it works for a concert, but I think she could've added a bit more glitz and glam.

7). Birgitte, Duchess of Gloucester looks stunning. The metallic Red-Orange dress just stands out and takes control of the room. I would've gone with black shoes, but the nude ones The Duchess is wearing are fine as well.
8). Marie, Princess Michael of Kent looks lovely in a black dress with a knee high split. The wide cardigan gives it a dressier look. Classic black & white, works every time.
9). Finally, Princess Alexandra, The Honourable Lady Ogilvy. She is absoloutely adorable. I love the top I think it's a beautiful colour. Unfortunately The outfit together doesn't match
