Sadly much of the personal belongings of the Yugoslav Royal Family were either stolen by the Nazi Regime, which occupied Yugoslavia from 1941 to 1945, or else was either confiscated or stolen by Tito´s Communist after the second world war. One of the beautiful pieces that was hidden from the communists was this diadem of the late Queen Maria. It was loaned to Her Royal Highness Princess Brigitta Karadjordjevic for the occasion of an official celebration in Remembrance of the late Queen.

Mantilla Diva: Queen Sofia of Spain Yesterday, King Juan Carlos of Spain officially handed over his crown, throne, title...you get it, to his son Felipe. Felipe is now Felipe VI King of Spain. The official ceremony was televised live on BBC World News and yes, I was up until 2 AM PST watching it! Belted Fashionista: Queen Sofia during the Abdication Ceremony--with her husband, King Juan Carlos I and son, the new King Felipe VI In terms of Abdication Ceremonies and Handing-over-a-Crown, it was rather low-key, in accordance to the fact that Spain has recently hit some difficult economic times and well, it wouldn't be kosher for people to be talking about the $100,000+ Haute Couture being worn and all the Too Mucheey being spent (at the Spanish tax payers expense) on a grand affair. It was still grand but with a lower-case "g". In light of this "passing the torch" to the younger generation, I wanted to pay a Style Homage to the older, and particularly, Queen Sofia, the Queen Mother. Doña Sofia has always been a style icon in my eyes and here, I want to pay tribute to this. Let's begin with her chartreuse satin suit worn at yesterday's official Ceremony Welcoming the new King of Spain. Queen Sofia wore this silk taffeta suit with three-quarter sleeves, high neck. It was austere, elegant and perfect. What I especially liked was the very Retro 60's back button detail:  Buttoned Queen Mother: Queen Sofia of Spain--in the the balcony of the Palace, greeting the "masses" welcoming the newly crowned King of Spain (fourth from left) Queen Sofia 1960's I love this look from the then-Princess of Greece and Denmark, Sophia. Donning a mink shawl, pearls, silk chiffon dress, hat and elbow-length white gloves, she looks every bit a future queen...or Hollywood royalty. The Wedding: In 1962, the Greece-born Princess Sophia of German-Danish descent wed Infante Juan Carlos in Greece wearing a Jean Dessès Haute Couture custom wedding gown with (as you can see) a very, very long royal-worthy train. The silk satin  and lace veiled gown would be estimated at costing over $100,000 in the 21st Century Haute Couture pricing standards. The wedding was attended by many Euro royals at the time and occurred at a Catholic church even though she was Greek Orthodox. Naturally, Sofia converted to Roman Catholicism to become more palatable to Roman Catholic Spain. Also, her Greek name of Sophia became "Latinized" to then become Sofia. 1970's: During her first official appearance as Queen of Spain in 1975--Sofia wore a teal coat and gown inn an A-line silhouette with gold trim, long sleeves and black lace Mantilla. She looked every bit a Couture Queen alongside her husband, King Juan Carlos I and children (future King Felipe standing in between them with his sister). Mantilla Queen: As the Queen of Spain, Sofia wore the Spanish headdress of a peineta (hair-comb) and mantilla (lace fabric draped over the headdress). And she wore it well. Even though among many "inside social circles", she was still considered the "German Queen", she made sure to wear this iconic Spanish fashion accessory. Here are some of the best Queen Sofia Mantilla fashion moments: Polka Dot Sevillana Fashion Queen:  Queen Sofia never met a polka dot she did not like...case in point... Sevillana Fab: Queen Sofia With Pope John Paul II (left) and in Valentino Haute Couture polka-dot red-and-white gown Sofia: The Boxy Suit Queen Queen Sofia loves a boxy-cut suit. Especially in a bright color. Skirt lengths are always at the knee and the jackets have notched or portrait collars. Even during the wedding announcement of the future King of Spain (photo above), one can see that Sofia LOVED a boxy-cut suit. Here are some of the best ones from  recent years... Resort Sofia: As much as Queen Sofia loves a tailored boxy suit, there is proof that for "Resort", she also loved a more relaxed look as seen in the photo with her daughter-in-law (and future Queen) Letizia and with Princess Diana in the above pics. Boho Chic Sofia: Queen Sofia, in all her Euro fabulousless, can do Boho Chic perfectly. In the above left photo, she is wearing a multi-printed dress while in Greece at a pre-wedding dinner event for Prince Nikolaos and Princess Tatiana. And on the right photo, Queen Sofia looks Boho-perfect in this Valentino Couture blouson sleeved satin-belted gown (along with Belgium's Queen Fabiola). Gown Queen: Queen Sofia loves a gown, especially for events involving Official Engagements, Dinners and World Leader Dinner Engagements. Here are some of my favorites... Blouson Sleeve Top-and-Column Gown Skirt Printed and Bright Colored Gowns Blushing Queen--Draped and Lace Gown at Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria's Wedding Ball Gown Sofia: Queen Sofia also ADORES a good full shaped ball gown--especially if thre's a drop-waist...here are some examples... Ball Gown Queens: With Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands Queen Sofia with fashion designer Oscar de la Renta and Hillary Clinton--at the Gold Medal Gala of the Queen Sofia Spanish Institute Honoring Hillary Clinton and Antonio Banderas in 2013 Muchisimas Gracias HM Queen Sofia of Spain for being a Style Muse

Here are some images plus a composite of Revells 1/400 scale Ocean Liner Queen Mary Two. Coming in at 1,132 feet long, 135 wide and at a whopping 148,528 tons makes the QMII the largest ocean liner in the world although there are larger cruise ships. This was a nice and a big model to build. The kit costs around $100 Cdn. From Wikipedia" RMS Queen Mary 2 is a transatlantic ocean liner. She was the first major ocean liner built since Queen Elizabeth 2 in 1969, the vessel she succeeded as flagship of the Cunard Line. The ship was named by Queen Elizabeth II in 2004 after the first RMS Queen Mary, completed in 1936. Queen Mary was in turn named after Mary of Teck, consort of King George V. With the retirement of Queen Elizabeth 2 from active duty in 2008, Queen Mary 2 is currently the only transatlantic ocean liner in operation as a liner (in scheduled service between Southampton and New York ), although the ship is often used for cruising, including an annual world cruise.[6][dead link] At the time of her construction in 2003 by Chantiers de l'Atlantique, Queen Mary 2 was the longest, widest and tallest passenger ship ever built, and with her 151,400 gross register tons (GRT), was also the largest. She no longer holds this distinction after the construction of Royal Caribbean International's 154,407 GT Freedom of the Seas in April 2006, which was in turn superseded by the same company's 225,282 GT Oasis of the Seas in October 2009. However, Queen Mary 2 remains the largest ocean liner (as opposed to cruise ship) ever built. Queen Mary 2 was intended primarily to cross the Atlantic Ocean, and was therefore designed differently from many other passenger ships. The ship's final cost was approximately $300,000 US per berth, nearly double that of many contemporary cruise ships. This was due to the size of the ship, the high quality of materials, and that, having been designed as an ocean liner, she required 40% more steel than a standard cruise ship. She has a maximum speed of just over 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph) and a cruising speed of 26 knots (48 km/h; 30 mph), much faster than contemporary cruise ships, such as Oasis of the Seas, which has a top speed of 22.6 knots (41.9 km/h; 26.0 mph). Instead of the diesel-electric configuration found on many ships, Queen Mary 2 uses a CODLAG configuration (Combined diesel-electric and gas) in order to achieve her maximum speed. This uses additional gas turbines to augment the power given by the diesel generators onboard, and allow the ship to reach a higher maximum speed. Queen Mary 2's facilities include fifteen restaurants and bars, five swimming pools, a casino, a ballroom, a theatre, and the first planetarium at sea. There are also kennels onboard, as well as a nursery. Queen Mary 2 is one of the few ships afloat today to have remnants of a class system onboard, most prominently seen in her dining options.

Khadija on Cosmo: Model Khadija Adam on the cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine (US), October 1986 Time for a "SASHES AND TIARAS" Look Back Moment: Khadija Adam. Khadija Adam Ismail was a beauty queen turned Supermodel--and one of my first "muses" when I was a young boy dreaming of becoming a fashion designer. 5' 9" tall Khadija--or Kate as she was called--was crowned Miss Kenya 1984, almost thirty years ago. She then flew to London to compete in the Miss World 1984 pageant and was one of the 15 Semi-Finalists. Khadija was also crowned Continental Queen of Africa, a special title which gave her a trophy plus, of course, "bragging rights". Khadija Adam "Miss Kenya" at Miss World 1984, in her National Costume during the Miss World 1984 Parade of Nations Khadija Adam "Miss Kenya", during the Swimsuit Competition of "Miss World 1984" (with her swimsuit scores) Khadija Adam "Miss Kenya" (far left) getting her "Continental Queen of Africa" trophy at "Miss World 1984" Soon after her "appearance" at the Miss World, she caught the eye of model agents, photographers and the world's top fashion designers, becoming one of the most sought-after models during the late 80's and early 90's. It's not usual for a Beauty Queen to turn into a Supermodel (only a handful have done as such, with Dayana Mendoza, Miss Universe 2008 and Helena Christensen who was Miss Denmark 1986 as standouts). Many girls competing in beauty pageants think that it could be a trampoline for such a career but it usually does not work out since the Beauty pageant world and the Fashion world are two different animals. Khadija went on to model in Milan, Paris, NYC, eventually landing the cover of Cosmopolitan on October 1986. Also, about the same time she began doing all the top runway shows in Milan and Paris, eventually becoming the Muse for the one-and-only Yves Saint Laurent... Saint Laurent who in fact was so moved by the stunning exotic beauty, that he created an entire Haute Couture collection based on her. In addition, Khadija also landed a very lucrative make-up contract with Yves Saint Laurent Cosmetics in 1986. Here is a Photo Gallery of Khadija: the YSL Muse: Khadija continued to model until the early 90's for various other designers, as well as doing countless editorial shoots, eventually leaving the model spotlight. In 1994, she unfortunately lost her fiance, Austrian driver Roland Ratzenberger, who died after a crash. Not much is known about what she's been up to since but I will always remember Khadija as one of my "muses" when I was dreaming of becoming a fashion designer, sketching in my bedroom. I would draw designs with her as the model. Wherever you are Khadija Adam, Thank you for your beauty, elegance and for unknowingly, being one of my first "paper dolls".

Found a document from the early 1900's describing the first day the family who first occupied this farm house on January 22, 1901 (the date that Queen Vitoria died). After all three sons were killed in the First World War the heart-broken parents sold the farm and moved into town. The farm had many owners until late on the century the farm was abandoned and today the only indication that a farm once occupied this land is the abandoned farm house that has stood empty for the past 30 years.
