Update: Now I get it. Beatrice and Eugenie were emulating these two:
OK. I'll admit it. I was caught up in all the pomp and extravaganza of the royal wedding.
Was totally zonked today because it was imperative to watch it live. Do you know what time the wedding aired here in Swampwitch Time ? The DVR was set to 2:00 a.m., but only because a test of the emergency broadcast system blared two hours later did I awaken just in time to watch the ceremony.
If you watched it, there's no need for me to take the time to give a blow-by-blow account of what we saw.
Except for. . .

I'm talking about what is perched on these girls' heads.
Princess Eugenie:
Don't look now, but a bird appears to be getting ready to slide down your head.
Lady GaGa is now designing for the Royals.
She was high when trying to hem the skirt.
Local thrift shop reports a blue dress was stolen yesterday. Suspect was seen with someone wearing a white hat and a lot of bling on his suit.
Don't look now, but the Bluebird of Paradise just pooped all over you.
Princess Beatrice:
Rudolph called. He wants his antlers back.
London Times headlines: Princess Beatrice charged with stealing part of the fence surrounding Kensington Palace and affixing it to her forehead.
Part of the missing grill work from one of the Rolls Royce's located on top of Princess Beatrice's head.
Amazon is selling a new style hat rack fashioned after something spotted on a Princesses' head.

What was Prince Andrew thinking ?

I'm sorry. I just can't help myself. The sarcastic side of me has shown its ugly head.
BUT, you are welcome to join in . . .
Anyone ?






I did not watch the wedding. Until looking at your blog, did not see pictures, either.
All I can think of is that if I were wearing that shit on my head, I wouldn't be smiling either.
Holy cow.

We watched but at a more suitable hour because we recorded it. It was quite the hat, particularly Beatrice's.

LOL, we were watching it live too as it was on every channel down here. We however, opted for the channel hosted by comedians so it was quite entertaining. The antlers got quite a bit of flack. One really has to wonder, WHO chooses their clothes though. Ick!

And the makeup! Especially Eugenie's... looks like she's going to a rock concert or out for a night of bar-hopping. With antlers on her head.

LOL...I totaly agree with you and I think 99% of the viewing audience would also!!!
That one hat looks like a giant pretzel!!! This is going to follow them for a long time..they should have had someone advise them of what to wear!!! Or maybe Fergie did!

Also, I'm wondering how it sticks to her forehead. Corkscrew?
The part that just kills me is that a LOT of money was spent on that clothing. Those hats.
Woulda been better spent on a home for indignant cats. Or hey, the indigent homeless!
Bah.

I think that one hat is retaliation for their mom not being invited (you know... Fergie, the one who tried to get lot$a money for setting up a meeting with her ex-prince)
or else, it reminds me of how some of the resorts in Mexico make toilet paper art and display it around the commode.
as far as the rest of the git up.... yikes.

I only watched bits and pieces of the royal wedding and I'll admit, it was a bit fascinating! I did not see those two. What a hoot they are!!
