Coronation Jewels
Even though there were no tiaras for the coronation of King Charles III, there were still plenty of stunning jewels on display. Here are my favorite jewelry looks.
Queen Camilla of the United Kingdom
Queen Camilla wore an altered version of Queen Mary's Crown with Queen Victoria's Coronation Necklace. I can't quite tell which earrings she's wearing but they are not Queen Victoria's Coronation Earrings. Overall she didn't wear as much jewelry as I was hoping for but she looked wonderful so it was probably the right choice.
Queen Suthida of Thailand
Queen Suthida wore Queen Sirikit's Sapphire Suite that contains beautiful and absolutely massive sapphires. She also wore the Nine Gems Belt which is meant to bring good luck to the wearer.
Queen 'Masenate of Lesotho
I wish we had a better look at Queen 'Masenate's necklace with mysterious blue gemstones. It's stunning and seems familiar but I can't place it.
Queen Sibonelo LaMbikiza of Eswatini
I also want a better look at Queen Sibonelo's big diamond necklace. It looks like there are a row of rubies along the outer edge. Update: I found a better picture!
Queen Azizah of Malaysia
Queen Azizah looked lovely with her diamond fringe necklace and multiple brooches.
Queen Máxima of the Netherlands
Queen Máxima took the no tiaras dress code personally and wore the biggest diamonds she could. Her earrings are made from the large diamonds of the Stuart Tiara and she wore another big diamond on her belt from a stomacher that belonged to Queen Emma.
Princess Eugenie of York
Princess Eugenie debuted the Albemarle High Jewellery Diamond Collar Necklace and Earrings by Garrard. I would not be surprised if they were a loan because together they cost $162,000.
Queen Letizia of Spain
Queen Letizia also wore big diamonds with the Queen Ena's Diamond Earrings from the Joyas de Pasar.
Crown Princess Mary of Denmark
Crown Princess Mary debuted slightly simplified forms of the turquoise jewels given to her by Queen Margrethe last year for her 50th birthday. The jewels are Danish royal heirlooms and even if they weren't already adaptable I'm sure they can still be worn in their previous forms and knowing Mary maybe even a few more.
What were your favorite jewels worn at the coronation?

Head of UK’s leading anti-monarchy group arrested at coronation protest
Republic’s Graham Smith held at protest on King Charles III’s procession route in central London
Daniel Boffey Chief reporter, Sat 6 May 2023 08.31 BST
The head of the UK’s leading republican movement has been arrested at an anti-monarchist protest on King Charles III’s procession route.
Graham Smith had been collecting drinks and placards for demonstrators at Trafalgar Square when he was detained by police on the Strand in central London.
It is understood Smith was detained after bringing a megaphone to the demonstration. The Met police had tweeted earlier this week that they would have a “low tolerance” of those seeking to “undermine” the day.
Harry Stratton, a director at Republic, who arrived as Smith and the others were detained, said: “They were collecting the placards and bringing them over when the police stopped them.
“The guys asked why and they were told: we will tell you that once we have searched the vehicle. That’s when they arrested the six organisers. We asked on what grounds they had been arrested but they wouldn’t say. It is a surprise as we had had a number of meetings with the police. They had been making all the right noises”.

Heartwarming! A senior citizen (Charles) took over the family business (the British monarchy) after his mother passed away, so his family and friends (rich white people) threw him a party (an unnecessarily expensive coronation) to support him.

Hi I'm a great fan of your blog. Can you say something about the headpieces of the princess of Wales and princess Charlotte at the coronation of Charles III?
I really loved them! Of course I would have preferred for everyone to be wearing tiaras but I had some time to get over that before the coronation so I wasn't still sad. The headpieces were made by Jess Collett and Alexander McQueen. Collett was supported by the Prince's Trust when she started her business which was a nice touch.
I thought the headpieces were a great compromise between a hat and a tiara and I love that Princess Charlotte had a mini version of her mother's. Both of their looks really walked that line of formality perfectly and were overall very flattering and timeless.
The semi-formality and matching outfits reminded me of what Queen Sonja and Princess Martha Louise wore to King Harald V's consecration in 1991. Norway doesn't do coronations anymore but they have a special service at Nidaros Cathedral. Queen Sonja wore a white dress with a cape and a fabric kokoshnik with pearl trim. Then her daughter, Princess Martha Louise, wore a dress made out of the same fabric and a headband.
Also, I am a sucker for symbolic embroidery and I'm looking forward to them doing an exhibition of the coronation clothes so that we can get a better look at the details.

Anti-monarchists receive ‘intimidatory’ Home Office letter on new protest laws
Home Office claims timing of new powers, taking effect days before king’s coronation, is coincidental
Ben Quinn, Rajeev Syal and Vikram Dodd
Official warning letters have been sent to anti-monarchists planning peaceful protests at King Charles III’s coronation saying that new criminal offences to prevent disruption have been rushed into law.
Using tactics described by lawyers as “intimidatory”, the Home Office’s Police Powers Unit wrote to the campaign group Republic saying new powers had been brought forward to prevent “disruption at major sporting and cultural events”.
The new law, given royal assent by Charles on Tuesday, means that from Wednesday:
Protesters who block roads, airports and railways could face 12 months behind bars.
Anyone locking on to others, objects or buildings could go to prison for six months and face an unlimited fine.
Police will be able to head off disruption by stopping and searching protesters if they suspect they are setting out to cause chaos.
Jun Pang, a policy and campaigns officer at Liberty, said: “Key measures in the bill will come into force just days before the coronation of King Charles – a significant event in our country’s history that is bound to inspire a wider national conversation and public protests. At the same time, the government are using a statutory instrument to bring draconian measures that the House of Lords threw out of the bill back from the dead, once again evading scrutiny and accountability.
“It’s worrying to see the police handed so many new powers to restrict protest, especially before a major national event. When the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act came into force, the police repeatedly misused them – in part because they simply did not understand them. Similarly, when Queen Elizabeth died, we saw police acting in inappropriate and heavy-handed ways towards protesters that violated their rights.”
Shami Chakrabarti, the former shadow attorney general, said: “During the passage of this illiberal and headline-grabbing legislation, ministers admitted that the new offence of ‘locking on’ is so broad as to catch peaceful protesters who link arms in public.
“Suspicionless stop and search is notorious for racial disparity and it is staggering that more of these provisions have brought into force so soon after Louise Casey’s devastating report [on the Met police]. The home secretary can blast ‘ecowarriors’ but this legislation may be used against anti-poverty and Ukraine solidarity protesters too.”
A statement from the home secretary, Suella Braverman, said: “This legislation is the latest step the government has taken against protesters who use highly disruptive tactics to deliberately delay members of the public, often preventing them from getting to work and hospital, as well as missing loved ones’ funerals.
“The range of new offences and penalties match the seriousness of the threat guerrilla tactics pose to our infrastructure, taxpayers’ money and police time.”

so just to sum this up, peaceful protesting can now land you in prison for a year and you might face an unlimited fine which i believe is up to £5000, and police can now stop and search you if they believe youre "setting out to cause chaos"
its specifically being put in place right before charles' coronation, but these are now considered criminal offenses so theyre not exclusive to it.
you know, a country where you can be put in prison for a year for peaceful protesting really doesnt sound like a fucking democracy to me.
