Victoria's Suit by Armani

Lately, Ebay has become my favorite website. Not because I am buying anything but because you can find the best Royal ID's there! If you notice the many new ID's on the side pages you can tell some of them come from Ebay!

I normally just look at one designer and check the current and past listings and then move to the next designer. It is a process but to me it is fun. Other times I might search for a design style in a category and that is how I find something. That is exactly how I found this jacket of Victoria's.

I know it is not an exact match but it most certainly is the same design. This Suit is from Armani Collezioni. I believe it is from their 2008 collection but please don't quote me on that! For those of you who are still unsure which outfit of Victoria's I am talking about- let me refresh your memory.

Opening of the Government in 2009 

Carl Johan Bernadotte's Funeral in 2012 

Princess Lilian's Funeral in 2013

Kristine Bernadotte's Funeral in 2014

Off my memory I can only remember these 4 times she has worn this jacket but it remains my favorite. I love the uniqueness of the puckering pleats in the front. Very classy! What do you think? 

Representation Dinner at the Palace

This evening the Swedish Royal Family held their first Representation Dinner of the year at the royal palace in Stockholm. All of the Swedish Ladies were there in lovely gowns.

Madeleine wore a new dress by Pronovias and Victoria rewore one of her gowns from Escada. She originally wore this dress back in 2011. Victoria wore the 6 Button tiara (my favorite) and Madeleine wore a tiara we have not seen in a while- her Aquamarine Bandeau. I am not sure how I feel about it. It certainly matches the dress but I never have really been a fan of this tiara. Victoria also seems to be wearing her Roger Vivier shoes. I image them to be the cream pair.

Madeleine's gown reminds me a lot of her 2nd gown from the Nobel Celebrations but Pronovias has denied that it is theirs. 

Sofia was also there and wore a new gown from Kay Senchai. 

Sofia carried her go to By Malene Birger clutch.

So this find I have kept very hush hush and tucked away for at least a month- why? Simply because I was not 100% sure about it. But after coming back to it again- I think I am right.

So remember all the way back to September when the Opening of the Government happened? Sofia wore this lovely skirt suit. I loved the pleats and how it was fun but also very appropriate for this kind of event.

 One day while searching for something of Madeleine's actually I came across this jacket. It looked familiar. I really think it is what Sofia wore! I tried to get a confirmation from Valentino's Press Department but they were unhelpful so I have just decided to make the decision myself.

This coat is a little longer but I think it is till the same. What do you think?

UPDATE: YourLoveMoments shared with me that there is indeed a shorter version of the coat!

Hello- I still exist

So I realized I have not been posting after each event like I originally had started out to do or planned on doing- but I really do still exist! College is crazy right now and I am focusing  on that. I have been posting still- but on the side pages. One of the things I find most fun is discovering old fashion ID's that have been unknown. This weekend I spent a lot of time doing this for Victoria. I shared a few of these finds on Facebook (If you have not liked that page yet- you should!) but there have been many others that have been added! Check Victoria's Shoes, Bags, Jewellery, and Dresses pages especially!! Ebay has been my best friend currently!

Estelle in Gardner and the Gang

For Day 2 of the EU Figure Skating Championships (January 31) Estelle, Daniel, and Victoria showed up again.

Estelle wore a Sweater from Gardner and the Gang.

Weekly Catch Up

Sorry I have not posted this week- I have been around I promise! I have spent most of my online time searching for older fashions (check the pages in the sidebar!) and have found a good number of new matches for you all to enjoy!

Okay so this is going to be a flash and dash post showing you what outfits have been worn since my last post and noting if we know the designers.

Victoria has had a few busy days this week. First on January 27 she attended the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the concentration camps in Auschwitz.

 For this event she wore her Milly jacket first seen in 2011 when pregnant with Estelle.

Yesterday, Victoria opened the European Championships for Figure Skating. Estelle and Daniel joined her for the day and we of course got some adorable photos!

Victoria wore her blue Prada coat (recently ID'd with the help of Anna at My Small Obsessions- The Countess of Wessex wore the same coat in cream this past week as well). Victoria originally wore this coat back in November 2014 when opening the tunnel with her father.  

Finally- Today Victoria and Daniel met with John Mullins at Haga Slott. 

Victoria wore her Victoria Beckham top we first saw in San Francisco. 

Cabinet Briefing for Victoria

Today, Victoria and Carl Gustaf held a Cabinet Briefing for the government at the Royal Palace.

It is difficult to say what Victoria is wearing from this small photo but it looks to me to be her By Malene Birger jacket we first saw her wear in 2012. What do you think?
