Royal Shopping
When I see pictures of Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses,
it strikes me that they are always impeccably dressed.
Once, I read an article in Royalty Magazine about
Queen Máxima of The Netherlands.
She mixed expensive clothing with cheaper things.
Besides, did you know where she likes to shop?
Well, two of her favorite shopping cities are
Brussels and Antwerp (in Belgium).
Well, I totally agree with Queen Máxima.
If you don't find your choice there, you won't find it anywhere :-) .
But I like to shop everywhere (Paris, Nice, Berlin, London ...)
So, please enjoy these page: Royal Fashion and Shopping.
