William and Kate, I Just Can't Wait!

Because of the Presidents’ Day holiday and the resulting mail draught, I don’t yet have my royal wedding invitation in hand. I’m not going to let that minor technicality keep me from starting my trip preparations, however.

I’ve watched Four Weddings and a Funeral and I’ve read my fair share of fashion magazines. I know even garden variety British weddings involve dashing gentleman in morning coats, adorable children and hats that are so fabulous and over the top, they make their Kentucky Derby cousins look darn near puritanical in comparison.
Throw Elton John, the Eton and St Andrews school chums and that cheeky Princess Anne in the mix, and well, there’s just no telling what might happen. I can hardly wait!

All I have to do is close my eyes and I’m already there… giving Camilla the look I’ve wanted to give her since the early 90s, sitting across the table from Kate’s charming late 40s uncle who, because he will be so taken with my fetching mane, will give up his place near the queen to come chat me up in his darling English accent and eating food fit for… well, fit for a would be king.

Designers have been sending me frocks they want me to wear for weeks now and my craft room is bursting at the seams, what with all the tulle, feathers, ribbons and flowers I’ve been accumulating in my attempt to keep pace with the big name European milliners. All I have left to do is make a late April appointment at Hot Heads 407-671-0480 and retrieve my passport and I’ll be good to go.

Romance is in the air and perhaps that coveted ivory parchment envelope will be in my mailbox. Maybe it will be in yours as well. Hope to see you in London or at Hot Heads several days prior. Have a great week!
