Royal Outfit of the Day: October 10

Well, this is an ethereal little gown, no?
The Prince and Princess of Monaco attended the Princess Grace Awards. Prince not shown. Use your imagination.
It's pretty much a maternity standard, but there are reasons why things are standards, and this really works for her. I mean, I have no idea if this twin pregnancy has been easy on Charlene or not, but at least as long as she's wearing a floaty gown like this, she looks like she's sailing through. It's couture from Dior, of course, because they sponsored the event.

For me, though, the real show was the earrings. THESE EARRINGS. Have a little sparkle to get your through your Friday:
WANT. Charlene's minimal look and lack of tiara love masks the fact that she's actually worn some pretty serious pieces over the years, many of them modern. If these are all ending up in her personal collection, consider me crazy jealous.

And by the way...in case you weren't buying the confirmations to Hello or Point de Vue, the palace this week issued an official announcement confirming that Albert and Charlene are indeed expecting twins.
A much bigger question mark comes from the Italian edition of Vanity Fair, which is reporting that Andrea Casiraghi and Tatiana Santo Domingo are expecting their second child. Princess Caroline's crew isn't big on official announcements, so we'll just have to wait and see if it turns out to be true.
