Hi Isabelle, I really appreciate your blog, particularly the entries on Mathilde's bejeweled looks. As a fan of royal jewels, I lament the fact that Mathilde does not have a lot of access to jewels, especially tiaras. I have been playing with photoshop recently to visualize Mathilde in different tiaras. Would you be interested in checking them out?

I only post valid information on this blog, no speculation or photoshopped images, to avoid any confusion. That said, I do share your frustration! I hope you can share your images via another channel, and I'm curious to find out what you've made of them! Best of luck!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHi Isabelle, that's totally understandable. Thanks anyways and I'll let you know when I've posted them up somewhere else.
