I swear, it looked like nothing other than one of those plastic, molded bits from the 1970's, that were painted gold and were used as wall decoration. Specifically, an oval picture frame with molded bow. I think my great aunt had one, or something very close, on her wall. It was hideous there, too. On a related note, people were saying her raccoon eye makeup looked awful, too. I saw a bit on TV, filmed before the wedding, in which Diane Sawyer was interviewing the hat designer, and who should drop by, but Princess Beatrice. Without makeup, just casually dressed. She was looked lovely. Sharon C.

LOL! I can't decide if it was an alien trying to eat her head, or coming out of her head. Either that, or she decided she wanted to pay tribute to/compete with the trees in the Abbey???? <snicker> The colour didn't do her any favours either, the grandmothers at my husband's brother's wedding wore colours like that, only with more sequins and beads...(which probably couldn't have made it any worse).
