Over a hundred pages of tiaras. If I were Empress of the World, every day would be a tiara wearing day. I’d wear them with sweatpants. I’d wear them with sneakers. I’d have one to wear to the beach, another to wear in the bathtub, another to wear when food shopping and maybe a few for a ball here and there. I would have tiaras for playing with the cats and tiaras for watching television and tiaras for strolling in the park and a tiara just because it was the 6th of March.
I have run in the Princess Half Marathon at Disney World for the past three years and the most wonderful part is being able to wear a tiara for the race. And for every moment afterwards until I arrive at the airport to go back home. I have been known to put my tiara on while planning the next year’s trip.
I think I’m going to go make sure my tiara doesn’t need dusting.
That first one is owned by the Duke of Westminster:
It is gorgeous. Kokoshnik is a really cool word. My Russian next door neighbor tells me koshka is Russian for cat which is nearly as cool a word. The others are pretty but I’ve never seen them before.
The Russian tiara is nice, I have a fondness for enamelwork.
I would love to have a kokoshnik tiara made based on enamel and opals, with peacocks as the theme. Of course I would have to win a significant lottery to be able to afford what I like, and to give me the finances to go to events that need that level of formality.
Of course there are a lot of tiaras out there that are lovely, is there anything on how many you need for a suitable rotation so you don’t wear them too frequently in photographs?
I don’t care as much as some folks do for the Russian style. I do like the pearl drop tiaras. I adore tiaras with colored stones. I’d love to have a tiara with lots of amethysts.
