The Queen

ALL SMILES AT THE BRAEMAR GAMES THE QUEEN IS JOINED BY HER BELOVED CLAN FOR THE ANNUAL FUN-FILLED GATHERING

- Tracy Schaverien

The Queen was on top form last week attending her favorite Scottish event with her family by her side.

Regal in a purple dress and coat ensemble with matching hat, the monarch all smiled at the annual Braemar Gathering, joined by the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay – as the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall are known north of the border.

Braving the cold air, Prince Charles wore a traditional kilt, while Camilla sported a tartan trim on her vermilion coat.

The Queen, meanwhile, pulled a check blanket over her knees to protect against the chill.

Helping make it a real family affair was the eldest grandson Peter Phillips and his Canadian-born wife Autumn, who gave a chic nod to her Scottish hosts in a stylish green tweed velvet-trimmed Guinea London coat dress, with a feathered fascinator by Edinburgh milliner Sally-Ann Provan.
