This Week in Princesses

While we here in the deep south sent our children back to school this week (despite soaring temperatures), European royal families were enjoying summer holidays.

Queen Sofia of Spain is a lifelong fan of yachting, so it was no surprise to see her at the Copa del Rey race on the first day of the competition. It's not unusual for all or most of the royal family to show up.

It was a bit cooler in Britain where most of the British royal family ended their holiday cruise. Lady Louise Mountbatten-Windsor clearly resembles her grandmother Queen Elizabeth II. Not only does she have the queen's girlhood golden curls, but she seems to have adopted the queen's fashion sense, even wearing a little headscarf. Louise's mum, Sophie Count of Wessex, and brother, James Viscount Severn, also enjoyed the family break.

On Day 2 of the Copa del Rey, Infanta Leonor was a little doll in her purple and green summer dress. Although she no longer has her Shirley Temple curls, she is still one of the cutest children on the planet.

Girls day out for the royal ladies (and little ladies!) of Spain. Abuela Queen Sofia, Mama Princess Letizia and las chicas adorables Infantas Leonor and Sofia paid a visit to the Museum of Glass in Palma de Mallorca. Baby Sofia seemed less-than-impressed with the waiting photographers.

Then Letizia and her darlings joined Prince Felipe for a little family time back at the Copa del Rey.

Day 5 of the Copa del Rey found Princess Letizia really getting into the nautical spirit with her navy striped T-shirt, denim capris and sporty flats.
