diorOn the evening of May 18, 2013, Their Serene Highnesses Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene of Monaco attended the 2014 Dior Cruise Collection fashion show and cocktail reception in Monaco.

Guests in attendance included famous actors and actresses, models, hundreds of extremely tanned and insanely wealthy people, CEOs, “celebrities” who became “famous” for questionable reasons as well as a hanger-on or two.  Or, three.  Or, four.  Whatever…

So, yeah, there is not much else to say.  After all it is just a silly fashion show.

His Royal Highness Prince Felipe of Asturias Visits an Air Force Base Whilst Looking Quite Snazzy in His Uniform.

FelipeOn May 17, 2013, His Royal Highness Prince Felipe of Asturias arrived at the Base Aérea de Torrejón just outside of Madrid to meet with various specialized medical units of the Spanish Air Force.

Basically, in my little ‘ole opinion, he just wanted to get out of the house, put on his military uniform, and hang out with really cool people who have an incredibly stressful job.
