A royal baby

Sweden will welcome another prince or princess in March 2016

  Fashion blogger Ebba von Sydow calls this “a complete success.” The midnight blue, sparkly gown that the very pregnant (with Princess Estelle) Crown Princess wore along with the Leuchtenberg sapphire earrings. “Elegant, modern and you can tell she’s comfortable.”

• The Swedish royal family announced on Sept. 4 that Their Royal Highnesses Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel are expecting their second child, due March of 2016. The new prince or princess is expected about a month after big sister Princess Estelle turns 4 on February 23. The new baby will take his or her Uncle Carl Philip’s third place in line for the crown, behind mother Victoria and sister Estelle, who are first and second in line of succession.
