Having a burger at the Taj Mall.
Now this is exactly why I love her. So beautiful. So accessible. So normal (relatively) despite everything. It makes me giggle...she's having a burger at the mall [emoji23]
Photo of Queen Rania and her mother shared for Mother's Day.
Love this photo. I see that the younger princess looks like her grandmother.
Arriving at the launch for Early Grade Reading and Math Project in Amman. The bag is by Valentino.
Love that bag & the dress.
Preparing for Independence Day Celebrations. Love her accessories.
The jewelry piece with rings attached by chains to the cuff bracelet is very cool. Do you know the designer? Does the design have significance?
Arriving for Independence Day celebrations.
That skirt is AMAZING! Love the print lining. It looks hand painted.
I think it's probably a local designer. There isn't a specific name I could use to find more information. It's just a traditional design. Might have something to do with the Hamsa (Hand of Fatima) amulet that wards off the evil eye.
Visiting Al-Salt. The ladies had a chat about the history of the shemagh in Jordan.
From Wikipedia:
"In Jordan, the red-and-white keffiyeh is strongly associated with the country and its heritage, where it is known as the shemagh mhadab. The Jordanian keffiyeh has decorative cotton or wool tassels on the sides; the bigger these tassels, the greater the garment's supposed value and the status of the person wearing it. It has long been worn by Bedouins and villagers and used as a symbol of honor and/or tribal identification. The tasseled red-and-white Jordanian shemagh is much thicker than the untasseled red-and-white shemagh seen in Persian Gulf countries."
