Queen Elizabeth, grandmother Queen Mary, and Queen Mother at King George VI funeral[/quote]
I like the Queen Mother's outfit here, the shoes and the jacket/coat dress.[/quote]
Queen Mary's headpiece is rather scary, though.[/quote]
Did Queen Mary ever smile?! Meanwhile, the Queen Mother almost always seemed to be smiling, at least for photographs. [/quote]
Not that Queen Mary [i]would[/i] be smiling at a funeral for her son, but, a an aside, I don't think I've ever seen a photo of her smiling at any period in history. [/quote]

I had to look and someone put together a compilation of Queen Mary smiling photos

Look at this sweet picture of the future Queen Mary with 2 future kings and their sister Mary

She is wearing the same style earrings that Elizabeth liked to wear. Elizabeth owned several pairs of earrings similar to this style. I'm wondering if one set was from her grandmother.

The other thing of note is Queen Mary's waist.  She must be wearing a corset.  Her waist is tiny after having three children.[/quote]

Good eye! Here's a picture of the Princess of Wales wearing some of Queen Elizabeth's earrings that look strikingly similar.
