The Finch Formerly Known As Gold

A classic never goes out of style

Then again, if it had never been in style in the first place — but no matter. Let us cheer the fact that at least one member of the Royal Family understands the word "frugal":

Princess Anne has worn the same dress she wore to the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer 27 years ago to another royal wedding.

The Princess Royal wore the white dress with yellow floral print to Saturday's wedding of Lady Rose Windsor and George Gilman, at the Queen's Chapel, London.

The 57-year-old even completed the outfit with the same hat she wore to Charles and Diana's wedding in 1981.

I'm impressed that she's the same size after twenty-seven years.
