Love the picture of her desk. Even a Princess needs some clutter!
ahem, a monogrammed saw.
I am with soodie, my eye first went to the saw. I am, as you know, a self-professed tool geek, but the princess? Also wonder about the film. May a reminder of her former husband? Always fun to peek at other people's lives. At least on your blog, it's legal!
love this-chairs are pretty cool too xx
What a wonderful things!!
I would love to have the black and white picture of her! There she is so elegant and beautiful!
I liked this post very much! Thank you a lot for sharing.

wowowow!
I love the 1956 photograph of the Princess. Channeling Diana Vreeland and perhaps Daisy Fellows. Interesting little doodads-and the say, Must have one of those. la
This is such a great photograph of Princess margaret, xv.
Maria, Soodie & Home Before Dark- I am with you on the saw! It's actually the reason I scanned that image. Not necessarily one of the items I would have expected Princess Margaret to have owned.
