Princess Grace knew exactly how to wear a tiara. (Click on the photo to enlarge
it). Set in the middle of her head, not the front, and slanted at a 45-degree
angle. Her tiara is backed by an updo which means that you can't see through
it--the hair acts as a backdrop to the tiara and allows the headpiece to become
part of the hairstyle rather than a separate piece. Never perch your tiara at
the front of your head like a beauty pageant winner or prom queen! You are a
princess bride, not a bride with a tiara on!
