In her new portrait, Princess Estelle looked so grown-up with her long blonde hair cascading to her front shoulders, and with a pensive look to the camera. She's also wearing a tweed mini skirt from Patachou clothing brand for children and a white silk blouse.

Princess Estelle is the eldest grandchild of His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and Her Majesty Queen Silvia of Sweden

She is second in line in direct succession to the Swedish throne. She is the first Swedish princess to be born a direct heir to the throne who can't be superseded by the birth of a younger brother.

However, in Britain where the Swedish royals are also listed in the line of succession as direct descendants of Queen Victoria, Prince Oscar precedes Princess Estelle (and so Prince Carl Philip over Crown Princess Victoria) in the line of succession. The United Kingdom only switched to Absolute Law of Succession in 2013 and wasn't implemented retroactively.

Despite her young age, Princess Estelle is already manifesting a fine taste in fashion. She dresses so well, appropriate of her age, whenever she's in public.

Although her outfits of course are still shopped by her mother, Princess Estelle knows how to carry herself well no matter what apparel she wear.
