Our beloved space princess is looking like a space queen today on the cover of Vanity Fair.

Carrie Fisher's is one of four covers released by the magazine to celebrate both the upcoming release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi and the 40th anniversary of the original Star Wars.

And no surprise, General Leia Organa looks just perfect.

That hair! That deliciously dramatic cloak! That regal bearing ... oh, man. We're gonna need a moment to wipe these tears away.
