Love it tomandlorenzo.com/2014/09/george-clooney-and-amal-alamuddin-get-married-part-two/ and I can't wait to see the frock. Even though the whole wedding has been too brash for me and abit not right with it. I love the way she dresses. Call me shallow but this is S & B!

Shes the full package but goodness me she's lost weight and looks scarily thin in the outfit.

Its sad that this degree of thinness is seen as desirable.

Pooseyfrumpture · 29/09/2014 19:47

I thought that too, Clean - her legs look great in the white flowery dress but that trouser suit makes her waist look skeletal Sad

NowWhatSoWhat · 29/09/2014 19:50

She is gorgeous. On the other hand she reminds me of Nancy Del Ollio. Once I thought that thought I couldn't unthink it.

Surprised he didn't wear lavender.

mignonette · 29/09/2014 19:57

I don't care if it was Stella McCarntney- the thought of carrying a pleather bag on my wedding day..... :(

Philoslothy · 29/09/2014 19:57

It is beautiful

thesaurusgirl · 29/09/2014 20:00

I think the hair is real, I work with a lot of Arabic women and that kind of mane is normal. The nose and teeth have had help. Her legs are quite incredible.

Her flamboyance jars with her profession IMO.

Something's up.

mooth · 29/09/2014 20:00

That hair is fantastic.

mignonette · 29/09/2014 20:01

Yes her hair is real alright- I echo Thesaurus. I love that inky blue black mane.

Like I said, the groom should've been in Lavender. Wink

thesaurusgirl · 29/09/2014 20:02

I didn't like anything George wore, and his shoes are hideous.

Lagoonablue · 29/09/2014 20:03

Something's up? Like what?

coffeeinbed · 29/09/2014 20:04

That white dress was so short someone must have got an eyeful with all that boat boarding going on.

But does she have the legs for it....

BecauseIsaidS0 · 29/09/2014 20:04

I had to look up lavender weddings

NickAngel · 29/09/2014 20:04

She looked very very thin. Beautiful clothes though.
Not strictly about S and B but I feel really uncomfortable about the wedding. It's a completely irrational feeling as I don't know them and never likely too. It just feels odd. A bit like photos of Dodi and Diana.
I can't explain why it feels weird.
Anyway, good luck to them.

coffeeinbed · 29/09/2014 20:05

Oh no....
Visions of Nancy.

Noa I can't get her out of my mind.

mignonette · 29/09/2014 20:06

He has really aged lately hasn't he?

thesaurusgirl · 29/09/2014 20:09

Wish I knew Blue, but I don't. It just doesn't smell right.

George was always so private about his private life and suddenly he's not.

She's in a very serious and stressful line of work and yet her appearance is often quite frivolous. That red dress that she wore to the war crimes conference, for example, was a very attention-seeking choice.

There's something of the Tom and Katie about it, I think. Way too much of a show.

pinkfrocks · 29/09/2014 20:10

I just found the whole thing very contrived. I dunno- GC doesn't convince me somehow - he seems more in love with his image and posing for the cameras.
I didn't like her outfits- any of them- too OTT .
I somehow can't see how she can combine a Hollywood lifestyle and be a lawyer in London. We shall see what happens.

BecauseIsaidS0 · 29/09/2014 20:11

Yy to Tom and Katie feeling! You nailed it there!

pinkfrocks · 29/09/2014 20:12

I don't think she is beautiful either. she's got quite typical Lebanese features- huge nose- good teeth and plenty of dark hair and she knows how to use make up, but she's attractive, not beautiful.

cartsmar · 29/09/2014 20:13

LOADS of weddings are showy, we're just not (thankfully!) subjected to dozens of photos of them in the press. And they don't all have loads of A listers attending.

vestandknickers · 29/09/2014 20:14

Some miserable feckers on here.

Just because they're gorgeous and look happy, some people have to slag them off.

I wish them well.

letsgotothebeach · 29/09/2014 20:14

Why a woman with a serious and high powered job cant be interested in fashion and want to look glamourous and possible frivolous, I dont know?

EmilyGilmore · 29/09/2014 20:15

I think it's all really odd.

It's very hard to believe she's as terribly important, clever and serious-minded as we're told when she seems to be playing dress-up with a man who makes-believe did a living.

Terribly ostentatious. Weirdly public. They don't look at ease with one another. They look like they're having fun, in a fourth-date kind of way and she is clearly loving the attention and flamboyance of it all but...why so very pubic? It's almost as if we just all know, without a doubt, that George Clooney is now married. 'Cos single men get nowhere in politics Wink

Ps. Her hair reminds me of Amy Winehouse. Confused

IlonaRN · 29/09/2014 20:15

The waistband on the trousers is VERY high. She's wearing VERY high heels, and the trousers are dragging on the floor.
Most people would look like they have long legs if they combined all those.

Another skeletal celebrity.
