Harry & Meghan have arrived in Sydney.
The purple folders coordinating with her coat will not slow down speculation...

Charlene does look amazing. Probably could have dropped the braces though! Wonder if Charlotte has had her baby yet

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/10/2018 22:07

She must've done, she was already looking pretty far gone back in August.

Paradyning · 17/10/2018 22:13

I'm convinced CP Vics is pg again too. She's wearing so many baggy tops. Just like she did last time. She is in Jordan or some other such roasting place but still.
charlotte was still heavily
Oh in these September pics. She must have had it now like you say. She is just so stunningly beautiful.

Jesus Christ fat fingers.

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/10/2018 22:17

Hmm, I'm unsure about CP Victoria but give it a few months. Her daughter Estelle is a joy!

Spudlet · 17/10/2018 22:19

Wow, that is a skirt of All the Things right there... and is that a matchy matchy hat, or is it my screen?

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/10/2018 22:19

But holy crap what has Rania done to her face???

Paradyning · 17/10/2018 22:25

She looks about 12 in the first picture.
I'm liking Vics' green 2 piece. It's like something in LKB at the moment.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 17/10/2018 22:52

@Queen

Rania looks terrible, it is sad to see. Apparently is is Hyaluronic Acid and botox

This particular photo was taken in January so shes either had it redone, recently or its taking ages to wear off. Apparently she has had a nose job, and a bit of "help" here and there. But rania is so beautful, a few lines would not detract from her looks. I'm a bit sad for her that she felt the need to succumb to messing with her face.

Meghan wearing a navy dress by Aussie designer Dion Lee today. I love it, it's very her.

Melbourne is a wonderful city, my favourite in Oz @Quantumblue!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/10/2018 06:43

@Queen

Yes the designer she is wearing, really suits her. He is young; it would be great if Meghan could champion some young British designers. I cannot believe there is not enough talent in the UK of all places to suit Meghan. She does love her Givenchy and Dior.

Harry looks amazing in Navy Blue, even better without a tie.
I suspect we are going to see a lot of raincoats styled like Meghan has in the future. I guess she is trying to avoid the matchy matchy dress and coat combo beloved of Royal ladies. Maybe there is a revival of duster coats beloved in the 1980s. (Thinking back; I do remember wearing them about 1986!)

I love today's navy dress too, I think it's my favourite thing she's worn so far. I'm not sure about the trench coat though.....and am I allowed to say that actually, her wardrobe is rather boring? At least with Kate there's a variety of colour, Meghan is just shades of navy and black (it's actually made me think that people must think my wardrobe is really boring it is as about 90% of what I wear is navy!) Back on point, today's dress is fab, I like everything about it.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/10/2018 06:54

I am getting bored with her lack of colour. But that is Meghan, and she has an established style, so I don’t think it is going to change.
The only difference maybe, if she does actually go to the Pacific Islands; she may wear a bit more colour.
I think we will have to leave colour to Kate. Once the Queen passes, I’m sure Kate will wear brighter colours, simply to be seen, rather than because she loves them.

Although her colours are closer to what women wear in real life, so even if her clothes are £££s, her styling tips can be copied.

I don't like the trench and she needs to do some research and wear different shoes when walking on grass.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/10/2018 07:04

I think minimalism is Meghan's thing so we're never going to see anything overly fussy. I don't find her style boring at all as I love clean and simple lines.

And it's only natural that she should wear Australian designers when in Oz. She may well wear Wickstead again in NZ like Kate did.

She went high street for her second outfit of the day in Club Monaco. I really must check their store out, I still have some tops I picked up from them in Canada over 10 years ago.

MrsMiddleton · 18/10/2018 07:05

I think Rania has had Botox, fillers and lip fillers. Oh dear.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/10/2018 07:06

Her flats are from a sustainable brand so it's nice to see her give a nod towards ecofashion. I don't think we'll ever see her in trainers - she's not a trainers kind of gal!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/10/2018 07:06

I can see why Kate wears wedges so often. They’ve disappeared from her work wardrobe as apparently the queen dislikes them, but she often wears them when off duty.

Does this mean that Meghan is ditching the Uber expensive clothes which she wore early on in her marriage? I hope so. Obviously it's nice to see a knock out dress for a state dinner, but not a £10k dress for a lunch do.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/10/2018 07:09

Is it my imagination or has Harry's style come on in leaps and bounds since he met Meghan? He looks so much sharper these days and has ditched the dad jeans so beloved by his older brother!

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/10/2018 07:13

@VanillaSugary possibly - she's favoured a lot more mid-range and high-end high street clothes lately.

frugalkitty · 18/10/2018 07:14

I don't think her style is boring, I like the simplicity of it, just that the overall vibe is a bit dull, not the style I guess, more the colour palette as it's so limited. Which is fine, but applied to being photographed every day just comes across as a bit 'meh'.... I know what I mean, I might not have explained it very well. It's a bit like her hair, she tends to wear the one style of messy bun, whereas Kate does something different every time she's out. I think Meghan is training for the school run in years to come.....hair up in a messy bun, chuck a coat on and go! Grin
