Special edition: Eugenie wedding thread

Harry and Meghan have 2 days more in NZ before they head back to London and, if I was her, I'd put on pyjamas, get Netflix fired up, and not leave my bed for several days! William and Kate will be out for a sporty engagement in Essex tomorrow and I'm sure we'll start to see them more as she's now officially back from maternity leave..

No idea what the continental royals are up to but New My Royals (does that title even make sense?) is my go-to link for them!

Anyone know if M and H are back yet?

gingercat02 · 02/11/2018 08:44

I an no fan of Camilla or PC. (I know the whole debacle of Charles and Diana's marriage was bigger than their relationship but I struggle to get past that). However she always looks great, totally appropriate for her age and the venue.

Oh just remembered. One of the gossip mags had Andrew and Fergie on the cover with Back Together splashed all over it!

Haha gingercat02 the Australian Women’s Day had Meghan confirmed pregnant with twins before the pregnancy was even announced.

QueenOfTheAndals · 02/11/2018 09:57

The Aussie gossip magazines are the worst! Actually make that second worst. The US tabloid claiming Camilla would be divorcing Charles for his 70th bday is probably no. 1!

Treating myself to a shopping morning today as it's my birthday and there is a LOT of Meghan Green around. Also realised my 6yo coat is that shade so I was ahead of the trend!

We had this little gem as well, pic included. I can’t believe I used to buy these magazines Blush

"World exclusive interview: Meghan's confession". Yeah but I highly doubt said interview is with her!

Happy Birthday Queen CakeFlowers
Yes, I was out today and noticed pleated skirts are a thing. None of them anywhere as beautiful as the Givenchy though and unfortunately my budget doesn’t stretch to one of those Sad

AhoyDelBoy · 02/11/2018 10:32

Anywhere near as beautiful

AhoyDelBoy · 02/11/2018 10:33

Ridiculous isn’t it. Not to mention Kate is now Queen Grin

LimpyLampy · 02/11/2018 10:35

Happy birthday Queen

I think Camilla dresses well and the reason thefrock coats suit her (and Carole Middleton) is because they are age appropriate.

AhoyDelBoy · 02/11/2018 10:38

I love that dark green. Not really right for spring/summer I don’t think but I hope we see it next winter.

Clionba · 02/11/2018 10:39

@QueenOfTheAndals - Cake-a very Happy Birthday to you! Buy yourself something nice! What shop is that? I have taken a fancy to Meghan Green, also that lovely blue violet (not see through, though)!!

QueenOfTheAndals · 02/11/2018 10:47

Thanks all! That was in &Other Stories. I was planning to treat myself to the green silk blouse M wore with the leather skirt but there was no sign of it, alas.

No!! Bad luck try somewhere else? I don't know where you live, but Jigsaw has some nice pieces in that shade?

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 02/11/2018 10:59

What an adorable picture, CurlyWurlyTwirly.
Happy birthday, Queen, have a great time.

Look online. Other Stories sold out of that shirt within a few days but they had it remade and restocked it shortly after Megan wore it. It is currently sold out again but they still have it listed on their website which means they will get it in again if it’s a best seller x

VanillaSugary · 02/11/2018 11:25

I inadvertently bought a Meghan green coat from Phase Eight in August - they might have more green stuff in.

CoachBombay · 02/11/2018 11:29

Happy Birthday Queen!!

I have a long woollen coat in Meghan Green so it will feature once again this winter haha.

I'm currently at a dilemma as what to wear for rememberable Sunday. We have a massive rememberable parade at camp.

I am not sure I like Q Maxima's outfit it seems a bit muddled but she pulls it off if that makes sense?

VanillaSugary · 02/11/2018 11:49

Happy birthday 🍰 Queens👸 !!!!!!

Happy birthday queen

Curly I think I have a new favourite tiara! How beautiful.

Camilla looks great. I can imagine me donning house coats from 70 onwards Grin

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 02/11/2018 12:41

My favourite: the lotus flower tiara worn by Diana and more recently the DoC.
