I think this is my favourite thread on Mumsnet

It's a nice break from the endless angst of AIBU isn't it?

Plumps cushions and parks arse.

Lovely! Thank you @Queen.
I like the links to the blogs; good call

Just found This video on Royal Maternity Style.

Also if you scroll down further, there are some compilations of Royal MOTB outfits and a new Thing: Royals in Jumpsuits!

QueenOfTheAndals · 06/11/2018 12:41

I can guess without even looking that the #1 Royal in a jumpsuit is Maxima!

That red colour is such a great colour. So vibrant. Its one of the rare colours that l think looks good on everyone.

SenecaFalls · 06/11/2018 13:17

Thanks for the new thread. Crown

Agree that the red is a great color. Happily there seems to be quite a bit of it in the shops here in the US for fall.

Max looks fantastic in that picture.

It's my favourite thread too. Thank you.

God sorry yes ursula, popcorn is so low class Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 06/11/2018 13:31

I love that red, I recently bought a new winter coat in that shade. A gorgeous, wrap around style with a belt. Put it on and I felt like Olivia Pope from Scandal. Until my 4yo asked me why I was going out in my dressing gown!

How good does she look! The lass glows

Butterymuffin · 06/11/2018 14:18

It's my favourite thread too now.

Saw Chris Ship, ITV royal correspondent, say on Twitter that the Harry and Meghan tour documentary was the most watched programme in the 9-10pm slot. I've still got it recorded to watch.

VanillaSugary · 06/11/2018 14:39

Hello everyone!

I will watch the documentary on catch up. Thank you for the new thread! The last one filled up quickly,didn't it?

This thread is as good as chocolate 🍫
Thanks Queen

Spudlet · 06/11/2018 15:09

Did you guys see the pictures of the Queen out riding? Blimey, I hope I can still sit on a pony at her age! And the DoE was out driving (a carriage) as well.

IdaBWells · 06/11/2018 15:12

I really like Camilla’s outfits, she must be spending a fortune as they all look bespoke and fit perfectly as well as having lovely fabrics and styles. Although I can find plenty of photos there hasn’t been much information about the designers. Who is making her clothes and does she have a personal stylist? Since she got married and even before, once she was officialy under Charles’ wing he clearly has been lavishing money on her wardrobe. Does anyone know more? Also really love her hats.

CrookedMe · 06/11/2018 15:20

I am really enjoying these threads too.

I have to admit I'm glad that the Harry and Meghan trip is over; I was beginning to feel a bit queasy about the straight forward take on Meghan being no more than a show pony. I mean, who needs multiple outfits per day, for each different time you meet someone? It jars with my inner feminist. Plus the sheer waste of money blew my mind.

Right, now that's off my mind. As you were. 

UrsulaPandress · 06/11/2018 15:25

I agree Crooked . I can understand getting changed from daywear to evening wear (in a parallel universe to mine) but is there really a need to get changed numerous times a day.

Pupsiecola · 06/11/2018 15:28

Thanks for the new thread. I put the documentary on whilst sort of working from home. I didn't think the journalist presenting it was very engaging. It was a bit meh with nothing new, if you'd been remotely following the tour online. One bit did make me grin though: towards the end, in NZ, H&M were walking across a footbridge. M spotted the camera (which was off to one side, and below) and gave a wave. H was completley oblivious to the fact that it was there. I thought that was quite telling. But perhaps she's just used to it. I don't dislike them. I've always had a soft spot for Harry. I do find Meghan's wardrobe dull. I much prefer Kate's but then I have similar colouring. And am hourglass so Meghan's clothing would look awful on me!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 06/11/2018 15:31

Camilla's Designers are Robinson Valentine.

Meghan would have got changed for each engagement, so that each photo would look different. People are going to be looking at the photos in decades time.
