Royal style & gossip: from maximum Maxima to minimalist Meghan

Previous thread:

Royal style & gossip: what do we want? Frock shots! When do we want them? Now!

Just read two pieces - apparently Catherine was asked to wear a hair up on her wedding day as is tradition but didn't want to as she prefer to wear it down compromise with a half up half down style.

The coordination of both Duchesses wearing similar colour was on purpose. So that Meghan's baby bump didn't become the story apparently. But was that the looseness or the colour?

The thing I find interesting about that alterations is that she (or someone close to her) must have an good eye for fashion to spot how they could be altered at all.

Hmm not sure about the last report really. Especially as MM holds the bump at every photo opportunity

Interesting about the wedding hairdo though!

Aw @YearOfYouRemember keep contributing!

That’s what I love about this thread; everyone contributes and we hear about interesting Royal stuff which we wouldn’t normal come across.
I have discovered some great blogs on here.
Some really interesting YouTube videos which we had a flurry of on the last ( or even previous ; I think thread).
I find New My Royals is the most up to date.
I have also reactivated my twitter feed which has languished for 9 years! I am following a whole plethora of Royal correspondents and bloggers.

A lot of talk about M having twins on the internet. I must admit I did wonder myself.

Chartreuse shantung Silk. Only Max could carry it off.
Deduct one point for ferret walking hat.

Just a little detail. What do we think of Max’s knit gloves ( whilst she’s kissing Nigel Farage)

I love that chartreuse silk dress! The gloves are a charming detail. Max gives me wardrobe goals. If I was braver, Queen Margarethe....

Whilst scrolling through Getty Images; I found these photos from the Dutch visit to Luxembourg in May.
I think we will wake up to some nice evening dresses tomorrow.
I love it when Max goes on tour

I couldn't carry the gloves off. Max, though... [swoon]

Eugenie was out last night. Lovely smile; super slim.
Just wouldn’t have put a black jacket with the navy dress.

@princesseugenie
Please read our thread; the Duchesses are already on board!

Is that her husband? He looks totally different from the wedding day

No it’s not her husband. It’s just a friend!

Here’s a link of her at ascot. Not sure when but she looks stunning

I don’t like Eugenie’s ensemble at all

What a gorgeous dress! I love the strappy detail. I think it's a light enough blue to take a black jacket without being too clashy. It's a great shape on her too.

Nice hat action from both Beatrice and Eugenie there as well - I love a good dramatic hat.

What at Ascot? @ahoydelboy or last night.
I just thought she looked really beautiful with her hair off her face and the hat wasn’t crazy. Bea looked good too and it was nice to see them with Uncle Charles

The gloves reminded me of Jim Carey in The Mask.

I'm seeing that patient tomorrow who was a jeweller and repaired some royal jewels. I'm trying to get details from him! Will pass on!

She really looks like Andrew in those photos, doesn't she? He was fairly good-looking as a young man.

they also make sure she's not going to rock up in an identical dress to someone else at an event

Reminded me of this @Spudlet

I think Eug looks great in that navy dress - though I agree that the black jacket doesn't look quite right with it.

Last night Curly will look at the Ascot outfit now.

Yes please do Clionba

This isn’t Eugenie’s Instagram feed but there are lovely photos of her showing her personality and loads of cute pics of Bea & Eugenie as children.
You can tell; even though their parents divorced; it was still a loving family.
