Omg, nightmare ADB! Shock

I don't like Eugenie in the blue frock, the neckline looks far too fussy, and doesn't do anything for her square face.

CrookedMe · 23/11/2018 20:36

That Insta feed shows such a lovely happy woman, with a very loving and affectionate family. Quite amazing really given how formal Andrew's upbringing must have been.

QueenOfTheAndals · 23/11/2018 20:38

The dress is a bit boring, and that sort of neckline works better on the flat of chest. If you're large-bosomed it doesn't look quite right. Plus she still needs a decent bra!

She'd look amazing in something slightly more va-va-voom, with a hint of décolletage.

Also Andrew appears so pompous but yet has produced a seemingly lovely daughter. He must have done something right!

That poor woman who wore the same outfit as Kate.

Quantumblue · 23/11/2018 20:47

Somewhere there is a photo of Max and Mathilde turning up somewhere in near identical outfits. Will have a look later when I'm on my laptop.

Pupsiecola · 23/11/2018 20:55

Interesting article re how outfits are adapted. Not accurate when it says some are lengthened as she can't wear anything too short. She does wear quite a lot of short dresses/skirts. I suspect it's more to do with what's a suitable length for each individual occasion?

The beautiful Portland tiara has been stolen from the Welbeck Estate in Nottinghamshire. One of our national treasures . Hope it is recovered soon.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 23/11/2018 21:42

Haven't seen Our Sophie for a while. She's in Roland Mouret'
I like her hair.

Remember when Sophie started dating Edward and everyone said she looked like Diana? It was the hair at the time.

I really dislike that M for Missoni coat it looks scruffy (faded and raggy )

The D and DoCamb are in Leicester next Wednesday to pay tribute to the foot all victims. Then they are hosting a party of the families of serving military (in London) I think. Then flying to Cyprus to visit the troops (4th and 5th December respectively).

Pupsiecola · 24/11/2018 00:02

football, for the families. FFS. I am trying really hard to proofread all writing BEFORE I post/send/reply. I'm failing!

BagelGoesWalking · 24/11/2018 00:19

Placemarking for the Max pics 😬

Harry & Meghan will move to Frogmore House in the grounds of Windsor castle.
Wow, big split from William and they’ll be taking baby Sussex round to tea with the Queen all the time. ( Good networking move Meghan!).

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 24/11/2018 04:14

I have been reading the KP twitter feed
William has been doing a lot of great projects; bullying, mental health, saving live through football.
You can already see how his style (supported by Kate) is really consolidating on his sphere of interests.
Harry & Meghan have the more media friendly engagements. Harry is off to Zambia on Monday.

I think it is interesting how William is starting to announce his & Kates engagements a bit further ahead; to ensure coverage. Eg Leicester helicopter crash site next week and Cyptess for the military personnel in 10 days. William is shrewd and is fast adapting to the changing media environment.

Oh dear Meghan’s community kitchen has links to 19 terrorists. Someone has been badly advised.

That is only according to this beacon of enlightenment..

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Jackson_Society
The Henry Jackson Society is a neoconservative British foreign policy think tank.[1][2][3][4] It has been described as right-wing...

...The think tank has been described by the media as having right-wing and neoconservative leanings, though it positions itself as non-partisan.[1][36] In 2014, Nafeez Ahmed, an executive director of the Institute for Policy Research & Development, said that the Henry Jackson Society courts corporate, political power to advance a distinctly illiberal oil and gas agenda in the Middle East.[2][37][38]

In 2009 the society became the secretariat of two all-party parliamentary groups (APPGs), for Transatlantic and International Security, chaired by Gisela Stuart, and for Homeland Security, chaired by Bernard Jenkin. A transparency requirement upon non-profit organisations acting as secretariat at that time was that they must reveal, on request, any corporate donors who gave £5,000 or more to the organisation over the past year or cease acting as a secretariat organisation. In 2014, following a query, the society refused to disclose this information and resigned its position as secretariat of the APPGs concerned in order to comply with the Rules.

So I think that's all anyone needs to know about this particular mouthpiece of corporate America.

ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual · 24/11/2018 05:38

I really hope there isn't a 'rift' between the brothers, as reported by the Sun. That would be such a shame. I can't imagine, really, what there would be to rift about - ostensibly both their lives seem very happy at the moment,

It could just be that H&M don't want to live in central London!

Frogmore House - H&M had their engagement photoshoot there and also their reception.
