As always, let's try to keep it light and avoid all spite...

Wow! getting worse really fast. DM link
Kate & William are going to spend Christmas at the Middletons, it is rumoured.
That is not surprising given there are 2 new babies in the Middleton family.
I am going to get flamed for this, but I am starting to feel there is no smoke without fire.
Tiaragate & Candlegate are nonsense stories.
However William’s concern about Harry rushing into his marriage are very believable. Also I can imagine Kate has sat Meghan down to try & guide her. But what makes no sense is why would Meghan refuse advice?
This is really not turning out well and if Meghan & Harry’s situation was posted in relationships; there would be red flags all over it.

@BettyBoo. Fair comment; I xposted. I will do my best to find some fashion shots!

Here is Max and the leaders wives on the final day of the G20 in Buenos Aires

Okay, not a lot going on Style wise with the Royal ladies.
Do you want to see what the Alisters are wearing on Celebrity Style?

Thanks for the pics curly yes it’s a bit quiet on the fashion front, going to have to dig into the archives and do a bit of reminiscing! Im going to hop over to celeb style to see what successes and downright horrors await me!

Brigitte Macron style rétrospective. I know she’s not Royal, but she is the First Lady of France.
Her hair has got amazingly thick since she became a First Lady.
Also her wardrobe is quite incredible. She has a very distinct style.

Sweet article on the royal grandchildren and Christmas trees.
...earlier this year in the documentary The Queen's Green Planet, Queen Elizabeth revealed that her great-grandchildren love to help decorate the Christmas tree in Buckingham Palace. The Queen said, "Yes, that is always the problem, is the children love knocking those [decorations] off. Well my great-grandchildren do, anyway they enjoy themselves."

Apparently Carole Middleton plays it safe by giving each grandchild his or her own tree to decorate.

On a fashion note has this been shared? Sorry if this has been discussed already I need to catch up on a few pages now.

Great link @AhoydelBoy.
You can see exactly what Kate is going to look like in hers 60s. The resemblance is incredible !
I love that they rewear each other’s clothes!

Carole comes across really well in her interview with Lisa Armstrong.

Re. MM and being disliked because of being a woman, to be fair to the MIG Prince Philip had a right old time with them too. Well according to The Crown and that surely is as accurate as anything ;)

So when do you think we may see some lovely Christmas card photos of the RF?

It’s great isn’t it. Though they are both maternity styles aren’t they (or at least a bigger size than what Kate would normally wear). Understandable Carole has a little more around the tummy

I don't think they are maternity, Goat just do a lot of those tunic style dresses.

Oh ok, Kate just sized up then perhaps.

That link didn’t work for me Curly.

But I’d want to spend Christmas with my mum rather than my in laws if I’d just had a baby & I absolutely adore my in laws!

I’m still wondering why Carole is giving all these interviews at the moment when she’s always been so discreet.

I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist but all this Kate v Meghan talk could be to keep the real news (Brexit) from being analysed.

It's not a distraction from Brexit. Nothing will distract from that.

With her background in parties, I bet Christmas at Carole's is awesome! Much more fun than stuffy Sandringham.

Queen Silvia looking very elegant at the Swedish embassy and then some sweet photos of her with Madeleine and her youngest child.

Madeleine is stunning and looks magnificent in full evening dress and tiara. 100 years ago she'd have definitely been a queen or crown princess by now!

Love the red dress on the woman beside B Macron!

Sorry link to BtigitteMacron Style

the woman beside B Macron!
That’s CP Mary. (See my link above)

Madeleine is absolutely beautiful.

Yes, Queen - I think one Royal Christmas would be interesting but then I think I would be over it ;) Christmas definitely isn't all about the children at Sandringham by the sounds of it.

i really Admire Carole. always looks impeccable.Karl Lagerfeld once said that she outshines her daughters. KL very rarely says a good thing about almost anybody.

Pippa did an interview with NBC a few years ago,it was very strange . there was talk of her joining the today show as a UK correspondent á la Jenna Bush but it fell through.

is it true christmas lunch is not that great at Sandringham?

Why is Carole Middleton speaking out?
So out of character since W&K got together.
What's the spin / angle ?

Exactly bean

Something is afoot!

Just read that link about Juan Carlos. Bit of a lech there. Then went down the wiki route of reading about his brother, grandparents etc

Thanks Curly, fab dress and colour!
