I once saw the DoC referred to as Princess Shiny Locks, and to be honest that's how I often think of her. She has great hair. I covet it.

AhoyDelBoy · 29/11/2018 21:04

Priyanka Chopra is getting married this weekend. Apparently security will be tight and guests will have to sign a confidentiality agreement! Will Meghan be there?

It's an odd coupling, I must admit. I've always preferred younger men but Nick Jonas looks about 14!

Great thread title Smile

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 29/11/2018 21:13

Wowzers, those hairstyles! I quite like the title Princess Shiny Locks!

PawneeParksDept · 29/11/2018 21:17

I think I read she won't be

She is nearly 6 months

India is a long flight and then there's disease issues (though that didn't stop them with Fiji)

@Spudlet One thing Paul Burrell said about HM is that she isn't in the least grand. I know he's not the most reliable of sources but that I find easy to believe. Princess Margaret, now she'd have been one for acting the grande dame!

Its such a weird coupling that there rumours of bearding co tracts

QueenOfTheAndals · 29/11/2018 21:21

Sansa from Game of Thrones is engaged to another Jonas so she and Priyanka will be SiLs.

I love those highlights and half up half Down hairdos.

I have a Queen story. My mum has a friend whose son in law is involved in training/racing and was dealing with one of the Queen's horses. He had to tell her on the phone that a horse was injured and couldn't race and she said "bugger". Hard to believe but they all swear it is true.

AhoyDelBoy · 29/11/2018 21:56

Kate before she was a Duchess. I think along with hair extensions for body she’s also had teeth whitening. Fair play too her!

AhoyDelBoy · 29/11/2018 21:57

Quantumblue yes I’d be saying bugger in that situation too.

AhoyDelBoy · 29/11/2018 21:58

Yes there was an article linked in the last thread about Meghan not attending the wedding as I remember.

AhoyDelBoy · 29/11/2018 21:58

Where is Curly? 🤔

LollyLollington · 29/11/2018 22:03

I think in her later years Diana was athletic but slightly thicker around the waist in a way that used to be acceptable/normal for women in their 30s. Not so for poor old meg and Kate now!

TheCraicDealer · 29/11/2018 22:04

Pictures of DoC during "the breakup" in 2007- she looks lovely, but seems to have half the hair she had in the engagement photos! Definitely extensions and a wonderful blowdry there. Link to the article.

Interesting link to KM’s shoes. I reckon some of the suede ones, especially the boots and booties, are her own free choices from pre-marriage. I’ve loads of designer and LK Bennett shoes (from when I was younger and a good few years before KM became known), which I still wear and which are still in excellent condition. Quality lasts.

That probably goes for Anne’s clothes. They were probably jolly expensive at the time, and not highly stylised. So if they still fit and are in good condition, why not wear them?

mirren3 · 29/11/2018 22:37

Love those old pics of DoC, I'm a big fan of hers when she's not as slim looking.

Haworthia · 29/11/2018 22:49

Eugenie has been getting about a bit post-wedding, hasn’t she? It probably is to keep her profile up, but I can’t help also thinking I’d jump at the chance of a few evening engagements with free drinks and canapés, even if I wasn’t a working Royal in the daytime Grin

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 29/11/2018 23:00

Yes I agree I think she may have extensions, her hair is way less full in this picture, still nice though.
