Link to previous thread

Link to book group thread, which has the list of books.

And in case you get bored of the royals or they're having a quiet week, here's the Celebrity S&G thread!

Remember, let's critique the clothes without getting too personal about the wearers.

yy prime I like it too.

ImBattlingOn · 12/02/2019 20:02

The close up photos on twitter show there’s no tights.

PrimeExample · 12/02/2019 20:06

Tights or not is less relevant, it’s just nice to see a proper bump in the photos and not some skinny minnie pretending to be perfect and not to be pregnant! She is proper blimpy, which is joyous!

PrimeExample · 12/02/2019 20:08

Also - I thought from those pics on Twitter that she may be wearing very thin tights. I am dark and my legs look like hers in very thin tights.

RatherBeRiding · 12/02/2019 20:09

It could have been a good look if only the dress fitted. Even a bit. But it fits so badly it's hard to focus on anything else!

I quite like the olive shoes and bag and the hair is spot on - thank goodness she seems to have got over the messy bun, which I felt was just inappropriate for professional engagements.

DontCallMeCharlotte · 12/02/2019 20:13

I love her hair and I love the coat. She's wasting her money on the dresses though.

Poor love hasn't even got a neat boy bump that she could dress like Curly's Parisiennes. On the plus side, at least She's not holding her it Smile

DontCallMeCharlotte · 12/02/2019 20:14

Actually, in the first picture, has she got the bump on sideways?!

DontCallMeCharlotte · 12/02/2019 20:21

Me again. Sorry she is clinging on for dear life in one of the pics. And who can blame her at this stage? I'll get back in my box.

Horsemad · 12/02/2019 20:25

Lol @DontCallMeCharlotte! 😆

SirVixofVixHall · 12/02/2019 20:30

Someone buy her a properly cut maternity coat ! Since the beginning she has worn coats that don’t meet over her bump, why ? She is spending so much money on clothes, yet nothing fits. The colour suits her, and although i am not a fan of very shiny faces or legs, (or naked limbs in Winter), she has that lovely radiantly healthy look of a woman near the end of pregnancy. Agree the neckline doesn’t work on her, and the super high heels look strange on someone so pregnant, but the cream looks glamourous and lovely against her gorgeous colouring.

People would probably whinge about her wasting money on buying new coats that she might never wear again if she did. She doesn't spend much time outside on these visits. I'd rather spunk the cash on the clothes. And not give a shit if the public is offended by my penchant for bodycon.

SirVixofVixHall · 12/02/2019 20:36

She has a decent gap above the bump for someone short waisted, surely she can’t have all that long to go ? I will be very surprised if that baby is due late April /early May as stated. My second baby was due then, and being the second I was bigger earlier, but I think Meghan looks further on than I did that February.
I am tall though.

MaddieElla · 12/02/2019 20:38

Love the coat. Her skin and make up is beautiful.

But that dress. Dear God the dress.

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/02/2019 20:41

👏🏼👏🏼 @AFifthOfKoolAid.Whilst I'm not keen on this particular dress, I have no issue at all with pregnant women opting for a bodycon silhouette. If that's what she likes then good for her!

MaddieElla · 12/02/2019 20:44

Her bump looks off to the left though. Confused Might be the terrible fit of the dress.

Notanotheruser111 · 12/02/2019 20:49

It could actually be how the baby is positioned. I can remember my bump being awfully weird looking sometimes

CaptainBrickbeard · 12/02/2019 20:55

I’m so addicted to lurking on these threads even though I didn’t think I was particularly interested in the Royal Family.

I sort of see what people mean about Meghan’s outfit, but if one photo in the world existed of me looking one tenth that good, I would frame it and plaster the walls of my house with it. She looks so bounteously, gloriously pregnant.

I really liked Kate’s one shoulder dress but now I’ve seen it with the sash, the flowers look all wrong to me.

AFifthOfKoolAid · 12/02/2019 21:00

Are we really analysing the lopsidedness off her bump? As Notanotheruser says, foetuses move. A pregnant body need not be perfect symmetry.

CourageCalls · 12/02/2019 21:03

She looks absolutely stunning! She is obviously a very beautiful women but she is 8/9 months pregnant and she looks like that. Agree with others though hate the dress the neckline is so wrong. To me bump looks a little high still so think she prob still has a month to go. I'm guessing March 25th Smile anyone up for a sweepstake ?? Wink

queenofarles · 12/02/2019 21:04

I actually think that for once the dress fits well, Grin
I had the weirdest bump with DS, I wok up one day with my bump being on the left too.

I really don't think it's Safe to fly at this stage She must be in her 3rd trimester, plus they have to take it into consideration that probably the good hospitals are in the capital and God forbid something goes wrong while they are over there and no close hospitals are within easy reach .

EstrellaDamn · 12/02/2019 21:10

I can't be arsed critiquing a heavily pregnant woman. By that point in my pregnancies I was lumbering about like god knows what.

She looks gorgeously pregnant and happy, I'm leaving it there.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 12/02/2019 21:13

I thought it looked like her bump had dropped. If it’s an April baby, it’s got to be very early.
H&M must be flying by private jet to Morocco.
I guess it’s about a 3 hour flight, but I wouldn’t want to be overseas that close to giving birth...

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/02/2019 21:14

I think you can fly up to 37 weeks so I'm sure it'll be fine. There's no itinerary been released yet but as it's just a few days I don't think they'll be venturing far from cities.
