I don't think Kate started the headband trend though, they've been around for a while on Insta "influencers".

Polyester isn’t what it used to be - have been pleasantly surprised on occasion....

SlipperOrchid · 06/03/2019 14:27

Thecraic Lol at the ‘princely’ sum. No pun intended. Made me chuckle 😀👍🏻

queenofarles · 06/03/2019 14:31

I think kate’s Headbands come from here

I don't like lurex but I like Maxima's dress and coat combo a lot apart from that. Very retro chic.

Prince CP of Sweden - possibly this is a nice but dim scenario. He's tried becoming the "design" prince but there was a minor scandal when all the stuff was designed by someone else. Haven't heard about the design stuff now for a long time.

Well, I fell down a rabbithole, and look what I found:

Harry looks at Megan like George looks at helicopters Grin

Naaawwwww all round Grin

ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual · 06/03/2019 15:33

That's great spudlet

Perdito I'm late to it but the bit of the video you pointed out last night - that aide looks a hoot full stop 😂

Also anyone else think Theresa May saw the Queen was wearing purple and though oooooh shit Grin. Woman just can't catch a break...

QueenOfTheAndals · 06/03/2019 15:51

Only one photo of Kate with her coat off.

In other news, a Cefinn brochure came through the door today. Which is odd as I've never ordered from them but have mentioned them several times on these threads as being good options for Meghan. I do like a lot of the designs but can't bring myself to purchase anything where the profits may somehow benefit David Cameron!

That is so lovely Spudlet

Notmyrealname855 · 06/03/2019 16:04

That’s so cute!

Also... have we had any recent pics of the Cambridge kids? Was the christening the last time we saw Louie?

itswinetime · 06/03/2019 16:22

Meghan looked good casual is definitely her strongest look lovely video of her and Harry. Kate's coat and what we can see of the dress also looking good she suits stringer darker colours in my opinion these ice blue and mint green colours of Kate aren't her friends!

I don't think you can compare formal and non formal events yes they all look more relaxed than at BP but then I think there is always a certain stiffness at those kinds of events!

Thedarklady · 06/03/2019 16:43

I loved Kate's coat today. The peacock print dress is quite nice but the boots are a no from me. She looks good in dark green.

I really like when she wears her hair up. Although, her hair looks a little bit dull and a tad damaged inside with lights on - which is when dark hair should look shiny or irridescent. Too much styling, heat and hair colouring (she has been every shade of brown and had reddish and fairer bits too)?

Loved Meghan's jacket and shoes. I like that the rest of the outfit was casual. Her bump looks quite small considering she isn't too far from her due date.

I know most of you are not DM readers, but there are articles being blatantly lifted from these threads.
Yesterday it was comparing the Duchesses’ make up and blusher at Prince Charles’ event.
Today it was multiple photos of Letizia in the Red Trouser suit.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 06/03/2019 17:00

I posted the photo just before 2pm. It was on the Mail we sire 45 minutes later; complete with spelling mistakes.

Notmyrealname855 · 06/03/2019 17:15

You should get getting payment!

Shall we start making up stories? The DM tries to make story lines out of pictures and short videos of the royals, as if it’s MiC or Towie. I’m going to pretend Kate and Megs are at war! Over colour schemes and who gets to wear what colour! And it’ll culminate in them both wearing the same colour - light mint! - to the same event...

Can I have 5 quid now please Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 06/03/2019 17:15

@thedarklady I thought she was due end of April, so she's got a while to go yet.

OP posts:
Notmyrealname855 · 06/03/2019 17:16

Imagine if the DM reported more about the causes and less about the blusher Hmm

ShakeYourTailFeathers · 06/03/2019 17:21

...or how much Meghan's outfit cost

DontCallMeCharlotte · 06/03/2019 17:27

Not feeling the Max love with that outfit today (shock horror - I really thought she could do no wrong!).

Whichever Belgian Royal's nephew that is, his bride's outfit is amazing! And of course the wee be-wellied bridesmaids are adorable.

Don't really like bodycon for pregnancy - sorry Queen so Meghan's a no for me today.

Leti's jacket with nothing underneath - a look beloved of Sky newsreaders. She's obviously channelling her former newsreader look...

Love Kate's dress today. The coat not so much.

itswinetime · 06/03/2019 17:36

Full length of Kate's dress today

I think that’s a dress which will get passed onto Pippa or Carole.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 06/03/2019 17:59

Kate has so many versions of this kind of dress

I loved the green floral dress, think it was Prada? The rest of them I can take or leave.
