Link to previous thread. And not a moment too soon!

Kate's coat dress is a smidge too short.

Paradyning · 19/03/2019 12:35

Not for showing her knees or any other such ancient crap but more for the overall balance of the outfit, I hasten to add.

QueenOfTheAndals · 19/03/2019 12:36

Oh FGS, I just realised I walked right past Bush House about 15 minutes ago and didn't even notice! Ah well, Kate and HM would've been inside by then.

DOC has several of the same pairs of shoes too including Gianvito Rossi suede ones.

Kate's coat from today is from Catherine Walker but she already had another grey Catherine Walker one from the end of last November. She could have had a rewear with her lovely C Walker grey/silver dress.

I dont like flippy skirts but DoC looks good- the grey and black combo makes it more stylish. Queen again looks great.

Thedarklady · 19/03/2019 12:37

The coat from Nov 2018

The coat today is an improvement on the last similar one with fussy collar and buttons

QueenOfTheAndals · 19/03/2019 12:41

I don't get why you'd spend ££££ on clothes that look very similar to something you already own. Meghan comes in for a lot of criticism for what she spends on clothes but Kate spends just as much, only you can't tell the difference as it all looks the same! 2 bespoke CW coats that looks alike, 6 or 7 very similar coats for St Patrick's Day?? At least branch out a bit!

This one has more of a tulip shape, not the usual flippy one.

I thought she looked really good.

Elllllle · 19/03/2019 12:44

I think they are improving with each reiteration. I hope she donates the older omes though.

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 19/03/2019 12:52

Oh it’s not a tulip shape, very deep pleats though.

So much better than the D&G one.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/03/2019 12:58

Rebecca English said the news made her spit out her tea

I don’t think it’s a long heralded joint visit by HM and Kate.
Someone’s gay.
Someone’s engaged
????

Someone's gay AND engaged?

"But there is not often that something passes across my desk that makes me almost spit out my tea. In a good way!"

It could easily be the photos of Catherine and the Queen sharing a blanket... I guess we will find out.

QueenOfTheAndals · 19/03/2019 13:01

She's just tweeted to say Kate has become patron of the Foundling Museum (she's visiting there later today) but that's hardly news to inspire spitting out of tea.

Love these threads, I generally only read them though.

I like the flippy skirts but I agree - coat dress 😴😴

Also - why are they sharing a blanket in the car?? Do their cars not have heating??!

mrscampbellblackagain · 19/03/2019 13:02

I think the flippy skirts work well when sitting down etc - no chance of flashing too much thigh.

They all spend a lot on clothes and to be fair I tend to buy similar cuts and colours as I know what works on me. I get that it would be nice to see more re-wears but then this thread would be very dull Wink

ElspethFlashman · 19/03/2019 13:02

Couldn't agree more Queen

RE is just being a tease about something really dull, I suspect.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/03/2019 13:02

Kate has been made Patron of the Foundling museum
It’s closed today. Maybe She’s going there next?

mrscampbellblackagain · 19/03/2019 13:03

Kate is to host a baby shower for Meghan and the Queen is going to attend and Carole is doing the party décor. That's my guess Wink

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/03/2019 13:03

X post with @Queen

MarkleSparkle · 19/03/2019 13:04

They’re going to livestream the birth?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/03/2019 13:05

Kate is to host a baby shower for Meghan and the Queen is going to attend and Carole is doing the party décor.

That would send my tea flying Grin

Notmyrealname855 · 19/03/2019 13:05

Think James Middleton got married in secret! That’s my guess - would assume he’s engaged but to spit out tea must mean something of a surprise

Or Bea is engaged?

QueenOfTheAndals · 19/03/2019 13:05

Alas she said nowt to do with babies @MarkleSparkle

Fergie and Andrew are remarrying and have a reality TV show deal?
