@itswinetime Shall we hazard a guess? My money is on an LK Bennett dress (possibly a rewear - the green spotty number?) and suede pumps.

Not sure that a beard suits Wax! And I really want to like Max's skirt but it looks like it needs ironing. And I hate bags with chains, so that's a No too but on the whole I love her look - especially the hat.

Always up for a good game of guess the outfit! I agree it will be high street! The green/blue spotty dress was the first that came to mind. However she has been found of trousers lately so maybe something like this??

Found of trousers Blush maybe she has just found them in her epic wardrobe but I think fond is probably more accurate Wink

Well H and M are on tour in a few weeks. I think M will be slender again and rocking some colourful outfits and a bit of a safari look.

They really are as thick as mince.

Kate's school run outfit? A onesie and a pair of crocs!

“An interesting take on the word “occasionally”.

What- 1:100? That looks pretty occasional to me!

Were there not four flights by private jet in pretty quick succession? Work out the probability.

“Were there not four flights by private jet in pretty quick succession? Work out the probability.”
Are you saying that he’s lying? He might be-but it seems unlikely. And those 4 flights were with the baby. Maybe it was on the advice of the security people?

NoTheresa · 03/09/2019 15:59

Are you saying that he’s lying?
Confused

The information is in the public arena, no?

I'm fond of Kate's trousers.

I'd never be found in them though.

megletthesecond · 03/09/2019 16:36

I think the DoC might go for skinnies, flats and a blazer for Charlottes first day.

BertrandRussell · 03/09/2019 16:39

“The information is in the public arena, no?“

Absolutely it is. Which is why, even though he’s not the sharpest knife in the box, he would be unlikely to say 99% of his flights were commercial if they weren’t.

BertrandRussell · 03/09/2019 16:40

“I think the DoC might go for skinnies, flats and a blazer for Charlottes first day.”

My betting’s in wedges.

megletthesecond · 03/09/2019 16:41

Good call bert.

QueenOfTheAndals · 03/09/2019 16:43

Has Kate ever worn flats apart from trainers for sporty engagements? She's wedded to her wedges!

@BertrandRussell

My point is this: given that FOUR recent flights were private, it doesn’t take a Maths whizz to work out that, if the current usage of private flights continues, the 99% figure will no longer apply.

God, thisis laborious.)

NoTheresa · 03/09/2019 17:08

(God, this is laborious. And tedious. And tiring.)

BertrandRussell · 03/09/2019 17:09

But the 4 recent flights were the only flights they have taken with the baby. It is reasonable to assume a security risk of some sort surely? There is no suggestion that they are going to carry on taking 4 private jets every 3 weeks.

BertrandRussell · 03/09/2019 17:11

“God, this is laborious. And tedious. And tiring.)“
And not compulsory.

queenofarles · 03/09/2019 17:21

What about the Google summit jet? It doesn’t count?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 03/09/2019 17:22

Just my 2 pennoth.
I just think H&M are just being rather pfb over Archie at the moment. They've flown easy jet plenty of times.

Interestingly Nicolas Witchell; Royal correspondent on the news said Harry is famously thin skinned towards criticism.

Gooseysgirl · 03/09/2019 17:33

I think it'll be a midi dress and the oul trusty wedges

NoTheresa · 03/09/2019 17:39

And not compulsory.

As usual, you do little more than state the obvious. 😴

QueenOfTheAndals · 03/09/2019 17:41

@Gooseysgirl Agree re the dress - the green spotted one has a schoolmarm vibe and we all know Kate's a literal dresser...
