Sorry! I was in a meeting and dropped the ball.

Yes, from her father!

Both sisters are in an unenviable position. It’s not their fault they are a)princesses b) the children of Andrew!

I don’t like the shoes as such but I am impressed that she doesn’t bow to what must be considerable social pressure to always wear heels that must be excruciating with her back condition.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/09/2019 20:33

No, of course it's not their fault. But the whole thing must be beyond awkward for Eugenie given her involvement in the Anti-Slavery Collective, which attempts to stop human trafficking.

A photo of a young William randomly popped up on IG. He looks very like Diana in it.

That was in Williams brief hot hey day 🤣

Not necessary.

Here we have Leti looking extremely tanned! I think her hair and make up look amazing, but I don't think that the dress hangs properly on her - looks like it might slip open at any moment!

That dress would spark pregnancy rumours on Kate!
Agree it hangs very strangely.
Love her shoes though!

MotherofPearl · 18/09/2019 21:11

And Queen Sofia looking very chic indeed I think.

Gosh, William does look very handsome in that photo @QueenOfTheAndals. I wonder which of his children will end up most resembling him. The Windsor genes have certainly come more to the fore as he has aged.

Totally agree about Leti's shoes.

Lunde · 18/09/2019 21:16

Leti's white dress looks a bit like it has been inspired by a hospital gown!

AppleKatie · 18/09/2019 21:27

Leti does look gorgeous but agree about the way the dress hangs. In the pic with her hand across her stomach it’s got a bit of a ‘spa day’ vibe!

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/09/2019 21:33

I don't like the white dress but it shows her tan off to perfection!

I think he is very handsome, still. Princess Charlotte is most like him.

The Norwegians and the swedes hanging out.
I could totally see Meghan in Mary’s skirt; but not the jacket.

Sorry, Danes, not Norwegians!

Daisypie · 18/09/2019 21:54

It's the Danes and Swedes.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/09/2019 21:58

Hasn't Meghan already got a skirt like that @CurlyWurlyTwirly? She loves a pleated skirt. CPV's dress blends into her skin tone too much and Daniel is starting to look like a Bond villain!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/09/2019 22:02

I love Prince Daniel, he never changes his look. He is the devoted Prince Consort.
To think he was a buff personal trainer before he was princified.

Yes @QueenOfTheAndals Meghan has got a similar club Monaco skirt; but I think she should treat herself to a second one!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/09/2019 22:03

Ok, despite the peeing issue, really like this jumpsuit on CP Mary

itswinetime · 18/09/2019 22:06

The skirt is similar to the one Meghan wore to Wimbledon .....or at least that was the first think I thought of when I saw it.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/09/2019 22:19

I’d forgotten about the Wimbledon skirt @itswinetime; you’re right.
The club Monaco I was thinking of is actually a dress.

I don't think it necessarily bothers Meghan (or Kate, for that matter) that they already have something similar in their wardrobes.

Certainly not like the rest of us mere mortals.

Think green overcoats, endless McQueen coat dresses, repeated navy Givenchy...

I like the grey 3/4 length coat Prince Frederik is wearing in the last of Curly's photos. The contrast on the pocket makes it a bit more modern than a standard overcoat.
Frederik has a kind face. A few weeks back someone posted a video of Mary doing a speech for his birthday and he took her gentle teasing of his quirky habits as well as her praise of him in good grace. He just looked so adoring of her as she made her speech.

GotToGoMyOwnWay · 19/09/2019 06:42

I think William is still extremely good looking.

Thanks for posting those photos Curly
