Tour itinerary

As always, let's critique the clothes and not the wearers.

She looks amazing in that jumpsuit! She’s hit her stride today!

ChardonnaysDistantCousin · 25/09/2019 13:30

Love the jumpsuit.

TSSDNCOP · 25/09/2019 13:38

Well, they’ve nailed it today!

AdaColeman · 25/09/2019 13:42

Fab jumpsuit! It's a good fit for her too! I don't think the shoes really work with it though.

BertrandRussell · 25/09/2019 13:43

I remember at a parents evening once, ds’s teacher looked up from talking about his work, saw someone coming in carrying twins and called out “Babies! Can they be brought here please???” and had a cuddle before handing them back and carrying on. Looks like Desmond Tutu would have done the same!

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 25/09/2019 13:45

I think the reason Archie looks like both sides of the family is because Meghan and Harry also look quite alike. They both have that scooped nose, close set eyes and broad jaw. You could look at Archie and see Harry as a baby, but also there's a definite Markle streak.

They look like they're all having a ball, seems like a highly successful tour so far.

Crabonastick · 25/09/2019 13:50

Loving the jumpsuit!

frugalkitty · 25/09/2019 13:53

I really like the jumpsuit, but agree that it's not quite right with the shoes. I think it would look better with flats. Fab look overall though.

MayaWhySoDown · 25/09/2019 14:02

She looks great in the family pics, but I also agree that the jumpsuit would look better with flats and I'm also not keen on the tie belt. I don't like them generally tbh.

BertrandRussell, I love that story re the teacher and the babies! My usually pretty stern and highly profession boss surprised me so much the day he cuddled a colleagues new baby. It was lovely!

MayaWhySoDown · 25/09/2019 14:03

Her skin is just incredible

Colleague's

Excuse dreadful grammar; I'm on my phone.

ThingsImighthavedone · 25/09/2019 14:05

It's heartwarming to see all three together. Gorgeous baby, he does look like Harry. Love the jumpsuit and the dress.

I was thinking that today. I think loads of couples look alike - I’d love to read more info about why we are attracted to our own likenesses, Esp when most people aren’t completely happy with how they look themselves. Familiarity I suppose?

MM is like me long legs, short waisted and short overall. I had a peek at the clothes she wore on Suits, and at other gatherings. She knows what suits her, looks fab in above the knee clothing, tightly fitted clothing, but obviously feels she needs a more modest look for RF work. It is fine for her tall, leggy SIL and somewhat unfair to compare them. Meghan is more real, height wise and body shape than Kate as far as the general population goes.

She is a little pocket venus like Eva Longoria and looks good when she follows the dress code that suits her height and shape. I was looking at gallery pics. on IMDB the white shirt stands her in good stead as do all fitted clothes.

ItsJustTheOneSwanActually · 25/09/2019 14:16

Great pics today - loved her dress. Archie is scrumptious.

AdaColeman · 25/09/2019 14:18

I think the tie belts highlight that Meghan is high waisted, short from shoulder to waist, so the tie belts make her look a little bit out of proportion.

TokyoSushi · 25/09/2019 15:09

Love the jumpsuit! Two good looks today!

skippy67 · 25/09/2019 15:30

Love the jumpsuit, and think it works perfectly with the heels. She looks fantastic.

NoTheresa · 25/09/2019 15:31

Meghan looks great in the jumpsuit.

QueenOfTheAndals · 25/09/2019 16:01

Meghan at the Mothers2Mothers event. She's donated some of Archie's old clothes to them.

And I think that's all we'll see of her til next Monday now as Harry's solo engagements are taking priority. She has a private meeting tomorrow but we may or may not get photos from that.

Meghan's outfits are lovely today, especially the blue dress. Harry's blue suit also looks much smarter on him than the grey ones he's worn of late.
Archie is just scrumptious and does remind me of Harry as a baby although, as others have said, he has a look of the Markle side too.

QueenOfTheAndals · 25/09/2019 16:11

Archie vs Harry

This is a genuine question, not a bitchy one as I think Archie is adorable, but does it appear to anyone else that he has esotropia? Lady Louise has it and it has a hereditary component.

BertrandRussell · 25/09/2019 16:44

Is that a squint? I was wondering that too.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 25/09/2019 16:45

Yes, I think so, I noticed it. Sometimes eye problems are more obvious in photos, that’s how I noticed one in my DC.

Although I’m sure they will have access to the best ophthalmic consultants.
