DD4's hair is hip length. No fringe. She's 5. It's wavy and caramel coloured. I see my DM eyeing it sometimes fantasizing about a quick snip. She wont though. She did it to DD3 (cut a fringe in when it had just taken weeks and weeks to finish growing out) and both me and DD3 were v cross!

DM was about 70 at the time so old enough to know better! Hmm

Haha at the hair cutting! OMG I wouldn't dare. 😆

StCharlotte that's hilarious Grin

My daughter has gorgeous blond curly hair and when she was little I realised one morning that she'd cut off all the baby hair curls round her face! I was so cross I told her "that's it, you are NOT to touch the scissors again" and her little brother piped up in amazement "what....EVER?" Grin

Looks a bit darker and grittier than the other 2 seasons. Out next Sunday 17th
StCharlotte · 09/11/2019 17:21

Nearly 40 years on I think she's come round.

Worse, I refused to apologise as I thought I'd done her a massive favour. Imagine these are the before and after pictures (after with fringe). Who was BU eh?!

First photos of tonight are on the DM. Meghan's makes up is flawless. Kate's in a padded hair band!

QueenOfTheAndals · 09/11/2019 19:39

Kate's out-poppying everyone tonight!

Apart from the Queen! She's wearing five or six!

TokyoSushi · 09/11/2019 19:56

Gorgeous make up and shoes from Meghan tonight, another belted dress which looks a bit curtain like. She definitely looks pregnant or sgss really not lost the baby weight. Not judging, neither have I and my baby is nearly 7!

Lovely dress for Kate but the hairband and the black tights are a no for me.

TokyoSushi · 09/11/2019 19:59

Sophie Wessex also looking lovely, very volumised hair!

hopeishere · 09/11/2019 20:00

Yeah her dress looks navy but the band and tights look black. From the DM pic it looks like Megan and Harry are in a different box.

MrsGrindah · 09/11/2019 20:08

Kate looks stunning but the tights are awful. Meghan looks stunning but wouldn’t be surprised if pregnant again.

Lunde · 09/11/2019 20:09

I see the Queen is in a box with Will & Kate, Charles & Camilla, Anne & Tim, Edward and Sophie. Did Andrew get told not to come? Or did they stick him behind a pillar?

Lunde · 09/11/2019 20:11

I really like Meghan's dress but it looks like it needs something at the neckline.

queenofarles · 09/11/2019 20:13

They both look lovely,

Imagine having to sit and listen to James Blunt and Leona Lewis, Don’t envy them one bit Grin

Amanduh · 09/11/2019 20:13

Kate looks lovely, not sure about the tights but it is freezing. Her dress is great. Meghan’s is awful but she’s pretty as always. I think she’s pregnant.

Amanduh · 09/11/2019 20:14

Andrew is there and in the Royal Box. Harry and Meghan are in the Royal Box too, behind Charles and Camilla, sort of to the side. It’s a angle of only half of the box.

MotherofPearl · 09/11/2019 20:21

I think Meghan's dress is all wrong for her - the skirt is far too voluminous. Her hair and make up look lovely as ever.

Kate looks okay but for some unknown reason I really dislike navy and black together. And I can do without the headband.

paradyning · 09/11/2019 20:21

Love Anne's slash of red lippy

bohemia14 · 09/11/2019 20:25

I don't like Kate's overall look tonight. The black tights look very dated and the headband is very 1980s Sloane Ranger. She looks older than her years and a bit frumpy. Meghan looks lovely although I think her dress shows a bit too much flesh for a Remembrance event.

Sophie looks great and the Queen gets it just right, as always.

thisenglishlife · 09/11/2019 20:35

Harry looks good! The dress is too big for Meghan but the fabric detail is just beautiful. Kate's in a nice but boring dress... and she's at the headbands again!

I have a hunch KC’s tights don’t look as garish away from the camera flash. Love be MS’s neckline, but will say again yet heavy fabric belted is NOT her friend at present.

Loving the jaunty lippy on PA and HMQ. They look delightfully skittish and Angela’s gone to town with HMQ’s poppy/brooch combo.

Roll on the balcony scene tomorrow. Whilst obvs noting the solemnity of the occasion.

AdaColeman · 09/11/2019 20:55

I like Meg's dress, beautiful fabric, and think the style suits her, but it wasn't quite correct for a Remembrance Service. Kate looked a bit ordinary, but dressed for the occasion.
Camilla was lovely in velvet and her pearls, she didn't look very well though. I loved Anne's pearl earrings...big as gobstoppers!

Andy was there sitting next to Boris, I wonder who did the seating plan?

How did all that hair that Meg was engulfed in the other day, all fit into her tiny little bun tonight?

I think Angela has gone overboard with the poppies tonight, too many Gin Gin Gin sssss maybe!

QueenOfTheAndals · 09/11/2019 20:59

It's not a service though @AdaColeman, more a concert.
