I agree about the use of maiden names by the press. And I hate the Americanisation “Prime Minister Johnson” rather than the correct “Mr Johnson”.

TokyoSushi · 10/11/2019 21:46

Get Priti flippin Patel off these threads!!!

goes off to google JC wife!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 10/11/2019 21:49

Why don’t the press call them Duchess Kate and Duchess Meg

SunsetBoulevard3 · 10/11/2019 21:53

My pet hat is Queen Elizabeth. I mean, there is only one Queen in my book , but of course there are other monarchies!! Duchess Kate and Duchess Meghan just makes me cringe.

SunsetBoulevard3 · 10/11/2019 21:54

hate not hat!!

frugalkitty · 10/11/2019 22:09

Actually, frogging is a crochet term for undoing your work when you've gone wrong....you pull the end of the wool and 'rip it, rip it' back to where it went wrong Grin

Poor old Cherie Blair tried the belted coat look, not a success on her sadly. You really need to be tall and very slim to get away with this look.

You "frog' knitting too when you unravel it rapidly.

My husband went out this morning wearing a practically identical outfit to Prince William. Safe to say it's unlikely I'll ever be wearing the same outfit as the Duchess!

alliwantisagoodnightssleep · 10/11/2019 22:28

When William becomes Prince of Wales will Catherine be Catherine Princess of Wales like Diana was. I think Camilla can use that title but chooses not to for obvious reasons.

QueenOfTheAndals · 10/11/2019 22:31

No, she'll just be HRH The Princess of Wales. She'll only be Catherine, Princess of Wales if they divorce.

I'm a bit shocked to see Priti P on this thread.
This is a style thread.

Even if she were Naomi Campbell's doppelgänger, wearing head-to-toe Chanel 24-7, Priti would still have none. Her own words ensure that.

I won't undermine the thread further; but (particularly, as I'm Irish) I consider her to be the antithesis of style and grace.

TSSDNCOP · 10/11/2019 22:45

Corbyon wed three times shock

Either he’s the funniest person ever or greatest shag on earth.

Likewise BJ.

You just wouldn’t touch either of them with someone else’s.

Mrs C looked smashing.

frugalkitty · 10/11/2019 22:48

TSSDNCOP and it's with the mental image of Jeremy and Boris being a 'great shag' that I go to bed......thanks chum, I'm really hoping I don't have any dodgy dreams tonight! Grin

AngelaScandal · 10/11/2019 23:11

repulsed by Priti ‘starve the Irish’ Patel both politically and stylistically

queenofarles · 10/11/2019 23:40

Don’t think Corbyn is that funny , so maybe it’s his bedroom moves?

GemmeFatale · 11/11/2019 06:35

He takes over £130k in salary and is reported to be worth a couple of million. Maybe it’s the money

BertrandRussell · 11/11/2019 06:46

If you were going to marry a politician for money, you wouldn't pick him!

Wetdogloveshubert · 11/11/2019 07:11

Throwback to 2015, when Max won the hat stakes. And a beautiful picture of her just to show where real style happens Grin

And purely for hat comparison, of course.

Corbyn also managed to pull Diane Abbott in the 70s! People laugh at that but she was stunning back then.

And back to royal style now. Lovely photo of Meghan there.

I love that picture of Max in the ochre with the pheasant feather hat.
I do however think her shoes are her weak point.
With her height, why would she need that stripper platform on her shoe?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/11/2019 07:32

Diane Abbot was no Naomi Campbell.

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/11/2019 07:32

No she wasn't but she was an attractive woman and he was definitely punching.

OP posts:
AppleKatie · 11/11/2019 07:38

TBF you’d be hard pushed to find a women he wasn’t punching with.

Nope I don’t understand it.

Meghan looked beautiful all weekend, there was a real old school Hollywood glamour vibe.
