I think Kate looks tired in that photo. Its like she's used a lot of Touche Eclat.
I've done similar Smile

Wasnt this in 2013? After the birth of Gorge?

StCharlotte · 31/10/2019 19:35

I agree she looks a bit puffy maybe but still very lovely.

hopeishere · 31/10/2019 19:52

What's the side eye photo?

The Catherine Walker black velvet coat was from November 2017, she would have been pregnant with Louis.

The two times she looked tired to me were when Louis was a baby, see photos - eyebags from a lack of sleep. I really like last year's Alexander McQueen coat (middle picture).

I think Kate looks beautiful with the tiny bit of extra weight pregnancy puts on her face. Last year's coat was very severe but I liked it until someone on Twitter pointed out that it looked like a Salvation Army uniform!

I really didn’t like the coat with the white collar.

pastaparadise · 31/10/2019 21:24

She looks beautiful in this pic, but i cant stop looking at the weird pose theyre doing with their hands. Especially his.

They’ve been posed to make it look a particular way. And (he especially!) is awkward and uncomfortable with the ‘ballet hands’ effect the photographer is going for.

The top of the shot is spot on, but it’s lost it’s way at the bottom half. Tbh I feel the same about the outfits.

But perhaps I’m just miserable tonight!

@peridito you’re a valued member of the threads. I hope you feel better soon.

@BertrandRussell I’d buy you a pint also👍. And a measure. An Irish measure which is by definition 25% more measure than its English counterpart. 🍺

I personally don't get the love for Caroline or Charlotte of Monaco - both of them should lay off the dramatic red lipstick imo.

Olivia Colman getting her CBE ( wearing Emilia Wickstead)
Nice to see princess Anne officiating

I’m afraid that coat does nothing for Olivia Colman. I’ve seen her in RL (at the swimming pool at Centre Parcs) and she is teeny tiny. And are this shoes mules? How can she walk in them Shock . I would be shuffling along with them.

Has anyone see Andy Pandy recently? It will be interesting to see where he is placed in the balcony in Remembrance Sunday.

Will we see Harry tomorrow in Japan?

AppleKatie · 01/11/2019 06:49

I think you have to be teeny tiny to pull off a dress like that- anyone bigger would look like the back end of a bus. (Trust me I have experience of looking like busses 😉)

I think she looks great, not super slim obviously but conversely because she is she doesn’t need to look it. Does that make any sense at all or am I waffling?

hopeishere · 01/11/2019 07:47

Lovely video of Meghan on the Sussex Instagram. Wearing flats and jeans. Lovely happy smiley and engaged with what's she's doing.

Honestly her and Kate are both such assets to the royal family.

IfWishesWereFishes · 01/11/2019 07:58

@AppleKatie I think thats right. I don't know why even the slimmest among us are supposed to feel compelled to demonstrate their thinness at all times. Maybe she just liked the coat.

BigGreenOlives · 01/11/2019 08:05

I’ve seen those shoes in Selfridges & never tried them on, I don’t know how you walk in them.

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/11/2019 08:11

Meghan at the opening of a new branch of Luminary Bakery. She looks v relaxed and happy and, as usual, has hot casual wear nailed.

That's a lovely little video. What a place!

AppleKatie · 01/11/2019 08:56

Ah what a lovely video. She looks great.

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/11/2019 09:02

Hot casual wear nailed? Got casual wear nailed!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 01/11/2019 09:09

I liked Meghan’s trainers.
I just wish she and the other ladies in the bakery would tie their hair back properly when baking....

TSSDNCOP · 01/11/2019 09:21

Nothing says Insta moment like a blue hairnet though Curly Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 01/11/2019 09:37

I'm sure they do @CurlyWurlyTwirly but not for a photo op!
