I have a generally low tolerance level for gushing Grin I try to avoid it where possible!

In another life, Dame Angelina Jolie could have been a wonderful royal.

Been a busy few days I'm very behind nice to see Kate really promoting the survey all over fashion wise it was appropriate but boring in my opinion.

I agree it was the black jumpsuit from the SA tour which I love I didn't watch all the video that style of videos I hate...it's not Meghan or what they are talking about it it's the whole just 2 besties chatting vibe it's fake and it makes it feel like what they are saying must be fake even when there is every chance it's not...not for me.

Watched that Vogue thingy - Vom - sooo fake.

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/02/2020 17:00

I didn't think it was particularly fake, just very fashion-y. I think it's the nature of the industry and the people who work in it.

Kate’s kiddies makes me cringe too.

frugalkitty · 14/02/2020 18:52

I hadn't realised that Meghan was the one to ask to guest edit, I assumed she'd been approached rather than doing the approaching. I loved that black jumpsuit.

Spudlet · 14/02/2020 19:06

I can’t hear the word ‘kiddies’ without thinking of Vernon Crumley from The Hogfather...

beanaseireann · 14/02/2020 19:11

Kiddies is probably used at Party Pieces as a sub section of their Kids section. For the younger kids children.

I hate the term kids as well as kiddies.

@frugalkitty my NY friend would have pushed herself forward to do the vogue thing. We brits are not so good at putting ourselves out there. Meghan is only doing what any self respecting USA girl would do. Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/02/2020 19:22

I thought she was approached by Vogue to be on the cover and asked to guest edit instead?

Me too @beanaseireann. I say children though some people think it's a bit Hmm

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/02/2020 19:47

I don't mind kids but kiddies 😬

Ooh The Hogfather. That was good.

mrscampbellblackagain · 14/02/2020 19:55

Kiddies annoys all the posh people who regard it as common. I've read my Jilly Cooper Wink

The MM issue of vogue was very discounted - I assume that makes a difference to sales. Can't believe Jameela Jamil was on that cover - I loathe her. She is a bully.

mrscampbellblackagain · 14/02/2020 19:56

I also don't get the judgement about botox. I have botox and have for about 10 years, also dabble with fillers and profhilo - expertly done with a light touch and I think they are fab. I doubt there are many women in the public eye who don't dabble.

EmGee · 14/02/2020 20:31

Just finished reading Lady Anne Glenconner's memoir. Very readable indeed! Princess Margaret comes across very well, they were obviously close friends.

FiveTwoFaster · 14/02/2020 22:42

I wasn’t judging about botox - I was impressed with it - I have it myself and once you have had it once you instantly realise who has and hasn’t. A friend told me that years ago and I thought she was exaggerating but the first time I had it done a couple of years ago I got it. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it at all - I assume she gets her teeth whitened and cleaned and I don’t see it any differently!

Freeshavocado · 14/02/2020 22:58

More info coming out about Andrew in the papers tomorrow, the cynic in me wonders if that's explains why the announcement has come re Megan and Harry sacking staff

itswinetime · 14/02/2020 23:24

Award for the the most stupid newspaper article of all time goes to....

I know it's not fashion related but I felt I had to share. The Duke of Edinburgh may not stick around for the whole of the queens reign, how rude of him to be older than her and possibly die before her. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just seen Lady Anne is doing a live tour and coming to Melbourne!

Spudlet · 15/02/2020 08:03

Itswinetime well how very dare he! I can’t believe they used the words ‘stick around’, like he might just decide to drop dead because he can’t be bothered any more Confused

CanIHaveATiaraPlease · 15/02/2020 08:06

That article is Shock itswinetime

StCharlotte · 15/02/2020 08:13

Argh Kate's "kiddies"!

QueenOfTheAndals · 15/02/2020 08:32

Kate's done a podcast about 5 Questions, presumably the k word will be mentioned!
