I think the boots are fine.
They're probably very comfortable and look smart enough.

beanaseireann · 20/02/2020 19:33

I think Mathilde gets a blowdry with root lift - the "Nancy Regan root lift blowdry."

EmGee · 20/02/2020 20:58

In those photos, Mathilde looks like she's had work done on her face. Maybe it's just the photos. I don't think it looks good though. The outfit is a bit more va va boom than her normal look, and she suits it.

EmGee · 20/02/2020 20:59

I meant va va voom!

CanIHaveATiaraPlease · 20/02/2020 21:07

Camilla wears those boots a lot which to my mind means they must be very comfy. I’m a comfy over style girl so understand exactly where she’s coming from. My sister despairs of me. Grin

paradyning · 20/02/2020 22:09

I always think Mathilde looks a bit 'worked' on.

Something died on a Max's head Shock

As we are talking about Max some good looks here if you can be bothered to scroll through the adverts

Surely the comfy boots come in some other colours as well though?!

Laiste · 21/02/2020 09:57

Perhaps she's channeling the Queen? HM only ever wears black versions of her shoes doesn't she?

MotherofPearl · 21/02/2020 13:43

Yesterday at an awards ceremony at BP. Not kidding.Grin

Charlie looks spiffing!

AdaColeman · 21/02/2020 14:02

Camilla isn't going to take those boots off until May is out! Grin

Disfordarkchocolate · 21/02/2020 14:02

I think Princess Anne is disciplined and doesn't really do overindulgence. I don't think she has a personal trainer more lots of riding and walking. Can you imagine her with a tub of ice cream watching a sad movie?

QueenOfTheAndals · 21/02/2020 14:22

I can't imagine Anne with a personal trainer, that's for sure! I imagine it's just an active lifestyle with lots of riding, kicking out of stables and long walks with the dorgies.

It is 'the thing' to only do up 1 button in a suit a la Charlie boy?
I think it looks a bit dishevelled

AdaColeman · 21/02/2020 16:57

When wearing a single breasted jacket, it’s normal to leave the bottom button open, and the jacket is usually cut to allow for this. Legend has it that King Edward VII became too rotund to fasten all his jacket buttons, so left the bottom button open, and everyone followed his lead.
Charlie is a bit of a button maverick though, and often fastens ALL his buttons!

pastaparadise · 21/02/2020 17:23

PC and Camilla look like zombies in the last pic! Surely it's usual to smile at an awards ceremony?

MotherofPearl · 21/02/2020 17:31

I know what you mean @pastaparadise but I assumed that they were caught on camera during a rendition of the national anthem.

beanaseireann · 21/02/2020 17:32

"The Glums 2"
People of a certain age will remember "The Glums 1"
Smile

CanIHaveATiaraPlease · 21/02/2020 18:14

The way they are standing leads to think it’s during the national anthem as well.

paradyning · 21/02/2020 18:14

Ahh thanks Ada

AngelaScandal · 21/02/2020 18:27

“Am I still not King?”
“No love”

hopeishere · 21/02/2020 18:41

Prince Charles has a very florid complexion

Legend has it that King Edward VII became too rotund to fasten all his jacket buttons, so left the bottom button open, and everyone followed his lead.
Interesting @AdaColeman

Prince Charles has rosacea @hopeishere
