I didn't know that @thisenglishlife - thanks.

I think he looks pretty dapper!

Diana had mild rosacea and William and Harry used to be quite red.

I have rosacea & dc1 has it also. It’s awful when it flares up.

thisenglishlife · 21/02/2020 20:41

Sorry to hear that. It can be painful, can't it?

Rosie Green has some interesting advice on rosacea:

Thank you - I’ll look at the later

Has William ever looked more like Charles than in the second photo @thisenglishlife posted??

Meghan & Harry have had the use of the “Sussex Royal” name withdrawn, as it would flout Government rules. Not what they were hoping for I would guess.

Not sure the word royal matters. As long as they can continue to do their charity work and be happy that is what is important.

I think they would have been wise to have waited 24 hours before publishing that statement. I try to do that before sending angry emails Wink

CanIHaveATiaraPlease · 22/02/2020 08:16

The bbc are saying the loss of SussexRoyal will be a blow justasking

I hope they will be happy. Time will tell. I’ll miss Meghan’s outfits that’s for sure. She has such a sense of style imo.

Gooseysgirl · 22/02/2020 08:18

Jesus I can't believe Camilla wore the boots at BP award ceremony 🙄

Gooseysgirl · 22/02/2020 08:19

But I love the rest of the outfit - that shade of green is lovely on her!

Love some of the outfits here! Such a beautiful woman.

CanIHaveATiaraPlease · 22/02/2020 08:23

Oops pressed send to soon

I wish I had her looks & sense of style!

QueenOfTheAndals · 22/02/2020 09:08

I would wear pretty much everything she wore during her engagement! I think she struggled a bit with "duchess dressing" but her casual looks were always on point and her shoe collection was fabulous.

Good woman Camilla. Wear your ugly boots. Live your best life. I see it as a tiny act of rebellion on her part. Imagine being her age and having your life micromanaged to the nth degree

CanIHaveATiaraPlease · 22/02/2020 09:13

To be fair Queen she was pregnant for a lot of it so I’m not surprised she struggled with her outfits.

Quite an interesting BBC article comparing the press and public treatment of Wallis vs Meghan.

mrscampbellblackagain · 22/02/2020 09:17

I think Camilla's boots are fine. Quite hard this winter to find long boots that aren't black - I was looking for myself and all seemed to be black.

QueenOfTheAndals · 22/02/2020 09:20

That's an interesting piece, though of course Wallis was lucky that we didn't have 24/7 press coverage and social media back then! But at least Meghan and Harry seem to love each other - several biographers now believe Wallis never wanted to marry David and would've happily remained in the background but when he abdicated she felt she had no choice.

They seem to have been genuinely quieter for the last few weeks than they were during their ‘six weeks off’ so I hope they have had peace and an opportunity to regroup.

I’m sure in due course we’ll see more fashion though. They are never going to completely disappear from public view.

hopeishere · 22/02/2020 09:33

Well they have a few more official engagements so we will see some more fashion then!

QueenOfTheAndals · 22/02/2020 09:46

I'm guessing Meghan will wear a lot of black and several rewears for their last engagements. Though I kind of want her bring out the big guns and appear in head to toe Givenchy or ODLR. May as well give the DM something to write about and go out with a bang!

OP posts:
mrscampbellblackagain · 22/02/2020 09:56

I would be dreading those engagements if I was Meghan or kate or any of them to be fair. It will be so awkward.

frugalkitty · 22/02/2020 10:56

In tomorrow's DM. I like the rainbow effect here, might be an interesting article.
