Previous thread

What will tomorrow bring for Kate? Does her love for green know no end?

And Thursday night sees the return of Meghan! I know she can be polarising so let's stick to just discussing her clothes rather than the intricacies of Megxit. There's plenty of other threads to do that!

There don't seem to be many pictures of the guests at the evening do. I have only seen the excellent Sinead Burke.

Im amazed that they're going to Prosperous. Can somebody tell me what is there. It is a tiny one horse town 🤔

DevonUkelele · 03/03/2020 21:52

Haha thisenglishlife - those pics of Kate with an enormous Guinness are awesome 😁😁.

I also agree re with posters on the previous thread her earrings at tonight's do - lovely. They are one element I think she consistently gets right. More bling please, your royal highness!

Cannot wait for the return of the Sussexes 🤗.

I googled Prosperous and can’t see anything remarkable.

Was it a very last minute trip? The mainstream Irish media have barely reported in it other than publish a list of road closures. Tbh I don’t think many Irish people care about them one way or another and Kate’s choice of green outfits are bordering on ridiculous.

Thanks for the new thread Queen

RomaineCalm · 03/03/2020 21:59

My money's on a Guinness-themed outfit tomorrow...

Haha @RomaineCalm! 😆

TheYearOfTheDog · 03/03/2020 22:03

I love them but Id be too scared to tell anybody 😳

TheYearOfTheDog · 03/03/2020 22:04

Embarrassed rather

TheYearOfTheDog · 03/03/2020 22:04

@RomaineCalm wow that would be amazing!

TheTiaraManager · 03/03/2020 22:04

I'm not keen on Kate's outfit. She suits green but it's a hideous dress & she already has so many green coats!

I have never seen that Harlequin dress worn by HMQ before, it definitely looks like something a jockey should wear!

StCharlotte · 03/03/2020 22:23

Daytime Kate baaaaad!

Liking the new hair though and the gentler waves. And I like tonight's dress.

MotherofPearl · 03/03/2020 22:23

Place marking with a couple of photos of Leti wearing a pretty odd blouse from Zara. I really dislike the cut and drape of the sleeves - makes her arms and shoulders look all wrong. But she looks great apart from that.

Thanks for the new thread Queen. Grin

Maybe HM was playing tribute to a jockey?

It’s been a terrible day in the Apple house but checking in here and scrolling though the last few pages of the last thread has cheered me up no end. Sterling work and great pics everyone. 👑 👑 👸 🇮🇪 👑 👑

I'm really not keen on Kate's dress tonight, I don't like the fabric or the style, plus there's some Avengers bra thing going on with it which looks most peculiar if you ask me which you didn't Grin

Hope tomorrow is a better day for you AppleKatie Flowers

Excuse me, but my great grandparents lived in Prosperous and are buried nearby. (I have only been there to see the grave, and was bitten by a horse fly).

justasking111 · 03/03/2020 22:32

Avengers bra Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 03/03/2020 22:35

Blimey, she could put someone's eye out with those!

Those flounces on hems, always remind me of grannies loose covers on her sofas. They were big with Laura Ashley many moons ago as well.

paradyning · 03/03/2020 22:43

Can't unsee that now!

mistermagpie · 03/03/2020 22:47

Oh I hate tonight's dress as well! I remember Sali Hughes in that and just thought it looked really scratchy. I always think those vampire wife dresses look really frumpy for the ridiculous price of them, but I suspect I'm not their target market.

I like her hair though and she's always so engaged and up for anything at these events, I think she's great.

She can't accessorise though, that bag doesn't go at all and I don't think the earrings do either.

Wheelerdeeler · 03/03/2020 22:53

Where are they staying?

QueenOfTheAndals · 03/03/2020 22:53

Maybe she's wearing Tom Ford's acrylic chrome bra underneath?
