Will we see any royals out and about anytime soon?

There’s a similarity there but it’s mainly in make up and hair.

I think Lady Sarah Chatto is so consistently stylish and timeless in a low key way that if princess Charlotte ends up taking after her she'll be well set for life (superficially speaking).

I also think now that prince George is getting a bit bigger that there are Windsor bits starting to appear in his face.

The children will be more visible now because their parents are more visible, and will have had time to get comfortable with the idea of how and when to be visible as a family. And regardinh clothes I suspect it is s mix of "work" and "not work", and possibly personal preference on Charlotte's part, she must have opinions by now and I suspect isn't shy about stating them. That said, there were jeans in the clapping video and probably often is at home.

Is that Uncle Gary in the middle of that old photo, holding a top hat?

If so, then he and Louis have a remarkable likeness.
In fact whichever Middleton relative he is, Louis is very like him.

I suspect Charlotte's black patent mary jane shoes and grey tights with the (imo delightful) check dress were carefully chosen to look formal and slightly sombre. She was delivering food to people who were confined to their homes and perhaps W&K decided that a low key appearance was appropriate for the occasion.

Yes, at his first wedding to Miranda. I think Kate was 9 at the time.

Gary's current wife looks a bit like Carole. Also pictured is Kate's cousin, Tallulah Middleton (blonde hair).

Kate's latest online meeting - blue and white chevron jumper

I like that jumper. I'd look like a bag of washing in it but it's a perfect 'working from home' top. I do hope she's wearing her jammie bottoms though.

I'd say more than a bit! It's shades of CPM and SWFM!!

Funny how Kate's hairdo in that pic is almost exactly the same as Meghan's was in her call with the Smartworks intern.

Lovely jumper but a tad out of my price range. Also I reckon they do proper sizing so I’d need XXX large Blush

QueenOfTheAndals · 03/05/2020 08:51

I prefer this colour scheme (though I'd leave the scarf out) but alas it's sold out. Some lovely stuff on the site.

I have that jumper in cream and gold - it is very pretty!

Not keen on Kate or Meghan's hair in that style - it is a bit sister-wife Wink

But I get that everyone is struggling with no access to hairdressers

BlingLoving · 03/05/2020 10:59

Tabitha Webb again. They must be over the moon!!!!!

Thought of you lot yesterday when I came in from the weekly shop (god, it's awful isn't it) to find DD reclining on some cushions outside, playing a barbie dress up game and casually wearing a (snow white) tiara!

thisenglishlife · 03/05/2020 16:06

Kate has previously worn a blouse and dress by Tabitha Webb (anything else)?

The silk blouse (still available):

The silk dress was the Meg design and in the space print (shoes - Jimmy Choo Aimee and bag - black suede Mulberry Bayswater clutch).

The dress looks a bit LK Bennett but I like the chevron blouse. Not with black trousers though. I spotted another blouse I like on the site so will keep an eye out for their sales, which look decent.

I love that blouse but with jeans not black trousers.

BlingLoving · 03/05/2020 16:38

Yes, I think she's worn Tabitha Webb only a couple of times. But as far as I know, they're a relatively young organisation. I've been following them on Instagram for a while. So Kate wearing them 2 or 3 times must be huge for them.

AppleKatie · 03/05/2020 16:42

Yes, it’s an old fashioned ‘Sunday best’ thing isn’t it- school shoes and tights with that.

Pippa Middleton has designed at least two pieces for Tabitha Webb - this dress and scarf

Tabitha Webb has been around for a while in different guises I think - I'm fairly sure it was her that was the designer for the Project D line (Danni Minogue's line, which had some lovely evening dresses)

latedecember1963 · 03/05/2020 18:15

Ooh, I like that scarf! 😍

alliwantisagoodnightssleep · 03/05/2020 20:10

@QueenOfTheAndals re Kate’s hair on the video call. It was the same as when they did the video call when she wore the mustard jumper. I also have my hair the same today and I’m definitely not copying Meghan.

thisenglishlife · 03/05/2020 20:24

Just seen that Pippa is friends with Tabitha Webb, hence the fundraising collaboration
