Will we see any royals out and about anytime soon?

Her tan is at 2011 Kate levels!

Blimey that’s more than tennis with the kids she’s got so bored she’s tangoed herself 6 too many times.

Kate looks lovely. I suspect she's been spending most of the day outdoors with the children and probably enjoying the time they have a family.

QueenOfTheAndals · 16/05/2020 14:21

Kate's yellow dress from last week is on sale. I think I'd prefer it as a top. As a dress it's a bit sister-wife.

It might be on sale, but only UK Size 4.

Size 4!!! Shock Is that even a proper size? I doubt my arm would fit into the body of a Size 4 Blush

I have a 16 year old who wears UK size 4.

thisenglishlife · 16/05/2020 18:15

I'm a size 4 😳 (and a 2 or 0 in coats)

FATEdestiny · 16/05/2020 18:20

Blimey, strikes me as tiny. To give me some context of the smaller sizes, what size would you say DoC is? I'd put her at a Size 8, but maybe that's just a poor estimate.

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 16/05/2020 18:24

Yes, I've got a 14 year old who wears a size 4 - (American size 0 a term I first came across in Dallas many moons ago). It always horrifies me that lots of the US stars are that size. DD is tall with very long legs but super slim. I cannot imagine very many full developed adults naturally being that size.

thisenglishlife · 16/05/2020 18:29

Apparently Kate might be a size 4 too:

I think size 4 averages to 31-24-33, I'm 32DD-24-33.5

NewModelArmyMayhem18 · 16/05/2020 18:35

I suspect that's thinner than Diana ever was even at her thinnest.

thisenglishlife · 16/05/2020 18:39

I'd buy Kate as being around 31/32-24-33

A UK size 4 or 6, rather than 8?

The latest Zoom features a Sandro cardigan (this green dress is by Sandro too).

There’s no way she’s an 8. I would guess size 4 too. She is clearly strong but extremely slight.

Today is Maxima's birthday and she's shared a favourite recipe!

Happy birthday Maxima! How glam does she look holding the alfajores?

I absolutely love all those huge diamonds in the second shot. Amazing.

AppleKatie · 17/05/2020 18:47

How does Max manage to look hugely glamourous and hugely relatable at the same time? Great pictures.

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/05/2020 19:32

Well OF COURSE Max is a Eurovision fan!

Oh gosh those diamonds. My oh my. Serious envy.

paradyning · 17/05/2020 20:34

Princess Alexia looks amazing in the self portrait dress. She'll be the Princess Madeleine of her generation in glam terms I think.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/05/2020 12:16

Imagine the fun to be had if Maxima is your mum and you can play dress-up with her wardrobe??

OP posts:
BlingLoving · 18/05/2020 14:11

Th thing about Max is you can totally see her allowing it too? Love Kate though I do, I suspect she'd be terrified of being found out or losing/breaking something so dress up will be limited to her personal clothes/jewellery. While you can totally see max taking DDs into the royal vault for an afternoon of fun!

Gooseysgirl · 18/05/2020 14:20

Kate on the Heads Up minute for mental health this morning. The dress is Beulah.
