Will we see any royals out and about anytime soon?

Woah Max!

paradyning · 18/04/2020 08:13

Wow! Not sure what to say

banivani · 18/04/2020 08:29

Oh i love that. Where is the coat from?

Freeshavocado · 18/04/2020 08:31

I love the coat and trousers but not sure about the addition of green for the shoes/bag/blouse, then again I'm not sure what I would've gone for instead.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/04/2020 08:39

@banivani the coat is ODLR. I quite like green blouse, more photos at NMR.

I like the blouse by itself just not sure about it with the coat and trousers

banivani · 18/04/2020 08:45

Found it myself by dredging the Dutch part of the internet - Oscar de la Renta. 😁

banivani · 18/04/2020 08:46

Ah x-post ... thanks for the link Queen!

LadyEloise · 18/04/2020 09:20

The cost looked nicer with the green boots and scarf.

CanIHaveAPenguinPlease · 18/04/2020 09:33

I love the blouse. The coat not sure about. But if anyone can carry it off it’s Max.

I’d love a night out with her & Camilla. But I’d make sure I was wearing my tena pads Grin

Can we just agree that Maxima can pull off anything, no matter how outlandish or ridiculous?

Apparently the U.K. royals didn’t get the memo. Not even Edward.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/04/2020 13:34

Yes that was a slightly odd omission. Usually Edward gets wheeled out for those sorts of things.

I think Maxima could wear a binbag and look fab. I wonder if in RL she look seven better ? The only thing I would change about her is to trim the ends of her hair as they always look whispy.

The best thing to have happened to her husband - he looks better the longer they are together

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/04/2020 13:36

Love how the wallpaper behind Wax and Max makes it look like she's wearing a palm tree as a hat. Because with her it's entirely possible!

Bit late, but i thought the same about Kate in the video with W. I found myself fascinated by her face while W was talking.

I wondered if 'slightly tearful' was an expression she was channeling to show concern on her face rather than just sort of glum. Or bored. Must be a nightmare knowing everyone will be looking closely. I know i just look like a right miserable cow when i'm not actually smiling! I think i'd have to channel some strange emotions to animate my face appropriately i think Grin

I was also wondering why there were no British royals in the montage. And from a cousins standpoint, the British RF is at least as closely related to Margrethe as is the Spanish one (I think). And more closely related than the Dutch one.

AdaColeman · 18/04/2020 15:21

Now we have left the EU they have crossed Liz off the Birthday Cake & Part Bag list!! Grin Grin

hopeishere · 18/04/2020 15:28

Just placemarking! Think Kate and Williams video calls have been great.

CanIHaveAPenguinPlease · 18/04/2020 15:54

Bit odd The RF didn’t participate but I would hope HM sent birthday wishes privately.

frugalkitty · 18/04/2020 16:26

No British royals in the montage???? Brexit, innit Grin

SenecaFallsRedux · 18/04/2020 16:58

I loved hearing the different languages being spoken in the video. And realizing that Margrethe is fluent in all of them. What a woman. I think she might be my no.1 favorite, although it's a close tie with Max. Or maybe Anne.

paradyning · 19/04/2020 11:23

I love that Meghan is wearing MN stalwarts Stan Smiths! They are not my cup of tea but everyone seems to love them on here as they get touted daily on S&B. (If you've not seen the pics they're in DM)

justasking111 · 19/04/2020 13:28

Meghan and Harry are doing a bit of pavement pounding which is commendable, they are in the low risk age group apparently, wearing masks etc. so should be ok. However, LA figures are worrying. I would have hunkered down in Canada with Archie being so young.
