Royal Style without our Queen ( of the Andals )

Sadly QueenoftheAndals has decided to bow out and not create any more Royal Style and Beauty threads SadSadSad
I'm really hoping she'll reconsider.
Are any of the regular posters interested in continuing her great work ?

Queen if you do drop by, I have had hours and hours of enjoyment. Thank you. Saved my sanity during long nights breastfeeding.

justasking111 · 31/05/2020 22:35

I did start a new thread, nobody noticed Sad

I hope Queen of the Andals has a lovely time away from social media and tiptoes back one day.

Lovely to see a picture of HM today. You can't see much of them but I rather like the red/maroon boots that she's wearing!

Let's try to keep them going, I love these threads! HM looks amazing on her horse today!

AngelaScandal · 31/05/2020 22:40

@justasking111 oh I’m sorry! I didn’t see it. I did check.

justasking111 · 31/05/2020 22:45

thats ok bosco. As long as we still have one, that is the important thing.

AngelaScandal · 31/05/2020 22:47

Bringing over @justasking111’s links from earlier... these times it is difficult to find much to talk about but they will be back. In the meantime William and Kate are to sue Tatler, which is unusual for them. I am not sure if it is a good or bad idea to be honest. They did do a bit of a hatchet job but nothing you cannot see in the press time and time again. I guess we shall have to wait and see.

Apologies, I didn't see your thread and I did look hoping someone had started a new one.

Another long term lurker here. A big thanks to Queen for all these threads, they've kept me such good company during maternity leave and the lockdown and she did a great job moderating them. And thanks to LadyEloise and justasking111 for continuing them, I was really hoping we would keep going despite the lack of royal fashion at the moment.

Gooseysgirl · 01/06/2020 04:31

Very sorry to see Queen leave us SadHere's hoping she returns at some point!

StartupRepair · 01/06/2020 05:32

Thanks Lady E (and justasking) for picking up the mantle. I am also grateful for Queen for the whole thread series.
Love seeing HMQ and her pony.

Reporting for duty Smile

Thank you @LadyEloise Star

Sad to see Queen go, but hoping she's happy.

Rhubarbisevil · 01/06/2020 08:36

I do wish HMQ would wear a riding hat.

banivani · 01/06/2020 08:51

Oh I missed the end of the last thread so didn't see that Queen was leaving us. :( I'll miss Queen's contributions and join in the thank yous to her for starting the threads. Hope you fnid a good balance Queen! And good luck with the wedding when it can all finally happen!

I was thinking the same, Rhubarbisevil, but when I looked closely at her scarf it looks really high so I'm wondering if her headscarf is attached to a riding hat.
A headscarf with integrated riding hat might secretly be all the rage with the riding fraternity. 😁

BlingLoving · 01/06/2020 10:13

@LadyEloise Thanks for starting a thread. I did toy with doing so but have been mostly offline for the last few days. Well done to you and @justasking111 for getting a jump on. I agree, let's' try keep these threads going.

Have been amusing myself by wondering what royals are wearing on their lower halves during Skype calls! Kate is always fully decked out in dresses so no fun there. I figure Harry is wearing cargo shorts. William: bearing in mind this is a man who wears FLEECES to official engagements? I figure he's just wearing his underpants under there. Charles obviously is fully dressed at all times, including shoes (like my dad!).

Meghan hasn't done one for a while but I'm thinking skinnies or cut off demin shorts. Sophie in cycling shorts before/after going for a ride!

Queen looks good on the horse Lovely to see her out and about as it were. I think I heard something about Prince Philip has been around too, within confines of windsor castle.

Thoughts on Crown Prince Fred at 52?

A very handsome man, but I prefer him without the beard. I often think he looks kind. (Nothing against beards in general. My elder son has one and he really suits it.)

frugalkitty · 01/06/2020 13:19

Fred is ageing quite well, as men often seem to. I'm not a beard fan, hated them even as a little girl. My DH is a yeti hairy chap and tried a beard last year. It looked ok on him but he shaved it off because he said I recoiled if he got too close Grin

thisenglishlife · 01/06/2020 14:18

(Taking a break from my own work Zoom calls!), here are all of Kate's Zoom looks, which is your favourite?

Left to right
1st row - Tabitha Webb chevron jumper, Boden blue print dress, Altuzarra blue print dress, Sezanne white cardigan*
2nd row - Raey yellow print dress, LK Bennett Plain red dress, Beulah red print dress*, LK Bennett red print dress
3rd row - Zara yellow jumper, Joostricot white and black stripe jumper

*I previously said that Kate had done 8 Zoom calls, but she has done 10 (these two were the ones I forgot about).
