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 ?

I have just gone down a Jordanian Royals rabbit hole Smile
I'd love if there was an autobiography of King Hussein ( 4 wives !!!).

I like that outfit on Leti.
I’m not sure about the shoes though. I don’t think I like all black wedges, they look a bit teenage to me somehow.

MotherofPearl · 09/07/2020 19:22

I like Leti's trousers but am less sold on the top and shoes.

Found you again, for some reason you dropped off my radar. Grin

Sophie’s hair great I agree
I do think she is such an asset to the Royal family ,she just quietly gets on with things.
I always imagine her and Kate to be good friends, obviously this may be way off mark !

RomaineCalm · 09/07/2020 23:52

I don't like Leti's shoes much - she has such tiny feet and ankles that they look enormous.

I liked this picture today of the Duchess of Gloucester- that fuchsia pink dress is lovely on her.

Kate did a Wimbledon related Zoom call.

She wore HVN's Maria style dress in the tennis players print. It's over £650 (as it's a silk dress).

You've got to love Kate, literal dressing even on a Zoom call Smile

thisenglishlife · 10/07/2020 20:20

It's a fun print, but the design slightly reminds me of those 1950s style diner waitress uniforms.

Or even thine late 1950s/early 1960s wallpaper you could get Grin
I do like the tennis print dress.

I love Kate's literal dressing and I love the green tennis dress! It's light-hearted and fun.

MotherofPearl · 10/07/2020 22:27

CPV got the green memo too! Grin

Lol at the Duchess of Gloucester speaking on a landline in front of the computer.

AppleKatie · 10/07/2020 22:52

Tennis for tennis Grin

It’s a nice dress but extortionately expensive and is that a literal dressing jumping the shark moment?

I mean what next?

thisenglishlife · 11/07/2020 10:49

So many possibilities...

Why does CPV always wear her hair scraped back ?
I think it would be nice to see it down more often, with perhaps a fringe.

MotherofPearl · 11/07/2020 19:20

I've often wondered that about CPV. The only answer I can think of is that it's a sort of work uniform for her, which means that when her hair is down she is less recognisable?

Here are two photos of her with her hair down and it looks so much better.

I suspect she just feels more comfortable with it up. Many women do. It’s easier and takes less time to style I imagine. Although yes it’s beautiful down too.

Lovely new picture of Beatrice www.instagram.com/p/CCg4DRYH_E1/?igshid=bmahnevsnhpt

That is lovely. Poor Beatrice and all the other brides with disrupted weddings.

thisenglishlife · 12/07/2020 12:19

Love those photos @MotherofPearl

MotherofPearl · 12/07/2020 21:30

Beatrice looks very glamorous there.

Charlene and family have been on a summer holiday. I love these two photos - not for the style or fashion, but because for once she looks genuinely happy and relaxed. Perhaps as a former professional swimmer she feels happiest in or near water.

I've also included one of Princess Anne on an engagement a couple of days ago. As we have commented on before, she has certainly kept her trim figure.
