I hadn't noticed Kate's earrings and love them. It's making me want some pretend ones of my own now!
I love a sense of humour with a mask and love the poppy one.
It would be amazing to see a royal lady with a Santa one with a grey beard Grin I fancy one myself or could just leave my lockdown chin hairs to grow

Very moving memories of Diana from Rosa Monckton on Women's Hour this morning. She must have been such a lovely person to have as a friend.

JaJaDingDong · 11/11/2020 20:20

Is the speculation that she's pregnant?

Yes. For requesting a postponement to the trial "for personal reasons".

Thank you for the lovely bridal collages, Frugalkitty. 😍 I've missed the collages that Thisenglishlife used to post for us.
I'm not keen on Kate's shiny white blouse. I normally like her choices so this is a rare miss for me.

Wondering what Americans make of the Harry and Megs pics @SenecaFallsRedux and @mathanxiety??

LadyEloise · 12/11/2020 12:01

Good question MadameMiggleldy.

SenecaFallsRedux · 12/11/2020 12:05

MadameMiggeldy I can't speak for all Americans, but my guess is that for most who have seen the pictures, they, like me, are fine with them. But truth be told, we have somewhat bigger news stories these days to occupy our concerns. Smile

MadameMiggeldy · 12/11/2020 12:50

@SenecaFallsRedux Really? Do tell ! 😂

SugarAndSpice33 · 12/11/2020 13:03

I guess every color she wears goes with her image absolutely perfect - no doubt red compliments her alot.

MotherofPearl · 12/11/2020 19:56

In my NMR royal fashion roundup this evening we have CPM in glasses which I don't think I've seen her in before. Also, has she cut her hair? I like the dark green suit.

Then Leti looking amazing in a red leather Hugo Boss skirt. Nothing will beat Meghan in that dark green leather skirt though.

For a split second I thought that was Kamala Harris

I'm so excited for the next season of The Crown, and enjoyed this article giving some insight into the clothes made for the show:

Is that CPM? I honestly didn't recognise her.

Ah Maireas, is it Mary or Marie ???

MotherofPearl · 13/11/2020 17:40

According to NMR it's definitely CPM!

So excited to binge watch on Sunday, definitely one thing lockdown is good for!
Maireas · 13/11/2020 19:37

Thanks for the article, MotherofPearl. Lots of great costume detail! I remember that blue dress well. I think they may have got it wrong with Margaret Thatcher, though and the couture outfits. She famously wore off the peg from M&S and Aquascutum.

I saw the ad for the new season of the crown on Netflix and having never watched it, I started from the beginning today!

Not much fashion on display but this is a great video anyway-

frugal you are in for a treat.

I saw Emma Corrin on Graham Norton the other night & after seeing a few clips of her in The Crown, she is Diana.
I like how the Crown actors have actually become the people they are playing so you actually forget it's Helena H-B playing Margaret as she is Margaret.
It's the little things that do it a certain look or movement or the tone used in speech.
It did take me until the last 2 episodes to get Olivia Colman as HMQ, whereas Claire Foy became HMQ by the end of the 1st episode.

Max on a trip to a care home yesterday, wearing yellow and blue. I love her butterfly pins. www.instagram.com/p/CHjFjOQHcuV/?igshid=1bhjvps72c41q

I really like the boat neck of her top, and the length and width of her trousers too. She rarely seems overwhelmed by fabric, but I wonder if someone with less presence would find all that material too much (esp. in yellow!)

Maireas · 14/11/2020 09:41

Thanks for the pics, Maud! Max is brave with colour, which I like. A bit like HM in her bold colour choices. I like the top part with the cowl/slash neck.

That was a large batch of scones Sophie had to make.
