Royal Style - more tiaras please for 2021 (maybe no more crocs)

[Maireas]

Hello - let's hope we get a bit more glamour this year and fingers crossed for some tiara watching....

Not S&B but Kate has gone to the Sarah Everard memorial this evening. Good for her 🙏👏

Well done, Kate.

Yes, that's such a good thing to do. She says she remembers walking round London on her own. Cases like this strike a chord with all women, don't they?

Pleased to see this. Good for Kate.

I really do admire her. She's so dignified and strikes the right tone of support without over politicising a situation.

Cases like this strike a chord with all women, don't they?

Absolutely

That's excellent of Kate.
And I'm pleased BoJo & Carrie said they will light a candle for Sarah Everard.
Remember it's 9.30pm to light a candle.

I didn't know that, thanks @TracyBeakerSoYeah

Thank you for the heads up; I've passed the message around my family and friends.

Glad I was of service!
I've lit my candle.
Anyone else having problems getting on here? The site is playing silly buggers & it's taken me at least 10 mins to get on.

Yes, I think there are problems with the site again.

Great we're back!

I lit my candle too.

In this day & age it's sad that we can't walk the streets in safety.
I'm sure the Pankhursts et al would be turning in their graves.

Now going back to Royal things I did a bit of Googling re royals & Suffragettes & discovered the very interesting life of the Indian Princess & GodDaughter of Queen Victoria, Sophia Duleep Singh

That's interesting, @TracyBeakerSoYeah.
I'd read about Ranjit Singh and The East India Company, but not about Sophia.
On another note, on the KP instagram there are sweet Mother's Day cards from the Cambridge children to Granny Diana, with a lovely message about missing mums, and bereavement. Very touching.

I've just seen the children's cards on Insta. "Papa is missing you" brought a tear to my eye.

I've seen them too, aren't they lovely. Without getting too political, I think it's their way of saying in a sweet non-confrontational way that what happened to Diana happened to William too, not just Harry.
Back to the clothes, I loved Kate's country look when she paid her respects the other day. I wish I could look that stylish when she's clearly just whacked a wax jacket on over jeans and boots. Everything to do with being slim and tall and having swishy hair I think.

They are lovely

Thank you Maireas

Thank you for posting the Instagram link, Tracy!

The children have baked a a cake as well.

Eau I wasn't keen on Kate's jacket the other day, I thought she was channelling an inner Jeremy Corbin

She looked a darn sight better than either Jeremy or me for that matter would have, haha!

I liked Kate's low key look for visiting the memorial. Though as Eau says, she can get away with it because she has a lovely figure and beautiful hair!

I thought we might all appreciate these photos of the utterly adorable Prince Charles! He really is smooshable!

What a gorgeous baby! They look so happy. He was a much longed for child.

For mothers day, Princess Eugenie has posted a picture of baby August and one of her and her mum, who is wearing some very strong shoulderpads!
