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

I love the way the Queen is looking at baby Charlotte too. The photo captures a lovely moment between them.

Love the new photos; thanks for posting. I think the one with PP and HMQ with their great grandchildren is especially lovely. The shades of pink work really well aesthetically.

Princess Anne visited the Royal Victoria Yacht Club at Cowes yesterday.

Although she's casually dressed here, she looks quite glam with the red lipstick and sunglasses! And she barely has any greys. She is a real stoic, like HMQ.

Great photo of Anne, quite glamorous and steely at the same time! She looks somehow without vanity despite the hairdo and lipstick.
I can absolutely imagine how she gave that guy who tried to kidnap her what for...

Angela Kelly's book, The Other Side of the Coin - The Queen, The Dresser and The Wardrobe, is a Kindle Daily Deal today. It gets mixed reviews, one says "Only read if you you are interested in fashion"!

But at only 99 pence it's probably worth the risk!

I'm not keen on that Balmoral photo, it looks as though it's been taken by the window cleaner when he was passing, all of them in an unconnected row with tall Wills stuck on the end.

Nice photos of Anne, good classic casual look. I thought it was a good choice of a first appearance for her, as Philip had links with the Club for many years, so she would be sure of a kind, warm & sympathetic reception.

Thanks Ada. I've read the Angela Kelly book and did enjoy it.

I wanted to post this picture of Max as I rather like the unusual way she's accessorised with red. While I don't love that dress, the whole look works.

Have always admired but never quite understood Anne's hair.

Eaumyword · 15/04/2021 22:43

I suspect Anne just tells her hairdresser to make it neat!
That's a rare fashion fail for Max I think and I normally think she rocks any mad outfit and looks amazing. I agree the blue accented with red looks great (and her jewels are always fabulous) but I'm not keen on the see-through-ness.

Loving all of the family photos that have been released. The one with the great-grandchildren. Is particularly lovely.

The Balmoral one makes me smile as it looks like our family get-together photos when, just as everyone is leaving, someone suddenly remembers that we forgot to get any group photos. My mum will have her coat on, Dad will be holding the car keys, DH looks bemused, DC are staring in different directions and wondering if screen time might be back on, and it all looks a bit hurried.

Looking like Kate's gone all Camilla with full on pearls

Maireas · 17/04/2021 14:08

Hasn't she? Pearls and veiled hat. Very chic.
Great scenes at the castle with the military.
I'm going to start a new thread soon, and will rely on the wonderful @TracyBeakerSoYeah to link it! Last time I attempted the link, it didn't work at all....

Aren't pearls for mourning as they are the least blingy?

paradyning · 17/04/2021 14:36

Elgar! We had this at a family funeral recently. Such a beautiful piece

LadyEloise · 17/04/2021 15:04

Oh my ! Those heels on Kate and Sophie.
I'd have a ladder in those tights before I'd got out of the car.

ApplyWithin · 17/04/2021 15:22

Beatrice had vertiginous heels on too.

Maireas · 17/04/2021 15:28

Those heels, on marble and stone. I always get fearful.
