@CliffsofMohair

Wonder what they make of NI politics this week.
I'm sure they couldn't care less 😫

Camilla has that Princess Anne vibe of settlling on one hairstyle for life. Good plan.

LarsErickssong · 19/05/2021 10:12

Lovely news just announced Princess Beatrice and Edo are expecting a baby in autumn 👶🏻

paradyning · 19/05/2021 11:54

Her slightly unflattering coat now makes perfect sense!

frugalkitty · 19/05/2021 12:54

Lovely news for Beatrice!

Horsemad · 19/05/2021 13:05

All these babies! ❤️🙂

Maireas · 19/05/2021 13:29

Would that be great grandbaby 12 after Archie's sister? Good news and happy for HM.

That's lovely to hear about Beatrice's baby.

I had to dash on to post these photos of Leti's latest outfit. Shock She's certainly one of the few people with the figure to pull this off, but even then I'm afraid I'm not a fan. At all. Those ruffles!

Lovely news for Beatrice & Edo.

I quite like Leti's outfit even though she does look a bit like an angel in disguise.

FawnDrench · 19/05/2021 17:47

Let's top half looks like a fan-shaped ice cream wafer - but goodness me, she can still wear it!

DigOutThoseLemonHandWipes · 19/05/2021 18:02

I think it's lovely for MHQ that there will be lots of new babies this year. While they can't possibly fill the hole left by thehe DofE they do at least give her something to look forward to.

Maireas · 19/05/2021 18:06

A touch of the dilophosaurus about Leti's top, but I rather like it. I've got into the mad frills and sleeves at the moment. It may be a phase.

Two normally stylish royals had bad days today - Leti creating a bit too much of an inverted triangle shape for my taste, and Kate demonstrating that a dropped waist isn’t the most flattering choice on someone with a long waist (no shade on her figure, I have the same shape myself).

KillingMeDeftly · 19/05/2021 18:34

Lovely news for Beatrice but OMG announcing it on H&M's wedding anniversary?? GrinWink

CliffsofMohair · 19/05/2021 18:40

Love the shade there Bea 😂😂

Agree. That waist does nothing for Kate at all
KillingMeDeftly · 19/05/2021 18:56

Kate's dress is a no from me. It looks like something Diana might've worn back in the 80s.

PurpleRainDancer · 19/05/2021 18:59

Absolutely agree about Kate’s dress today. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her look any less than amazing in her outfits, but today’s was completely unflattering. Really emphasised how very slim she is, made her look like Flat Stanley.

Maireas · 19/05/2021 19:01

Yes, that's not a great shape on her. The fit isn't great, either. It's nice to see her in red tones though.

MotherofPearl · 19/05/2021 19:02

Totally agree @Serenster. I'm the same shape too (though sadly not the same size!) and I absolutely never wear dropped waists. They elongate the already long body and make the proportions all wrong.

KillingMeDeftly · 19/05/2021 19:05

She has some lovely dresses by Alessandra Rich but this isn't one of them. But I suppose the style is something new for her so good on her for trying something different!

SenecaFallsRedux · 19/05/2021 19:41

Re Kate's dress. Have I missed something by paying less attention to fashion during the pandemic? is 80s fashion making a comeback? Dropped waist on mid-calf dresses? Puffed sleeves? Mom jeans?

Please say no.

Serenster · 19/05/2021 19:54

Mom jeans are well and truly back I’m afraid, Seneca! And 80s style is definitely back in (I’ll be swerving it as a child of the 80s myself Grin ).

HeyGirlHeyBoy · 19/05/2021 20:08

I had a dress just like that for my 8th birthday party. I loved it Grin
