@KillingMeDeftly

They were at a Church of Scotland event (I think) so if there's ever a time when a coat dress is suitable, it's then!
It was the General Assembly so I would agree that a coat dress was very appropriate. I know I'm obviously out of step with nearly everyone on here but I thought the colour was beautiful and Kate looked lovely. I agree though that she could have had something at the neck but only because it could have been a bit chilly in Edinburgh and in the Assembly building.

The Spanish royals were out for Princess Leonor's confirmation. No one does business chic like Letizia. No Ex-Queen Sofia, the perennial third wheel, this time Grin

Ah Deftly that's a bit mean re Queen Sofia. She's not had it easy - her philandering husband and the scandal with her son in law and her daughter being implicated. It must take its toll. Her ds and dgc may be happy to have her there.
I do recall though there being an incident at one point with L and S. I can't remember the details.

Maireas · 29/05/2021 12:03

The Spanish princesses always look nice, very appropriately dressed, but not over formal. They're going to be tall like dad! It's unusual to see Leti in flat shoes, but it's a win from me!

The Spanish royals look great, very stylish. Leti's trousers look chic on her because she's so slim, but I suspect they'd look like stuffed sausage meat on most other people. I'd make them look like old fashioned jodhpurs by filling out the thigh bits naturally...
I agree about the sky high stilettos-I wonder lockdown made people reassess their comfort. I've finally embraced trainers and can't wear heels due to arthritis.

Maireas · 29/05/2021 13:17

I just think those sky high spindly heels have been around for a long time and are looking a bit dated. You're probably right, @Eaumyword about lockdown and comfort, though.

Kate's had her jab and funnily enough the ribbed top and high waisted stonewash jeans (could they be mom jeans and not skinnies??) are probably the trendiest things I've ever seen on her!

Gorgeous!

Eaumyword · 29/05/2021 14:34

Well!Shock
That is the best I've ever seen Kate look! Bloody gorgeous!

Horsemad · 29/05/2021 15:47

Wow, she looks amazing, she definitely suits the casual look.

stillavid · 29/05/2021 16:36

Agree Kate looks amazing here! I guess her 'work' clothes are just her uniform.

Wish my tummy looked like that when sat down Wink

AppleKatie · 29/05/2021 16:54

Gosh Kate looks fabulous getting jabbed!

RomainingCalm · 29/05/2021 18:20

When I saw the picture of Kate my first thought was the jeans. I can't remember who said earlier this week that she should get some faded Levi's.

She looks absolutely fabulous in that picture.

Lampzade · 29/05/2021 18:55

She look much better in casual wear

It was me! proud Grin

Everything I’ve read about queen Sofia ( admittedly not much) says she’s a warm and hard working royal. Yes, the time she’s had lately makes the queen Annus Horribilis look like a picnic.
Nice pics of the Spanish royal family. I think the Spanish as a whole do stylish well. They often tend to have good posture too.

SummerWhy · 29/05/2021 20:29

I stopped following royal style closely but had to comment on Kate’s vaccine outfit! She looks so good. Apparently her jeans are these from And Other Stories www.stories.com/en_gbp/clothing/jeans/straight/product.favourite-cut-cropped-blue.0898522009.html and the top is a H&M one she was first seen wearing in 2016.

KillingMeDeftly · 29/05/2021 21:34

I was only joking re Sofia. I used to be on these threads a long time ago under a different name and remembered we played royal AIBU shortly after the Letizia/Sofia incident and one of them was "to wonder why my husband brings his mother everywhere with us."

whataboutbob · 29/05/2021 22:38

@KillingMeDeftly 😆- because he’s a good Spanish boy?

StartupRepair · 29/05/2021 23:22

Kate looks great.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 29/05/2021 23:28

In frock & jean

@StartupRepair sounds we could be writing a haiku/Limerick/poem mash up Grin

StartupRepair · 29/05/2021 23:40

She's a stylish future Queen.

MotherofPearl · 30/05/2021 08:08

I think Kate looked really good yesterday, but I'm afraid mom jeans are hideous imo! My DD (13) loves them but I don't think they do anyone any favours. Kate can get away with most things because she is so slim, but on most people I don't think mom jeans are at all flattering.

paradyning · 30/05/2021 08:21

Wonder if she had her vejas on her feet!
