Those are really lovely photos, and as always Kate's hair is looking enviable.

I agree about the ice blue! I wish she would read our threads and try to remember our expert advice to stick to warm plum and berry shades! Grin

I'm also just generally not keen on that style of dress. Far to frilly and flouncy for my taste.

MotherofPearl · 29/04/2021 11:50

too not to Blush

I like Kate's dress. Is her version slightly darker in colour than the one on the Ghost website? May just be my eyes.

Also like Meghan's jeans and jacket thing but shoes are a bit weird. She looks like she must be due any minute now.

Apparently this dress was worn at a private engagement when they were in Pakistan. I quite like it.

Love the anniversary pics! 😃

StartupRepair · 29/04/2021 12:09

Love the anniversary photos. Also charmed by the scandi zoom photos.

LarsErickssong · 29/04/2021 12:14

Lovely pictures and I really like the dress.

RomainingCalm · 29/04/2021 12:59

I take it back. I liked the dress until I saw the full-length version. It looks as if someone added a curtain to the bottom.

bananaboats · 29/04/2021 13:15

Don't like the style of the dress at all but think they are lovely photos.

MotherofPearl · 29/04/2021 15:31

I agree about the evening wedding dress @RomainingCalm. I love the glittery cinched-in belt and the flow of the skirt.

The evening wedding dress was very glamorous but the bra cups were a bit odd. I liked the fuzzy sweater too.

LadyEloise · 29/04/2021 15:37

I wonder was the instigator of these threads QueenoftheAndals able to get married as planned or did Covid mess up her plans ?
Hope she did and had a lovely day.

MotherofPearl · 29/04/2021 15:52

Yes I see what you mean about the bra cups Deftly.

I've wondered the same Eloise. Sometimes I wonder if she's back amongst us, but has NC! I hope she managed to have a lovely wedding as you say.

Maireas · 29/04/2021 17:14

I don't like the cups in the evening wedding dress either. In fact I think that the visible cups spoiled the main wedding dress for me as well. The skirt was beautiful, as was the lace, but the cups didn't look good.

At the time I did wonder if the evening dress was just the day dress with the lace overlay removed and a belt added but on closer inspection realised they were different.

Thanks, QueenPaw, that's such a nice video. A lovely, happy film. I'm glad that William has found happiness and stability with Kate and the children. I don't like the Ghost dress,though!

Thank you QueenPaw for that link to Instagram.

randomer · 29/04/2021 20:07

In a minority, I'm not keen on the anniversary photos, the grinning thing. I like Kate out and about in her trusty boots.

LadyEloise · 29/04/2021 20:53

randomer I agree re the anniversary photos. They aren't looking at each other cheesy I know.
They're ( the photos ) are a bit "off".

The video with the children was lovely though.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 29/04/2021 21:02

That is a lovely video so thanks for posting it.
Only thing is the music made it seem like an advert for life insurance or toothpaste.

paradyning · 29/04/2021 22:27

Oh I find it all a bit twee and grinning too. Not much clothes to look at in the vid for me by outdoorsy stuff doesn't rock my boat.

Or a Centre Parcs ad!
AppleKatie · 30/04/2021 06:41

I know the video was cheesy but the it was heartwarming and they all looked amazing- we all need cheering up at the moment so I’m happy!

I like the ghost dress- but I agree it looks better sitting down than it does standing.

AndAllOurYesterdays · 30/04/2021 06:47

The music on the video was a really odd choice. Like when Google photos creates a montage of a day out for you without asking.
