Bet everyone thinks we're on the wine!
Well in my case they'd be right 😂

Settle down at the back!
How wise to wear trainers if you're a bit unsteady/have foot pain/can't be arsed.
That's a steep hill to and from St George's Chapel, plus it's cobbled. I sometimes fear for them on those vertiginous heels.

Lol @TracyBeakerSoYeah and @TSSDNCOP I saw the time you posted and thought, these two are partying!! 😆

Was that dress Erdem?

Maireas · 17/07/2021 07:39

Yes, it's Erdem, Horsemad. I think it suits Katherine better than Catherine!

@Horsemad "Is that dress Erdem ?"

Probably. It's not very nice. Smile

Eaumyword · 17/07/2021 09:16

Love that she wore trainers and styled it out with pearls!
Erdem patterns remind me of those 90's pictures where you had relax your eyes and see the hidden image amongst the pattern. I reckon there's a dolphin lurking in those folds...

I wonder who that is with the duchess at H&M's wedding? It's certainly not the Duke!

TSSDNCOP · 17/07/2021 10:07

Yes! Wine had been taken. Blissful night to sit out and sky watch with MN for company.

TSSDNCOP · 17/07/2021 10:08

Erdem looks miles better with trainers though.

I reckon that chap is a palace Page.

gingercat02 · 17/07/2021 10:14

Do we think Kate lent the DoK her dress for the wedding. Love the idea of a royal preloved warehouse

RickiTarr · 17/07/2021 10:23

At least her second son would wed a European Baroness!).

Can you k it machine if she had still been around for that debacle!? Shock

KillingMeDeftly · 17/07/2021 10:36

Was a debacle @RickiTarr? It was before my time so I can't remember! I know HMQ is alleged to have said of PMoK "she's too grand for the likes of us"!!

RickiTarr · 17/07/2021 10:44

I understand it was a bit of a kerfuffle at the time, yes.

Maireas · 17/07/2021 11:01

"Our Val" is the alleged nickname Lilibet uses for Marie Christine, short for Valkyrie Grin.
Apparently quite a grand person!
Marina may well have approved, apart from the Holy Roman aspect.

I did a quick Google and found a photo of their wedding. She was very striking and can certainly carry off serious jewels. Apparently she's about 6' tall too!

Is that dress Erdem?
Yes, though it reminds me of 1970s Laura Ashley curtain fabric.

There wasn't much of a royal family turn out for Marie Christine & Michael's wedding, though Anne did attend.

MotherofPearl · 19/07/2021 13:55

Quiet times here on RS&B.

I see Zara and Sophie were both at the British Grand Prix yesterday. Zara's dress really doesn't suit her imo. She's made the high neck mistake again and I really dislike that blowsy floral fabric.

Can't seem to find a closer photo of Sophie’s outfit. Dress is okay but I see another Crime Against Shoes has been committed with those white espadrilles (and I'm on Team Espadrille normally - just not in white).

Other than that they both look lovely. Grin

Sophie looks lovely, that's a great colour on her. I don't mind the espadrilles, but you know me, anyone ditching the stilletos gets my vote Wink !

Did Zara never watch Trinny and Susannah?? They always said high necks aren't flattering to the large of bosom!

KillingMeDeftly · 19/07/2021 16:49

Mike Tindall's let himself go a bit though...
