@myrtleWilson

I know I missed the moment but one tweet I saw about the Time photo (the one with M in the white jumpsuit) was that it looked like Harry was her hairdresser explaining to Meghan what he was going to do to her layers Grin

As it’s the mayor of Bormes les Mimosas who officiated, it seems as though they only had the civil marriage, and they do tend to be very relaxed affairs, hence the casual style of the dress & hair etc.

It’s the religious wedding service (which the Middletons may or may not have later) which tends to be more formal and dressy in some parts of France.

The French focus is usually more on the food than the clothes!

@Horsemad really funny! Grin

We're nearing the end of the thread.
Suggestions for the next title?

I really like her dress (Alizee). They look so happy it's lovely to see.
The Harry and Meghan Time cover just looks so weird. I can't put my finger on it. Maybe as a Pp said it is to do with perspective? And Harry's spray on extra hair???

AdaColeman · 16/09/2021 21:48

The Time cover reminds me of a fantasy book cover, the soft focus faces but with staring eyes looking straight into the camera, the figures superimposed on a dreamlike forest background, the contrasting dark & white clothes, and all that strange hair!

HeyGirlHeyBoy · 16/09/2021 21:53

Yes the beam is like Kate for sure and yes, I thought the same x2 deftly. My hair looks similar.

Eaumyword · 16/09/2021 21:58

Can't believe we've nearly filled this thread!
Yes, it is stylish but odd - so much hair all over the place!
I can just imagine the photographer's direction. Ok, look dreamy but serious, influencer-ish and powerful. Harry, you just crouch a bit behind your wife. Don't worry about your bald patch, we'll draw it on later Grin

KillingMeDeftly · 16/09/2021 22:08

I think Harry has had some sort of hair transplant or has been on the Regaine but I don't think it looks that bad. It's not quite Elton John territory yet!

frugalkitty · 16/09/2021 22:19

I saw a comment that one of those photos looked like Harry was a hairdresser showing Meghan her new do in the mirror Grin

Hopefully the royal fashion will pick up a bit as we're heading into autumn, we could do with some evening gowns and jewels to list after.

KillingMeDeftly · 16/09/2021 22:25

Is there a diplomatic reception this year? And surely we're overdue a state visit? Maybe the Japanese emperor and Empress as they've not been yet. Or Joe Biden, as I don't think his last visit was a state one.

MotherofPearl · 16/09/2021 22:28

I really hope they'll have the diplomatic reception this year. 🤞

Serenster · 17/09/2021 08:22

There was definitely supposed to be a State visit from the new Japanese Emperor and Empress in 2020, KillingMeDeftly that obviously was postponed - fingers crossed that gets rescheduled soon!

Maireas · 17/09/2021 16:23

Any ideas for the new thread title?

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 17/09/2021 16:30

'Harry explains his hairdressing skills & Pretzels are the new headgear'

Probably a bit too mad!

'

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 17/09/2021 16:31

I mean Pringles are the new headgear!

Maireas · 17/09/2021 16:39

Grin got to reference Max!

OP posts:
KillingMeDeftly · 17/09/2021 16:45

Pringles are the new black?

KillingMeDeftly · 17/09/2021 16:47

Someone was talking about Max in a green dress recently. This one? It's not the Pringle hat but it's close!

Maireas · 17/09/2021 16:49

That was me, Deftly! Thank you. I couldn't remember where I'd seen it, but I did think it was lovely. (I really like green).

@KillingMeDeftly

Pringles are the new black?
Love this!
TracyBeakerSoYeah · 17/09/2021 16:59

Me too!

Eaumyword · 17/09/2021 17:08

Me three!

And just like that, Max is back - I LOVE that green dress on her, beautiful ♥️

LadyEloise1 · 17/09/2021 17:15

Sweet Jesus you've just reminded me of my mother and her chats. She'd chat for Ireland and get an Olympic medal for it. Smile

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 17/09/2021 17:40

Ooh now that would be an excellent combination with a ref to tv programmes

'Just Like That Max is back with Pringles Are The New Black'

Well @LadyEloise1 I think your Mammy would have had a bit of competition in The World Talking Olympics.
My late Nan could 'jaw' (as she called it' for London & the UK Grin
