Now Where Did I Put My Starter Tiara?

[Maireas]

I think we have at least one tiara each, according to my spreadsheet. Some have parures. Any newbies welcome, log your choices.

Meghan looks good on the Ellen show. Clean and simple lines are definitely her signature look. It was the same when she was a working royal. If she veered into anything overly fussy then it didn't suit her.

Tonight is the Royal Variety Performance. Will we see a gown or cocktail frock from Kate? Possibly a rewear?

She better turn up in something nice to justify the cringe fest that is that show.

@LadyEloise1

Did anyone watch the C4 programme on Diana's Fashion ? My how her tiara glittered as she walked down the aisle ! I presume that is the Spencer tiara.

I did. Although I was distracted by how much Catherine Walker had morphed into Moira Rose

Yep! Mostly just lots of audience shrieking and clapping!

The mystery around Charlene deepens. Apparently Albert has confirmed that she's not actually in Monaco but is resting elsewhere. Having said that, Monaco is only about 2km square so she wouldn't have to go far to be out of the country!

@frugalkitty
I'd say you'll have to wrest the Spencer tiara from the real Kitty ( Spencer ) and her beautiful sisters.

I’m not too keen on the blouse. I get that big puffy sleeves are in at the moment but I hate them and think they’re going to age really quickly. I also hate the slashes/cut outs/whatevertheyare!

Her make up, however, is immaculate! Super gorgeous and glowy swoon 😍

She used to stay in a villa in France. I wonder if she is there.

Someone very close to me had a full nervous breakdown. It was many years ago, but I remember it well and it took this poor person 18 months to come through it, along with a lot of therapy and support and some medication. This sounds very similar. Whatever the reason, I do feel sorry for Charlene and hope she gets whatever treatment and support she needs.

From rereading the press release and Albert's more recent comments, it seems pretty clear that she's suffering from some MH issues. It's sad to see, and must be so hard for her to be going through this in such a public way.

He said something about ‘not just physical tiredness’ is something along the lines. Must be even more exhausting to be back in spotlight.

Twitter tells me the Duchess of Cambridge is in a dark green sequinned dress, possibly a Jenny Packham re-wear.
She does smash it out the park.

I wonder if its the Vampyre's Wife dress?

Whoop she's glammed up!! Her hair looks great like that!

I don't think it's the VW one

She should have worn her strappy choos though

Kate looks fabulous. Love her look.

It’s the dress she wore to the evening gala in Pakistan (when William wore a green Sherwani). It’s a gorgeous dress. She has amped up her lipstick too - nice to see her in a bright colour.

Oooh, she looks good! I love the dress. It's from her Pakistan tour. Fabulous hair and makeup. She's not looking so tired.
Wills in his velvet. I'm betting he has a velvet dressing gown and slippers.

Cross posted, @Serenster - but good point about the lipstick, that's a nice shade on her.

She’s looking lovely there! I do like the brighter lipstick too, it just lifts her a bit.

And yes to Wills in his velvet slippers 😂, who doesn’t like a snuggly velvet dressing gown 😊

@SD1978 nice pick with the sapphires!

Wow, Kate looks great there.
Between this and the James Bond premiere, she is bringing all the glamour.
Va va voom!

Kate looks gorgeous. Love her hair like that. So glad to see that gown again too, it's beautiful.
