Royal style continues!
Thanks to Deftly for the thread title. Let's hope there's more Gucci and Chanel.....fewer coat dresses..,.

@KillingMeDeftly ShockGrin
Is it Mary / Kate. ?
or
Mary / Marie ?

KillingMeDeftly · 18/02/2022 13:21

Marie is in Paris so alas has to miss this first meeting of 2022 of the Brunette Princess Club. Junior member Ingrid Alexandra of Norway is also unable to attend due to school commitments...

Love that KillingMeDeftly.

I found a couple of appropriate outfits. Grin

Where'd you find the shot of Kate, William and Louis' Book Day costumes @RomainingCalm??

KillingMeDeftly · 18/02/2022 13:35

Another possibility? Kate has worn this side of blue before.

Good suggestions!

Wonder if they will chat beforehand about what colours they are wearing?
Just want to really recommend the interview with Mary I posted on the previous page. She reflects on the last 20 years, how she adjusted to Denmark and the DRF. It's a nice watch.

I loved watching that, @StartupRepair. Thank you for finding it!

Not much happening royal style wise but saw this of Anne out with Charles the other day. I don't like this green coat dress thing of Anne's, and am perplexed by the extra gold button, second from the top. Is it a button, or a weird brooch? I like the actual brooch though!

Maireas · 21/02/2022 12:08

It is unusual for them to do an engagement together. I know what you mean about Anne's outfit. That seems a strange button, but she's also wearing another brooch? I like the colour of the dress, but it seems like quite a stiff brocade material.

Anne suits that colour

SeaRabbit · 21/02/2022 14:06

That outfit fits where it touches: it's a nice colour, but that is it.

KillingMeDeftly · 21/02/2022 14:30

Nice shade of green but a very 80s silhouette. And knowing Anne, that's probably when she bought it!

Eaumyword · 21/02/2022 15:02

I don't love Anne's outfit. Very 80's as you say, Killing.
I do like her for always being so functionally dressed and she has a great figure.

KillingMeDeftly · 21/02/2022 15:27

That she does @Eaumyword. There's not many women in their 70s who can still fit into clothes they wore in their 30s!

LadyEloise1 · 21/02/2022 20:15

CPV and her husband have come out denying rumours of a troubled marriage.
A comment on the article by a random person said it was the Danish Royals. 🙁

KillingMeDeftly · 21/02/2022 20:25

How odd. I didn't even know there was a rumour!

Leti's visiting a charity for the orphans of the armed services. In navy nappa leggings and bouclé coat. I think the coat is a little odd with the contrasting section. However, she certainly rocks the leggings. Classic Leti stilettos.

MotherofPearl · 21/02/2022 23:10

Now I'm afraid I really dislike that look of Leti's. That coat is all kinds of wrong. She seldom gets it badly wrong but this is one of those times.

Eaumyword · 22/02/2022 06:22

It's the middle section for me that jars. I quite like the jacket and I quite like the leggings, but don't like the middle tweed section!

Maireas · 22/02/2022 07:27

I was thinking the same, Eaumyword.
I like a bouclé jacket, but the skirt band doesn't really work. She's worn this outfit before, though, so she obviously likes it.

Are we allowed crowns as well as tiaras? I've just discovered this one. The oldest known crown to be worn by English royalty - known as Princess Blanche's crown. I think it would go with most outfits Grin

That's a beaut. Going to have to Google Queen Blanche now.
