I love the yellow dress! The full length pictures are fab. Slightly unusual shoes for her too. It's a hit for me bet she's got Jamaican flag undies on underneath

AdaColeman · 22/03/2022 21:08

I adore Kate’s yellow Jamaica dress! Fab choice.

Nice to see Camilla out & about shaking hands and holding babies in County Tyrone today. She and Charlie are in Northern Ireland for a two day trip. Camilla was well wrapped up in a forest green suit and her trusty black boots.

It’s good to see that she’s keeping her focus on helping women who have been the victims of domestic violence, which she highlighted today with a visit to a Woman’s Aid Centre.

Gosh that is a splendid diamond tiara @QueryA. Worth every penny! I'd be happy to stump up the cash if I get to borrow it now and again. Grin

fogglez · 22/03/2022 21:38

OMG I love the yellow dress, it's beautiful & I love the hair.
Wtf are those shoes though!!! So close to perfection 🥲

Nnique · 22/03/2022 21:50

Speaking of tiaras...

@Maireas I’ve found another that I’d like to add to my collection, please! I needed some pearls...

Hoping that this isn’t spoken for!

Alexandra Feodorovna’s drop pearl kokoshnik.

(It was confiscated from Imelda Marcos!)

@Gooseysgirl

Apparently the red jacket is vintage YSL that Kate bought while she was at uni!
Christ. My uni wardrobe was vintage Penney’s (Primark)

@frugalkitty

Nnique fashion most certainly does come around.....my DDarrived back from town today with baggy combat trousers!! Well, hellooooo Bay Trading circa 1995! Grin
Bay Trading 😂

@QueryA

Loving to see all the outfits from Caribbean tour. It’s so nice to see something happy in this sea of miserable news at the moment

Talking of lovely, I’ve been browsing tiara’s for sale. Anyone want to lend me £195,000 for this lovely diamond tiara? Though I’d settle for the aquamarine one at £75,000 which converts to a necklace too. Versatile Grin

The aquamarine is a tad Sophie

Beautiful yellow dress!

LadyEloise1 · 22/03/2022 23:53

The yellow dress is lovely on Kate

RonaldMcDonald · 23/03/2022 01:25

Love the yellow. Love it. Disliked the shoes intensely
I know I’m on my own but I’m not sure of the patterned sun dresses on Kate - it feels like Caribbean dress up

KillingMeDeftly · 23/03/2022 05:41

A vintage 50s sundress for engagements on their first day in Jamaica. It's cute enough and colourful but I preferred the Tory Burch. The nude sling backs are hideous and seem to belong to another outfit. Perhaps she left her red sandals at home!

I like the patterned dress but jeesh the shoes. Bring back the wedges at least.

Maireas · 23/03/2022 06:45

@Nnique - that is a beauty. Sadly, it belongs to QueryA. Maybe share?
I think we need a shoe intervention for Kate.
The yellow dress is lovely, and I quite like the retro striped one, seems climate appropriate.

It is overshadowing Charles and Camilla, but nice pics of them in NI.
I like the way she continues to support Domestic Abuse victims organisations.

Love the yellow dress. Definitely following the Queen's advice on how to stand out in a crowd.

Hepzibar · 23/03/2022 07:05

Love the yellow dress, best outfit by far this trip.
Not getting the love for the patterned dresses. Don't like the neckline on either of them either.

Eaumyword · 23/03/2022 07:09

I agree about Csmilla supporting DV @Maireas 👍

I like the pattern of Kate's sun dress but not the square neckline.
My favourite dresses are the yellow one and the blue Tory Burch.

gluenotsoup · 23/03/2022 07:20

Hmm, I’m on the fence about the stripy dress. It could look lovely (maybe) with more boho hair and different shoes. They really don’t look right with it, horrible.

MotherofPearl · 23/03/2022 07:25

I absolutely love the sundress and especially the square neck! But I agree that red sandals would have been much nicer.

gluenotsoup · 23/03/2022 08:48

Actually, it’s growing on me when you see it in movement. I still think the shoes are wrong though, it needed a more fun, casual red sandal

Nnique · 23/03/2022 08:49

I like the dress. The shoes ate wrong. But she did get it half right by choosing a mid heel.

Nnique · 23/03/2022 08:50

@Maireas ah never mind! I’ll look for another. Smile

GrouchyKiwi · 23/03/2022 09:11

I love the dress. Loathe the shoes. LOATHE.

There's a really fun photo of K&W in the Jamaican team's bobsleigh. Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 23/03/2022 09:12

Would probably help if I attached it.
