Love the yellow dress - trying to work out what the earrings are ? Mother of pearl or shell ?

Like the square necked sundress a lot - this is where the espadrilles or espadrille type sandals would have worked - not leather sling backs .

The yellow dress though - very wow (& I detest yellow )

Nnique · 23/03/2022 09:23

Yes exactly red wedges/blue wedges/even the same nude wedges she wore with the other dress would have been acceptable.

Nnique · 23/03/2022 09:24

Oh yes espadrille sandals would have been for a change.

StartupRepair · 23/03/2022 09:26

Love the sundress.

Nnique · 23/03/2022 09:34

*would have been nice

MotherofPearl · 23/03/2022 09:43

These are on sale at Jigsaw and would have fitted the bill I think:

Nnique · 23/03/2022 09:46

Yes they would’ve been perfect.

SnottyLottie · 23/03/2022 10:01

I love the sun dress. So colourful and vibrant. It looks really cool too. Not so keen on the shoes though 😬

MinglingFlamingo · 23/03/2022 10:31

Long time lurker on this thread! I'm afraid I don't have a tiara

Just came on to say I love Sun dress Kate wore in Kingston. Any idea where it's from. It's one of the rare silhouettes she wears that suits me too. And want to get some inspiration

Rainbowqueeen · 23/03/2022 10:57

@MinglingFlamingo there’s a lot of sites that follow Kate and her fashion and ID all the pieces. I like whatKatewore. The blogger is extremely thorough, respectful and knows her stuff. She says the sundress is a vintage piece that originally had spaghetti straps and a matching wrap and that the wrap has been used to alter the neckline

AdaColeman · 23/03/2022 11:04

Kate’s turquoise & coral sundress is a vintage item, possibly with the square neck an addition by her seamstress.
I like the vibrant colours and full skirt, but again I think sandals would have been nicer to complete the look.

Thank you!! Smile

frugalkitty · 23/03/2022 12:11

I don't like the sundress or the shoes. She should have borrowed Meghan's Pom Pom dress! I appreciate I'm about the only one on here who loves the Pom Pom dress so feel free to disagree Grin

KillingMeDeftly · 23/03/2022 12:28

I thought the pom-pom dress was cute and unusual but tbh I liked most stuff Meghan wore!

Nnique · 23/03/2022 12:35

I liked the Pom Pom dress (IIRC - would have to look again to be sure). I really liked Meghan’s olive voluminous dress too and I know that one was marmite...

Northernlurker · 23/03/2022 12:48

I loved all three outfits tbh. Red sandals would have been nice but who knows, maybe her feet swelled after the heels. They look like they're having a great time anyway.

Nnique · 23/03/2022 12:53

They just don’t look right! And I like that style of shoe - it’s not that I hate the shoes but they do look stupid with that dress. It’s all wrong.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 23/03/2022 14:20

Kate's yellow dress is gorgeous, that strong bright yellow really suits her
The sun dress is cute too but no to the shoes

HeyGirlHeyBoy · 23/03/2022 16:20

Eek, definite shoe intervention is needed Maireas, not a hard dress to get it right with. Yellow is lovely but still prefer the Wimbledon yellow.

Nnique · 23/03/2022 16:42

I like the suit. I like the orang top and the bag. She could have worn those sling backs with this outfit. Would’ve been far better imo. Still, I like it.

*orange.

The suit is Alexander McQueen.

Me too. I loved most of her stuff.

You're right about espadrilles - Leti is an espadrille lover come warmer weather and they always look good.
Great bobsleigh picture!
I don't like the latest white shoes.

KillingMeDeftly · 23/03/2022 16:49

It's Kate Travolta in the white suit!!

Just kidding, she looks good and I like the pop of orange.

Nnique · 23/03/2022 16:49

The bag is cute.

I think Kate’s done really well so far on this tour. Just could’ve done with some tweaks on footwear for me.
