Was Kate at the rugby today ?

Maireas · 12/03/2022 21:22

grey - a crime against style imo.
Dear me, how very bleak, as you say, MotherOfPearl!
We need a Max intervention! Bring on the orange!

Not fashion related (do I remember correctly that these threads were originally style and gossip? ) That story on the bbc about the Queen not attending the commonwealth service, it causally drops the info that Harry is not attending Prince Philip memorial service later this month. Which is shame. Not least because if Harry and Meghan visited we would get some good fashion to discuss Grin www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60715218.amp

Oh dear, all they need is a "Live Love Laugh" sign to complete the look.

Oscar isn't feeling it.

Do we need pictures of Max? I think we do.
She's doing some voluntary work, clearing up with enthusiasm. Wax looks the part, bless him.

You beat me to it @Maireas, I was about to post this action shot of Max down the farm!

Were any royals at the rugby yesterday ?

@LadyEloise1

Didn't see any.

I read that William and Kate are not attending the Baftas this year. That's a disappointment as Kate usually wears something noteworthy.

You're right, they've been some of her most stylish and elegant looks. It is a shame.

Kate took over from Harry as patron of English rugby. I was sure she'd be at the match yesterday Hmm
Kate, William and George were at a recent rugby match - the England Wales match.
I know Boris sat with our Taoiseach ( Irish Prime Minister ) at the match but it's not quite the same 🙁

Will Kate be presenting shamrock to the Irish Guards.
Green coat alert Smile

Maireas · 13/03/2022 16:23

Oh, yes - green coat alert indeed!
A couple of years ago, someone on here did a very helpful montage of Kate's green St Patrick's Day coats!.

Well Boris isn't the PM of England for a start ☺️

Kate looked tired and drawn the other day, feet up with a takeaway and glass of wine watching it on the TV would be my advice.

KillingMeDeftly · 13/03/2022 17:25

I liked the white one-shouldered BAFTA gown at the time but looking at it now there's something odd about the fit of the bodice. For a custom-McQueen you'd think it would be better constructed!

MotherofPearl · 13/03/2022 17:27

That white one shoulder dress is gorgeous, I agree @Maireas

justasking111 · 13/03/2022 17:32

Think my favourite one was this

This is cute about Estelle's coat. They are hand me downs from Ingrid-Alexandra

KillingMeDeftly · 13/03/2022 17:51

I must be very contrary as I didn't like that gown either! It felt a bit dated. I don't think any of Kate's BAFTA looks have been that memorable. If she'd attended this year maybe she could've worn the Bond premiere gown again!

The stars are on the red carpet as we speak but the only truly outstanding look I've seen so far is Lady Gaga looking very old-time glam.

KillingMeDeftly · 13/03/2022 17:55

Here's some of tonight's BAFTA looks. Yes I know they're not royals but we could do with some gowns and jewels to look at!

Good to know that after two years of lockdowns the designers have lost the plot in many cases. Some awful outfits 🤣🤣
