Oh, I missed that one, so very affordable. I still think it looks cheap though😂.
I like Kate’s look today, she seems to be finding a new “uniform”, but it works - sleek, modern and discreet. I do like blue though.

Tunnocks tea cakes are great.

Princess Anne in Shibumi at a Garden Party today . Silk and wool mix so she will have been warm . I love the colour way of this coat , I have a rather more muted grey .

MotherofPearl · 11/05/2022 18:31

Damn you all for giving me a massive craving for Tunnocks teacakes!

I like Kate's Scotland outfit today. Good powers of prediction there @chesterelly1!

QueryA · 11/05/2022 18:42

Anne looks fab! I love that outfit. Camilla in a similar style to yesterday but not quite as nice

I really like Anne's outfit! That's a lovely style and colour. Great hat, too!

Anne looks really nice.

I like Caramel Logs the best, but you don't often see them.

gluenotsoup · 11/05/2022 19:59

Ah, they both look great, confident in their own styles.
I love Anne’s coat, I wouldn’t have thought to be the green hat with it but it does work.

KillingMeDeftly · 12/05/2022 07:56

I was hoping there would be an evening engagement in Scotland last night so that Kate could get out a nice frock but no such luck!

AdaColeman · 12/05/2022 10:15

I really like Anne’s coat, the style, the fabric and colours are lovely, but I think the sage green hat looks awful with it. How much better the ensemble would look with a lavender coloured hat!
Anne has worn that hat previously, with a beautiful green silk coat and dress, which the hat looked perfect with.

Serenster · 12/05/2022 10:16

I thought both Anne and Camilla looked good yesterday - very different styles, but both in great coat-based outfits.

Beatrice and Edo attended the Royal Windsor Horse Show last night - she’s in a Vampire’s Wife dress. I am a fan of their aesthetic generally, so really like this on her. Bea has an air of someone who’s in a really happy place in her life just now, which is nice to see.

Beatrice looks really good these days. And Edo is pretty easy on the eye too. I like his velvet tux!

KillingMeDeftly · 12/05/2022 11:36

Apparently the royals will be making an appearance at the Royal Windsor Horse Show this week, and all HMQ's great-grandchildren (barring the little Sussexes) will be there too.

SirSidneyRuffDiamond · 12/05/2022 12:11

I think Beatrice has really grown into her looks and has an enviable figure - especially considering she only had a baby in September. Edo is very good looking but I always get a slightly "off" feel from him. I'm not sure why but as my dear old mum would say "I wouldn't trust him further than I could throw him." He does wear clothes well though and they always look happy together.

AmberLynn1536 · 12/05/2022 13:42

Bea looks great and so slim, I can only see the tips of her shoes but they look very black and clumpy, not what I would have chosen for that dress. I agree Sirsidney There is something shifty about Edo, but he does appear to make Bea very happy.

hopeishere · 12/05/2022 13:57

That dress on Bea is super!! Really flattering. And she does look very happy.

Serenster · 12/05/2022 14:20

I put Edo into the same category as Christopher Neil, Princess Madeleine of Sweden’s husband. He always seemed a bit too much like the slightly shifty rebound guy with an eye for the main chance to me (much like Edo did too!). Then Christopher won me over at their wedding by tearfully sobbing all the way through it, and clinging happily onto his new bride at every chance he got. Obviously we didn’t see this couple’s wedding, but Edo plays a good game of looking like he’s tenderly solicitous towards Bea, so gets the benefit of the doubt from me.

gluenotsoup · 12/05/2022 16:14

I think he comes across as a little aloof, but suspect it’s just his very upper class ways😂. He always seems very respectful and aware of royal traditions and hierarchy- the bow to Wills, and is very deferential towards Bea so I actually am warming to him. He is always impeccably stylish, and - personal fussiness alert - his jacket sleeves are always the perfect length, showing the right amount of cuff.
Bea- I love the dress on her. She suits the colours, fit, she’s just glowing. I can’t see the shoes.

Maireas · 12/05/2022 16:53

Velvet jackets are having a moment with the gents, aren't they? I agree that Beatrice looks nice, but I really don't like those Vampires Wife dresses very much, the fabric always looks a bit shiny and I don't like frills anywhere much, but certainly not around the hem. The pattern and colour are nice, though.

I agree with you @AdaColeman re Anne's hat. It was as if she was rushing out the door and grabbed the nearest hanging on the hat stand. Smile

Maireas · 12/05/2022 17:15

Now this I like - Leti in a floral skirt and green blouse, both Carolina Herrera. Very pretty and summery without being too fussy.
She's in her espadrilles - it must be summer! 😉

LadyEloise1 · 12/05/2022 17:30

Beatrice looks great but like Maireas I'm not keen on the dress.
I'm not keen on Edo either - fiancée and a small child in the mix.

gluenotsoup · 12/05/2022 20:18

Leti’s skirt and top are lovely, very fresh and pretty.

gluenotsoup · 12/05/2022 20:20

Meanwhile, Anne was at a garden party today, again looking springlike.
So - what do you think? Did she get yesterday and today’s hats mixed up?
I prefer the green one 😊

Was this the outfit she wore to Zara's wedding?.

Those black gloves are hideous with the pastel coat.

William was flying solo in Scotland today so I guess Kate went back last night.
