Royal Style - make way for the Platinum Jubilee, tiaras are a necessity

[Maireas]

Hello! New thread, will send a link

The Belgian royals have been in Greece so Mathilde has brought out a couple of gowns. The first one is a bit matronly but she looks nice in the pink, and her devotion to matching face masks remains unsurpassed!

My mother would have said Leti was wearing Minnie mouses shoes 😁

[RockaLock]

I love Mathilde's pink dress. She does love a matching face mask, doesn't she!

Her other dress, I think would look less matronly with a more modern, younger-looking hairstyle.

There's a cute video of thread mascot Prince Charles meeting some (I think) red pandas, but I saw it somewhere on Twitter and can't find it now

[RomainingCalm]

Found it on his own IG page @RockaLock - the pictures aren't great but he looks gorgeous in those dungarees! 💙

[MotherofPearl]

Utterly adorable. I can't believe he has his own IG account!

[Maireas]

Charles is so cute!
Mathilde looks lovely in pink, that's a really elegant cut. Not so much the green with the overlay - it's not a flattering shade or style for her.

[RockaLock]

Thank you, @RomainingCalm!

He is such a chubby little cutie.

It's not his, it's just a fan account.

Mathilde's pink dress is lovely.
What was Leti thinking with those white shoes !!!

This. Exactly 😆

Has anyone reserved the Essex tiara? I do not recall seeing it before - lovely and sparkly piece by Cartier and worn by Rihanna too 👑

I've just started the Tina Brown book - it is very entertaining and tells me a few things I didn't know.

Slightly off-topic because not about current royals but here, I hope, is a link to a blog I follow, which shows a great variety of beautiful images, in this case, miscellaneous portraits of females including a number of former queens with some beautiful jewellery:

And a corking final image...

Thanks for this!

Agree re: CPM's lilac not suiting her. Like the style of the dress though.

Modi's evening outfit is beautiful.

Agree about QM in pink! She looks great. The first pic she does revert back to matron style as pp said.

😂 re: Minnie Mouse heels.

[KillingMeDeftly]

The Essex tiara sounds like it would go perfectly with Kate's white stilettos!

[viewsoftheshard]

Just catching up and those tie sleeves on Kate/Catherine reminded me of a similar blouse I had, and ties were always coming undone and ending up in my coffee, or trapped in a door. It went on eBay in the end. But loved that colour on her!

[gluenotsoup]

I agree about the white Minnie Mouse shoes, and dreadful bag, it looks like she’s been to New Looks sale.
I do like the elegant pink dress on Mathilde, and the skirt and shirt on Mary, the cape is ok but the overall shape is a bit shortening and bulky on her I think.

[QueryA]

I like the pink dress on Mathilde. The grey/green one not so much, I think its the cape/sleeves that ruin it. However in the background of that Mathilde green dress picture there are some very unusual shoes

[LadyEloise10]

I see Blake Lively wore a tiara at the Met Gala.
The tiara was a bit underwhelming- not like the ones bagsied by many on these threads. 😀

[KillingMeDeftly]

Tbh with her face, figure and hair, Blake can afford to go low key on the tiara! Her dress was stunning though.

[KillingMeDeftly]

Kate has become patron of the , a cause that's so important that I feel it's churlish to mention what she's wearing! But it's a nice dress.

[gluenotsoup]

Nice dress, I like it. And I like the cause she is supporting too, it feels a bit too superficial to not give it a shout out whilst admiring the frock.

[gluenotsoup]

… and, I like her hair and outfit in the supporting footage😊

[Maireas]

Great link, @SeaRabbit, thanks!
Kate looks lovely, and it's a very worthy and important cause.

Frock is Max Mara apparently. Very nice.
