Evening Royal Style fans!
I hope we can have some fabulous winter fashion and tiara events!

Yes, school trousers! That's exactly what they look like.

I loved both of Eugenies dresses for her wedding, and especially the tiara and earrings.
Kate looks nice today, but the trousers were a teensy bit too long or the heels were lower than usual, and they dragged a bit. Not that I can be particularly picky, as I am currently rocking a pair of slightly too short leggings with hideous the-only-clean-pair-I-could-find socks… 😂.
I did spot these today on the Cox and Cox website and thought of you all prepping for Christmas 🙂

I rather like those Christmas baubles!

The people demand bling!

Great title for our next thread!

MotherofPearl · 13/10/2022 19:58

I'm not at all keen on Kate's outfit today. I don't like black with blue, or black with any colours really, it looks cheap to me. I agree that the trousers aren't a good fit.

KillingMeDeftly · 13/10/2022 20:00

I remember Trinny and Susannah used to say that black wasn't meant to go with colours!

Maireas · 13/10/2022 20:02

No, it never seems to work.
(Disclaimer: I only wear black at funerals)

The "cheap" trousers are Roman Mouret and cost over £1000!

Maireas · 13/10/2022 20:04

Whaaat?! I thought they were from Next 🙄

Max and Wax still in Sweden. I'm not convinced by Max's headband I'm afraid. Good colours on her though I think.

Ooh, sharp blazer. Nice colour combo.

No silly nail polish rules for Maxima!

Max does diggers!

Oh and Silvia and Maxima might have coordinated their outfits!

That's just brilliant.

Also a really lovely photo of Estelle and Willem-Alexander (who is her godfather).

Bloody love this woman

Long time lurker here. Love reading all your posts (and currently working out what bling is left to nab Grin)

That's very sweet. The two families do seem close and appear to genuinely get on. Wax and Max looked thrilled when they arrived and got off the plane open armed. I was also struck by the hugging, which seemed unusual for RFs. Unusual but nice!

It does sound vaguely rude though (only realised after I’d posted!) Blush

More photos from the gala dinner

I love that blazer on Kate I think this blue looks much better on her than the pastel blue long coat. Omg the price of the trousers !
@justasking111 thats a lovely idea with the scarves and brooches. I’m very jealous of you ladies who wear a formal jacket to work with a brooch.
@Maireas omg I couldn’t not wear black lol. I used to wear it a lot when I was younger but over the years I’ve introduced a lot more colour to my wardrobe. Even my husband says black suits me and he literally never notices what I’m wearing!

Oh wow how glamorous does she look getting into the digger ! Love the matching shoes.

Where would Kate have got the vintage Chanel from?

Do you think it’s possible it was Diana’s? I did think her clothes had all been auctioned off or was that only the “memorable” ones ?

Maireas · 13/10/2022 21:54

Oh no. It would not be Diana's.
You can buy vintage Chanel at various outlets.
