Royal Style: On with the chic, and the royal mystique!

[Maireas]

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

It's a weird brown colour on my phone.

This.
I was just thinking it looks like DD2’s beach romper. Sans straps.
What a strange length.

It’s a very dark green. Possibly a necklace with a greenish stone in too

I was trying to be positive about it, as I don’t think it’s got many redeeming features 😂

I like it. I kinda like that ‘everything’s thrown on, I don’t even care if it looks a bit silly as I can carry it off perfectly well’ vibe - even though, as someone said above, it’ll be a highly curated look. If I lived in California (not that I ever, ever would as it’s not my kind of place at all!) I’d probably dress similarly.

I thought she was wearing a toe ring too but on closer inspection I think it’s actually a feature on the sandals.

The hat is my favourite element. Love it. And would definitely wear it.

Meanwhile, on the “not quite sure about that ensemble” front, here is Mathilde and Phillipe arriving in Lithuania for a state visit. Mathilde has a pink and grey Armani coat on, paired with a bright blue flying saucer hat.

It looks quite bonkers in the long view, until you realise that there’s quite a lot of blue in the print at the top of the coat. Not a success though, I don’t think.

Mathilde's style really doesn't appeal to me.

Not keen on Mathilde's look, difficult to say why, except that Armani normally looks a bit sharper than that? I like the brooch, though - that seems interesting.

To quote my mother "It's different" which meant she hated it
Isn't it more an "ombre" effect? Maybe it looks better in person.

I agree with your mum, @hesbeingabitofadick - it is 'different'!
Not my cup of tea either...

HM in boots! And they look fab!

HMQ looks fab there 💕

HMQ looks great there! A touch of Queen Mary with the fur and the style of hat. It's unusual to see her with boots.
Miss her ☹️

I love that whole outfit on HMQ.

I'm afraid I'm not at all keen on Mathilde's ombré outfit.

We all know how much Mathilde loves to match things, so maybe this time she chose something - the hat - that hardly matches at all, to confound our expectations.

Mathilde is related through her grandmother to Lithuanian nobility, so it will be an interesting trip for her.

I'm not sure about Mathilde's Armani coat, it's too busy with the all over pattern and the colour changes, it emphasis all the wrong bits of Mathilde's figure, and the matching patterned bag is definitely step too far.
It might have worked better with a pink hat, to tie it together a bit more.

Mathilde has pulled out all the stops for the Lithuanian state banquet tonight, wearing a striking dress in a gorgeous fabric of orange with a blue tropical flower motif, in a swirling cape design.

It’s pretty much a caftan, but I love the bold print and this she looks really good. I’ve included the picture with the First Lady of Lithuania in it, as she veered a little too close to the “Star Wars General” line for me

it would help if I added the picture…

Do check out MaliaMillsNYC Insta account. They’ve posted a few of the usual negative comments (none of the above) and have turned what could have been the usual trashing of any account that is linked with Meghan into a positive.

I quite like that bold orange/blue pattern.

This is why I've never been a fake tan fan 🤣😂

Thanks, @Serenster - Star Wars General is very apt! Diana Nausediene rocks a pendant, though! I'm all for colour and Mathilde is definitely going bold with this one. Max would look great in this! Very Margo Leadbetter.

More pictures of Leti at the theatre. I like the navy and think it's a different look for her - the backless is quite dramatic. The fake tan doesn't look quite as bad on these pictures, @justasking111 . Lovely earrings.

Definitely a touch of Queen Mary @Maireas
