Royal Style: Quality jewellery, quality clothes and maybe a bit of Quality Street

[Maireas]

New thread for royal style and beauty fans.
Keep up the interesting, witty and wry observations!

Thanks @Serenster.

The skirt is fab and yes, boho chic really suits Mary; she does it so well.

The skirt reminds me of the boho chic look Kate adopted on her visit to India some years ago. It really suited her.

Yes she did rather well on that visit. Lots of lovely clothing and beautiful dresses. The only couple of things I seem to remember is that she tended to mis matching the style of shoes/jewellery with the outfits she wore. But it was was quite minor.

I think if she did boho chic now she’d get it much more right on those small counts.

Oh dear, Fred's jacket clashes horribly! Love her outfit though.

I think it might be the lighting on that image. Looks very different on other photos. Although I thought it was alright even in the brighter tone - I think it still ties in enough to be okay in that posh sort of way.

Also I think I might spy open-toed, heeled espadrilles for Mary.

Leather strap. Could just be open-toed sandals.

Fred's shoes remind me of a pair I had many years ago. Friends called them magic mushroom shoes 😅

@TangledWebOfDeception, you are spot on there with your observations. If you or @SenecaFallsRedux start a new thread elsewhere please count me in!
(you can’t go Seneca, where else will we get the historical stuff from!??)
I love Mary’s skirt 😍, it’s so elegant. I do like it with the white shirt, very crisp and modern, but I’d also like to see it with a softer, more boho type top, maybe a silk shirt? Or something 😂

Oh dear.

They do look awful.

I suspect he went for comfort over fashion...but then so do I.

All I can hear is Alan Partridge. Sorry.

😂😂 - I wonder if there's a Danish version?!

🤣🤣 I don’t know if they have their own version, but they’ve probably shown the original. Danish TV loves a classic U.K. comedy.

(Or they did years ago...no clue what actually goes on at home now!)

Magic mushroom shoes… once heard, never forgotten 🤣
The Spencer honeysuckle tiara is seriously sparkly! I prefer it without the meander element added at the bottom.

Hey all, just another namechange. I collect them like I collect tiaras...

And yet more, attending a memorial for Gandhi (hence the slippers)

I like both dresses - the first one is very elegant, what's that colour? Burnt sienna? Ochre?
The flowery one is nice, and appropriate.

It’s more of a warm dusky pink. We’ve seen it on the threads before as it’s a re-wear. It looked a bit washed out on the photos from the previous occasion, IIRC. I think it’s a lovely colour and really suits her.

Fred's smartened up a bit.

And quite appropriately! I guess yesterday was really just sightseeing whereas these photos are from dressy dinner/significant event.

She looks great.
If I was being picky, I'd say his navy suit jacket looks a little tight.

I reckon that’s Christmas belly.
