Royal Style and Beauty: Open the vaults, alert the nation, get out bling for the Coronation!

[Maireas]

Well, we're in the run up to C day, now. Thanks to @chesterelly for the thread title suggestion 😊

Oops, forgot pic!

There's something not right about the fit of the top half of Sofia's dress and it's a shame as it would've been lovely otherwise. I like the colour on her and the pop of green with the bag is nice.

Carl Philip is 🔥 though!

It's far too long but I like the colour and the green bag.

It doesn't fit quite right, is it a knitted fabric? They're such an attractive couple.

Eugenie has shared a photo of August and Sienna at the zoo on Instagram. Only from the backs though so I guess some people won't like that! Sienna appears to be strawberry-blonde so perhaps she's inherited the Beatrice and FERGIE hair genes!

No idea why autocorrect capitalised Fergie but it seems to suit her 🤣

Some major bling to be purchased here!
I may acquire some earrings

😂😂 I would also add an exclamation mark!

Oh Maireas you are bold ! 😀

😂😂 I'm a bold girl!

That's an odd choice for Sofia. Is it a jumper and skirt? Has she got the jumper on back to front, causing those strange folds? Was it made for someone else entirely?
Lovely colour though, what used to be called heather in the olden days! I like the green bag!
He looks extremely dapper, he can go on my list along with Edo!

I think it's a fail on 2 counts for Sofia. It is not figure enhancing ( in fact the opposite ) and the colour in the photograph "drains" her.

She usually lights up a photo.

I like the colour but I'm just itching to straighten the top (still don't think it's wouldn't fit properly).

Afternoon all

What do we think of this for a wedding look www.instagram.com/p/CrWH7i4sBjB/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

I love the concept but not sure it works together?

I like it as an outfit for a civil wedding - the church wedding is next week - but I absolutely LOVE her peony bouquet. Stunning!

I agree that dress is a miss for Sofia.

Agree with @Serenster on the trouser suit. I'm sure Alexandra will get out the Elie Saab for the church wedding!

@Maireas I also have a new high spec telly box.
I told DH it was for him to watch the sport on

Not sure about wearing white. I'd end up covered in stains (and cat fluff) before the Coronation started 🤦‍♀️

It's very like something her mum would wear. But perfect for a civil ceremony. Hope she goes full on Saab like her SILs

@pussycatinfluffyslippers - yay!
Oh, I can never wear white. I once made the mistake of buying white linen trousers and went out for a meal. I looked like I'd been sleeping rough in a dumpster.

Happy Birthday to Prince Louis. Goodness me, he's cute! 💙

Looking bigger now! Such a cute little boy.
Unusual that the picture isn't taken by Kate.

Royal look on a budget

Duke of Westminster is engaged, wonder which tiara the bride will wear. His Dad bought his Mum this parure as an engagement gift to wear on their wedding day https://www.thecourtjeweller.com/2021/08/a-spinel-tiara-for-an-aristocratic-bride.html

The Westminsters have some beautiful tiaras. Not least the Cyclamen.
