Here's the Cyclamen tiara, quite delicate looking.

The Cyclamen tiara is really beautiful, so delicate with a simple design.

I do hope the bride chooses it.

Eugenie

That's a big nope from me.

MotherofPearl · 24/04/2023 22:15

Poor Eug; those boots are dreadful. Also the high neck is not good on her. But she is pregnant so I'm prepared to cut her a bit of slack. Smile

justasking111 · 24/04/2023 23:06

Baby due next month. I'm impressed that she could get those boots on 🤣🤣 ugh the effort at this stage

CliffsofMohair · 24/04/2023 23:14

I mean that’s a real ‘f* it it fits I’ll wear it’ outfit. Impressed that she can dress up and be out of the house at 8 months pregnant. I barely fit inside my car at that stage.

AdaColeman · 25/04/2023 00:05

Grin Grin I think you're all being unfair to poor Eug, bless her. Like it says in the little caption, she's "effortlessly elegant" there! Grin Grin

I missed the caption🤣🤣

Were they really lunching with Piers M or did they just bump into him?

mikado1 · 25/04/2023 07:14

Louis looks so different!! Yes to a good chop for Kate, just too long. Would love M's glory makeup! Not royalty, but have you seen Sofia Ritchie wedding? Beautiful looks.

Maireas · 25/04/2023 07:25

Lunching with him, @KillingMeDeftly . I understand that they are friends, particularly Beatrice and her husband.

Yes, the Sofia Ritchie wedding was lovely, she looked beautiful.

Megan looks like Jennifer Lopez in her latest video.

Eugenie and Beatrice just don't dress well, always look so frumpy.

justasking111 · 25/04/2023 08:09

Meghan and JLo you nailed it. Couldn't find the video just stills she looks very different. Her round cheeks are now much less obvious. Clever contact lens use.

gluenotsoup · 25/04/2023 09:31

Just catching up!
Love - Tessie’s dress, Kate’s flats, EBG’s floaty things, the Honeysuckle tiara.
Not loving - Eug’s boots, Kate in beige, Meg’s filters/ contact lens (doesn’t need them).

I'm starting to think Harry was right with his talk about the relationships the royals have with the press! It seems quite murky, plus there's no guarantee that they won't suddenly turn on you. Poor Beatrice was pilloried by the tabloids for years but maybe it's a case of keep your enemies closer?

Meghan has been out at a basketball game in a pink linen shorts suit but linen is not the greatest choice for a seated event! She looks pretty much the same as always so I think it might've just been a weird filter or lighting in the video yesterday.

Chewbecca · 25/04/2023 13:29

Meghan's shorts suit looks great to me but I am not sure about the spiky heels with it. I don't know what the 'right' shoes would be though.
Love Kate's outfit, great trouser shape and flats but would prefer a non beige top half. Beige is such a funny colour, it looks elegant on Meghan but doesn't make Kate glow.

gluenotsoup · 25/04/2023 14:19

I’m a similar colouring to Kate and the beige/oatmeal colours make me look ill. Otherwise, I like it on other people.
I like the soft colour of Megs shorts suit, but I don’t like shorts with heels. It looks a bit dated now, maybe chunkier heels or smart trainers? Don’t know really. It’s one of those outfits that I’d avoid because of the shoe situation.

Chewbecca · 25/04/2023 14:57

Perhaps cage / fisherman’s sandals that seem to be about this year? Not sure it is Meg’s style though.

ChicoryDip · 25/04/2023 16:06

In the pictures I've seen the linen looks particularly badly crumpled and I don't like high heels with shorts. Meghan would have looked fabulous in the pink shorts with just a white t-shirt/sweatshirt and a pair of white trainers/pumps but probably not the look she was aiming for!

I keep seeing these but can't bring myself to wear them - they bring back terrible flashbacks to Clark's sandals in the 1970s! 😱

ArcaneWireless · 25/04/2023 16:08

Meghan looked glorious in that colour. Sadly linen is always tricky.

You are so spot on with this!

CliffsofMohair · 25/04/2023 20:44

Eh… I do not love this ME + EM dress that Sophie is wearing.

Papergirl1968 · 25/04/2023 20:48

On no, Sophie's dress is not a flattering style. Especially around the stomach.

CliffsofMohair · 25/04/2023 21:02

EBG on tour in Fiji. I like the dress and clearly she’s dressing for the climate but the colour washes her out a bit.
