@Maireas

She's Sheikah Amna bint Abdulaziz bin Jassim Al Thani, a member of the Qatari royal family and director of the National Museum of Qatar, Google tells me.

The account that the other photo is from also has a close-up of her turban ornament 😍

Thank you, @delfttulipvase .
That brooch is gorgeous.

I've been to the national museum of Qatar and it's beautiful. Not only a great collection of Islamic art and artefacts but an amazing building too. IM Pei came out of retirement in his 90s to design it!

KillingMeDeftly · 08/05/2023 12:40

Oh no wait, that was the national gallery I went to. The museum wasn't built then.

Nope my friend.

Hello Fresh. And grow my own herbs.

Just call me Fanny Cradock.

No. Thankfully 😂

If I did, it would be the biggest failure of targeted internet marketing ever 😂 My cookies skew more towards Go Outdoors and Sportsshoes.com… obviously I wear my tiara at all times mind you 👑

😂😂 for ages all I got was memory foam mattresses and Hotter shoes, so it's not all glamour.

No Johnny at my disposal. I do have green food colouring for my mash though.

And a canny piping bag. 😏

ArcaneWireless · 08/05/2023 12:58

There is a lot to be said for a comfy bed and comfy feet Maireas. 😚

KillingMeDeftly · 08/05/2023 12:59

I keep getting ads for Berganza. The prices on there are enough to make Garrard look like H Samuel!

Now. Gloucester Cathedral has my one of my most favourite chapels ever. And I’ve been in a lot.

Princess Anne looks good there.

ArcaneWireless · 08/05/2023 13:41

The hemming on that RAF uniform skirt …

Unsure if it was a rush job or not pressed properly but my gaffer (RIP) would not have liked that.

DisforDarkChocolate · 08/05/2023 13:44

When did this thread become anti-Meghan? Can we stick the style and beauty and keep away from the cheap digs?

justasking111 · 08/05/2023 13:55

Banana bread
Mercedes
Garrard's

Interesting 😎

ArcaneWireless · 08/05/2023 14:05

It isn’t anti anyone Disfor. Not that I’ve seen.

It was one comment - one - and it was clearly in jest.

From what I’ve seen here, there are oft little asides about most of the Royal players.

And plenty of lovely comments about the DoS.

I know. Because I’ve made some too.

Huh? I actually quite like Meghan, I was just making a joke about that guy being her in disguise. It wasn't remotely meant to be anti-her.

It could've been like an action film where the frail old man stands up and peels off his mask to reveal he's the hero in disguise!

KillingMeDeftly · 08/05/2023 14:08

Anyway, here's another link to the new thread in case anyone missed the earlier post http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/styleandbeauty/4801759-royal-style-and-beauty-st-edwards-crown-is-back-in-the-box-time-for-more-diamonds-glitter-and-frocks
