Flora's dress reminds me of that one Kate has. It looks like she's raised the waistline for some reason. Or maybe a very good reason!

The Swedes have gone mad. It’s like Eurovision has gone to their heads or something. Sofia joining us here from 1975.

They always go a bit more out there than usual for this event (the Polar Music prizes - maybe it’s like the Grammys?). I don’t mind Victoria’s dress at all, given this. 🤣

I have high hopes for the Jordanian Royal wedding based on the stunning outfits from the henna ceremony!

My piece de resistance. Delphine de Belgium. At work. I am FASCINATED by her.

I also find her fascinating. She certainly seems to have cultivated quite a 'zany' image.

Absolutely mad!

Morning all 😊

I'm rather liking CPV dress. Agree it looks hi-viz in some pics, but looks better natural light.
And I like Sofias too.

(My disclaimer is it's full on exam season/uni prep in chez locketrocket, so may not be thinking straight!)

CPV you ok hun

😂

Gooseysgirl · 24/05/2023 08:00

Was there a theme? clutching at straws here

Eaumyword · 24/05/2023 08:29

Good grief - CPV channeling her inner doily 🤯
@locketrocket sympathies - we're full on A level drama here too , blerdy exhausting🤞

Serenster · 24/05/2023 08:54

Here’s some of Victoria’s outfits from past ceremonies of the Polar Music awards. She does lean into more exuberant looks for this event 😀

(I prefer the yellow to the big pink froofh!)

Errr.
it’s a no from me about the big bird dress and I don’t like the froufrou pink either. I really like the silver one shoulder and the white one though 🙂

KC & QC out and about in N Ireland today. Love both outfits on QC - she looks great!

A levels here too but only one GCSE as my youngest is doing one early. Much arguing about whose qualifications are better discussion in our household as child number one sat 'real' GCSEs but not A levels (covid) and number two did the covid GCSEs but now 'real' A levels 😂 number three is just biding his time and will out perform the pair of them I reckon!

Re CPV, if a Crown Princess can't have a bit of fun with her outfit at a music awards then when can she?Maybe she gets a bit bored of the pantsuits and floral midi dresses!

GrouchyKiwi · 24/05/2023 19:51

I quite like CPV's Big Bird dress. It's fun.

viewsoftheshard · 24/05/2023 19:52

I actually like the big bird dress, though perhaps a warmer yellow, hot pink would look amazing.

BeaLola · 24/05/2023 19:53

I too wear the M&S full slip under all my dresses - they hang better plus if the shirt blows up your legs are still covered - useful if you're a heifer like me

Fair point

I was about to say thank his Cams isn't wearing green....then scrolled left to the second pic!

paradyning · 24/05/2023 22:07

Thank his?? *thank god she isn't wearing green!

KillingMeDeftly · 24/05/2023 22:14

Victoria's dress is H&M! I've never seen anything like it in-store though...

Papergirl1968 · 24/05/2023 22:28

I must be getting old because i like the Duchess of Gloucester's dress for a garden party today, and I also quite like a lot of Camilla's outfits.

Ah. Now I know I need to stay on this thread for years… we have y10 mocks stress here and I’m going to need some serious tiara distraction to get me through the next few years if this is a taster of things (drama) to come.😬
