I'm going to siesta on the sun lounger, kick it if I snore. I had an early start this morning 🌄

Welcome, @MrsLeonFarrell ! You'll require a tiara. No view on Erdem? White stilettos? We'll find your pet hate soon enough 😉

Will put a fringe tiara (my favourite) in my shopping list - I'm sure Waitrose will not let me down.

I liked Catherine's dress a lot more when she stood up and the buttons were balanced by the plainer skirt half.

Maireas · 17/06/2023 14:36

Fringe tiara - can't go wrong. I favour a Kokoshnik myself.
Is that @justasking111 snoring?
Has she started on the Pimms?

I wonder whether we will see the black version of today's coat at a future, more sombre, engagement. I prefer the black version tbh.

Ah, there's a black version. It's quite dramatic.

I like all the TtC dresses and hats today - I sometimes wonder if PoW and QC coordinate hat sizes: “you go Large on that hat this year, I’ll go Large next year and you can do the diagonal brim thing instead to ring the changes if you want.”

I really love the picture of PoW, the King, the new Duke of Edinburgh and Princess Anne (the hardest one of all of them) in their bearskins and her hat as well.

Meghan’s casual look also right up my street. She looks great.

Having seen more pics of Kate's dress, I really don't like the buttons. Way too Per Una for me. Without them the dress would have been lovely, there was just no need to plonk big buttons on it.

Maireas · 17/06/2023 16:05

Yes, I agree @notsuchafrugalkitty - I think it's a nice, clear green, and the buttons are an over embellishment. The hat looks great, though.

Ok, who drank all the Pimms?? I’ll have to have a g and t instead, while I’m draped over the sun lounger trying to look effortlessly stylish.

Not keen on the sparkly buttons today, the outfit didn’t need it, just the shamrock was enough.
We should have predicted the regiment links with the clothes though, we were too busy packing for the yacht trip and dropped the ball a bit there😁.
I loved Sophie’s outfit with the covered buttons at the side, very pretty.

Maybe they have to coordinate hat size or otherwise they won't fit into the carriage together!

Maireas · 17/06/2023 17:51

Good point, @MrsLeonFarrell . Awkward if someone had to lean out over the side.

This is a great photo. Kate's dress is by Andrew Gn. Is that a departure for her? I don't think I've seen her wear the brand before.

Ummm...... 🙈

Maireas · 17/06/2023 19:00

I don't think she's worn any Andrew Gn before. Nice to try different designers.
Nearly time to put on the tiaras for dinner on deck.

You look suitably ashamed lockettocket, so I’ll let you off and share my gin 😂

MotherofPearl · 17/06/2023 19:04

Catching up after a day out.

Love that photo of Louis that @KillingMeDeftly posted.

Is it wrong that of all today's outfits I love - indeed covet - Charlotte's? I love a sailor dress. Blush I can't say I'm fond of POW's green outfit (Quality Street green triangle colour?).

@notsuchafrugalkitty your Princess of Whales comment made me chuckle!

I'm really enjoying #yachtlife. My tipple this evening on deck will be ice cold rosé.

MotherofPearl · 17/06/2023 19:06

Oh and I love Meghan's casual outfit, and the Fendi bag too. She is excellent at casual chic.

Maireas · 17/06/2023 19:07

She is. That Fendi bag is gorgeous. I also love her flats.

Just catching up on the day - I love Kate and Sophie's outfits. They both look fabulous.
Meghan looks good in casual jumper and jeans.

Maireas · 17/06/2023 19:15

Yes, and she's wearing skinnies - didn't you say upthread they would come back in again, @KillingMeDeftly ?!

OP posts:
notsuchafrugalkitty · 17/06/2023 19:17

I bypassed the pimms and went straight for the champagne. Keep it coming, no school till Monday!

mikado1 · 17/06/2023 19:25

Love the shade on Kate and her makeup looks lovely too. Meghan's shoes 😍 Anyone know where they're from?

Maireas · 17/06/2023 19:32

Nothing on Meghan's Closet yet.

Thanks Maireas. They look like they have a strap, but might be how she's walking. I've seen some similar on flattered and Clarks so would like to see a plain pic to see if they're similar, if that makes sense as they look lovely on.
