Royal Style and Beauty: Carpe Diadem! No tears or tiers, just tiaras please

[Maireas]

Afternoon, a new thread and thanks to @ArcaneWireless for the great title! On we go!

And there's a very socially prominent Swedish family with a Scots surname that goes back to an English royal courtier 400 or 500 years ago, but I'm blanking on the name.

It's because the belt is so high. Proper undergarment engineering needed there.

Ok, this is a bit better, Kate: nice blazer, straight navy trousers, flat shoes. Smart and practical. Out with the children, which is nice to see.

Kate's blazer comes with coordinated shorts and she could totally carry this look off!

Oh, she so could! I wish she'd go for it.

She would look great but the DM would have great fun with a “who wore it better”.

Kate has the best legs

I think both look equally good!

Kate's going to be at the ladies final at Wimbledon tomorrow and then presumably William will join her for the men's. Usually that's the last we see of them until September but now they're the Waleses that may not be the case.

I do like that jacket/shorts combo - very chic.
Kate would look amazing wearing that!

I like Kate's outfit today, and of course refreshing to see her in flats.

Does anyone know where Kate's flats are from? I really like them

Emmy London Lulu flats, @TerrysAllGoldGlisters

Thanks @Maireas they're stunning. As is the price tag!

Let me find some dupes ...

There is no doubt though that Kate has better legs than Meghan.

I like Kate's smart casual look today.
Beatrice, Helen Taylor, Sarah Chatto and the Duchess of Gloucester were all at Wimbledon today. No full length pics unfortunately.

That's one of the nicest blazers Kate's worn and perfect with the trousers and flats. I like the buttons and the arched pockets. And yes, she could totally wear the blazer and shorts suit but suspect she never will as the press draw comparisons with Meghan.

Looking at the photos of Family Wales at the air show, do you think we might soon be seeing a beard on William?

Happy birthday, Victoria.
And here are the Spanish royals too.

Lady Helen looks so like the DoK in her Wimbledon trophy-presenting days.

The Spanish princesses clearly take after their mum as they're both very stylish and not afraid of bold (not that kind of bold!) colours. I like both dresses and Leonor's bright espadrilles.

I'm not keen on the sheer bit of CPV's dress but she looks relaxed and happy. Estelle is shooting up and Oscar's suit is adorable!

Morning ladies. I don't often post but I've been a follower of these threads since the early days.
I just had to tell you,I'm on my way to London and first stop is Kensington Palace
I broached the idea of a mini heist to dh but he's not keen. I will see if I can slip something small into my pocket and maybe we can all share 😀😀😀

Morning, @TimeForBedSaidZebadee . Your mission is clear. Good luck 🤞

Oh @TimeForBedSaidZebadee what a treat you lucky thing. Pictures if you're allowed please

Oh good shout. You're passing the initiation test without being asked! Welcome to the gang.

I would love to see Kate in the matching shorts with that blazer, but I don't think we will. It's a bit fashiony.

William with a beard - I would love to see that and maybe he will do it while he is on a summer break (RAF life is probably hardwired in him).

Happy Birthday Victoria. Lovely photos. And the Spanish royals always look fab!
