Norwegians looking fabulous at the joint 50th birthday celebration for MM and HH.

Rather a daring dress choice for Ingrid but I like it! I think she's been on holiday recently judging from the tan lines!

I rather like MM's bag. It's just a little bit bonkers, but nice.

I see MM's dress is VW.

No sign of Shaman Durek, as far as I can tell?

King Charles and Queen Camilla at Balmoral today. Something not quite right with Camilla's outfit, I think the skirt is too short and maybe matching her hat to Charles' socks was a step too far.

Camilla's worn that suit before, I just don't think that hat goes with it.
His Majesty continues to enjoy a wide and varied wardrobe....😉

I think it's the shape and fit of that hat that doesn't do her any favours.

Eaumyword · 27/08/2023 09:19

I think Cams is a blue palette gal and the (gorgeous) red colour is too harsh against her hair and skin.

Maybe it's the side angle - she wouldn't see that in a mirror. It might look better face on.

Is Camilla a Spring or a Summer ?

Her hat matching Charles socks !!! @ChicoryDip Smile

Nice! I've only just realised that "New Look" does not refer to the shop 🙄

Is the country western look on trend right now?

KillingMeDeftly · 27/08/2023 10:48

I also like Martha Louise's caftan-inspired dress below. Not everyone could get away with that style but it suits her hippy vibe. No sign of the Conman Shaman!

Some pics of the newest German baby’s christening - our Lux babies are going to have competition for Thread Mascot . Best wishes to the parents who have gone through so much to be together and to have their family.

Prince Christian in attendance as one of the godparents. Not loving Mary’s ensemble here but maybe she was dressing low key as not to deflect from the stars of the show. Can’t see where they are identified individually but the young blonde lady 6th from left is a ringer for Gabriella Windsor. Those German genes are strong!

Oh, born via a surrogate? Does that exclude the child from any line of succession? It would in the UK. Anyway, all manner of complicated events with relationships, it would seem, so it's nice to see a happy family group picture. Such a cute baby!

Serenster · 27/08/2023 11:22

I think not Maireas because it’s not a “state” succession and the German state abolished all hereditary titles after WWI. So this is very much a private family matter (so, it was the terms of the grandfather’s will that delayed Carina and Gustav’s marriage, not German law. Once they successfully challenged that aspect of the will, the wedding would not disallow Gustav and his heirs from inheriting. I suspect the will was drawn up at a time when surrogacy was not even thought of!)

Maireas · 27/08/2023 11:25

Thank you, @Serenster (as ever!) that makes sense.

Who is the lady on the left in the big hat and glasses? She reminds me of Iris Apfel!

KillingMeDeftly · 27/08/2023 12:31

I think that's Theodora of Greece so she and Gabriella would be what? Second or third cousins?

Maireas · 27/08/2023 12:35

Gabriella Windsor looks so like her Aunt, Princess Alexandra, and also A's mother, Princess Marina.

Max going for a rock chick vibe there...
