Back at Anmer, William hauls himself to his feet, flings the remote control at the wall, turns to Charlotte and says “EVERY TIME! And THAT’s why we’re not in Australia” before going to his manshed to sulk.

Letizia looks good!

Clare Waight Keller who designed Meghan Markle's Givenchy wedding dress is doing a collection for Uniqlo. Can't say I'm a fan of the collection but interesting that shes branching out to designing for more affordable brands

Thanks, @miri1985 . Interesting - it's difficult to tell from those pictures, but it seems like the collection is very much loose, oversized separates. Quite muted. No florals or bold colours!

Interesting. Trench coats are all over the place here in the US for fall. Also muted colors and classic designs, all part of the "quite luxury" vibe that is current now. For lovers of stronger colors, I'm also seeing quite a bit of deep blue; one retailer even calls it "blue majesty." It's a color that both Camilla and Catherine wear, and I wonder if the coronation(s) are the inspiration.

KillingMeDeftly · 20/08/2023 16:24

Yes @SenecaFallsRedux it seems to give off that understated luxe look that's favoured by the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and indeed Meghan herself. Though as it's Uniqlo it won't actually be luxury fabrics used!

Leti didn't look super happy.to.be there! But she tried to be nice to.our coach which I appreciated.

Papergirl1968 · 20/08/2023 20:28

Here's a different pic of Letizia.
And President Zelensky meeting the Swedish and Belgian royals.

Not sure about Leti's suit there. The flared leg is a bit Elvis Has Left the Building.

Maireas · 20/08/2023 20:44

I do like that red that Leti wears, it's a great colour, but I have a devil of a job finding clothes in that shade. I saw that Zelensky was meeting KCG.
Is that Mary, top right picture?

Yes, it's Mary, @Maireas

The Spanish coach is very controversial.

😂I agree! Not keen on flares.

Gorgeous photos of Charles and Francois.

I get the feeling that GDMT is pretty proprietorial with them!

Eaumyword · 21/08/2023 20:04

Oh I like Leti's red trouser suit - very wearable.
Not keen on CPM's trouses though - I'm confused by the disappearing feet!

Maireas · 21/08/2023 20:10

Our mascots! 😍! How adorable.
Francois looks as cute as Charles.

The kids are adorable! I think Claire and Felix have another one on the way too?

And GDMT is certainly rocking the caftan and major earrings!

justasking111 · 22/08/2023 08:37

Another baby AHH lovely, they're all impossibly cute. 💙

Serenster · 22/08/2023 14:25

Also in the cute camp (with a side of how are they growing up so quickly?!) here is Estelle and Oscar with Victoria welcoming the Swedish football team home after they came third in the World Cup. Bonus Carl-Phillip hiding in the background too. I love how alike in mannerisms Victoria and Estelle are. 😀

I love Estelle’s dress. Would wear that.

MotherofPearl · 22/08/2023 15:05

I love CPV's shoes.

Also love Estelle's yellow dress. It reminds me of this one of Kate's (no. 12 in the Tatler yellow dress collection posted by @Maireas upthread).

William looks so young in that photo! Kate pretty much looks the same now as she did then.

MotherofPearl · 23/08/2023 10:15

CPV really suits this full skirt look (it's a rewear I think).

I wonder if her beautiful necklace is real amethysts? It's not part of the Swedish RF's stunning Napoleonic Amethyst Parure, as far as I can tell.

Interesting that the Swedish and Danish RF seem to be back at work but no sign of the British RF!
