Royal Style and Beauty - what goes in the Bold Tower? White stilettos, green coats and too much of the flower?

We're over here!
Welcome one, welcome all!

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.

It may be a Swarovski Millenia necklace ? If not, they have a very similar range:

I think maybe the continental royals take their holidays earlier and schools go back mid-August rather than early September?

EBG Mary and Queen Silvia on engagements.

I love Mary’s dress.
more Estelle and Oscar. They are so like their parents.

They really do look like their parents, though I think Estelle also reminds me a bit of Princess Madeleine.

Mary likes that brown belt at the moment!

From the Mail online, yet another article about Charlene and Albert living separate lives. Charlene is pictured earlier this year, without her wedding ring. I've seen this photo before but never noticed her shoes match those of the man with her!

Easier to see here...

Though I see from NMR that Char and Albert are on holiday with their children in Corsica:

This came up randomly on my Instagram yesterday - someone wrote to KC to ask if he owns a pair of jeans, and the palace replied!

Jury is out on whether this is an admission that he does wear jeans though! Has he ever been spotted in something other than a beautiful suit or a kilt?

His Majesty Enjoys A Wide and Varied Wardrobe should be a contender for next thread title

@CliffsofMohair - 😂
Spot. On!

I know what I'd send to the Bold Tower, Charles.
Those safari suits. Too Much Roger Moore in the worst contributions to the James Bond franchise.
Jeans? I suspect that he has some cords for gardening and general rambling purposes.

Oh that’s right, I’d bleached the safari suits from my memory!

I love that letter.

I love that letter too! 🤣

Camilla has jeans, as shown here, and Charles is I think wearing cords beside her? Probably the closest to jeans that we’ll get!

Photo:

Oh wait - here we go! From 1984 😀

Ah, @Serenster - on it, as usual!
I shall not comment on his jeans style, lest an image of my sartorial choices in the same year should ever be considered for comment....

Diana looks strangely modern in her striped oversized jumper!

But those shoes!

Ah. We all wore low heeled court shoes. I'm thinking there's quite a hem on Charles' jeans. I don't think room for leg growth was necessary 😕

Charles' jeans! They are like prehistoric bootlegs.

I used to want to write in and ask if QE2 allowed dogs on the sofas. Too late now. She must have done, mustn’t she? On the bed?

I'm sure I've seen a picture of the corgis on the sofa.

Where else would they be? 🥰
