Royal Style: silk, stomachers, sapphires and plenty of sass

[Maireas]

New thread!

I love Louis hooking his finger through a button hole on his Mums coat. Kate looks amazing.

I think Kate needed some large angel wings

I think it's a bit casual for the event. More daywear.

I love the Bee Gees! All very snappy dressers.

However, I was thinking more that this is the sort of outfit one of Charlie's Angels would have worn, it's very Jaclyn Smith. Therein may be a hidden message, actually!

I agree with all your comments 

Thank you for the new thread @Maireas, and for going back to collect me from the last thread.
I know, i know, I really must keep up.

No problem, @LadyEloise1 ! Glad you found us! 🙂

I think everyone looked lovely last night, though I agree Sophie's boots don't really work with her coat. (The coat is fab, though. I love a bright colour in Winter.)

Yes, I loved her coat, and it is nice to see those colours in winter.

It’s a shame about the boots, because the rest of Sophie’s outfit was brilliant. Mind you, I understand the temptation for boots in church - they’re always rather cold buildings.

I think Beatrice’s outfit is also spoiled by the boots. Boots are obviously tricky!

I am lol-ing at Kate's face here!!

That’s the type of face I pull when I’m thinking “just behave…” and hoping they can read my mind 😆.
I love the off white- she looks so stylish, that’s perfect for her. I’ll forgive the gold trouser buttons.
Beas tartan has grown on me- not my favourite of recent outfits, but she wears it well.
I like Pippas suit, but personally would have just put the jacket with black cigarette trousers and different shoes- they’re not chunky enough to be chunky but too chunky to be sleek. I think.
All the children are so sweet, nice to see Edo’s son there too, we don’t see him often.

I like Bea’s coat but she wouldn’t be out of place in a Victorian Christmas scene.

I love the ‘no woman left behind’ spririt of this thread

(Apologies for assuming genders there Lady Eloise 😉)

no woman left behind 😁
That's our attitude!

No woman left behind + redistribution of tiaras - seems like the seeds of a revolution

Ah 🥰

There was a fantastic photo of Catherine lighting Louis' candle with family members behind them looking on with concerned faces. I remember feeling exactly the same when mixing candles and children in church.

I don't like the gold trouser buttons but otherwise I thought white was a good change from red. Beatrice has been looking lovely since she married, I never like what Eugenie wears though, she needs her sister's stylist.

Love this 😊

Do love PoW outfit. My biggest concern is grubby hems 😂

No woman left behind tiara revolution, eh? Sounds like time for the green coats to re-emerge. 😆

👍 💚 ✊

Sarah Chatto looks nice in a white coat, as well.

I love the overall all white look of Kate’s outfit but to me the material looks wrong for the season, it looks a bit thin and I would have liked to have seen a more wool texture for both the coat and trousers, the top she is wearing looks a bit drab and thin and the trousers with the gold buttons makes the outfit look unfinished, would like to have seen a belt and some gloves as well.

I thought Pippa looked great - stylish but appropriate for the occasion. Beautiful suit, heels, clutch and sleek hairstyle. Kate - par for the course - she wanted to stand out and so she achieved her aim I guess. Carole Middleton - who usually is so stylish - an unfortunate short tailored cut to the jacket and the velvet trousers/jump suit or whatever it was could have benefited from being more structured. As someone of Carole's age, I am only too aware it's a very fine line to tread to be stylish and modern without looking as though you're trying too hard. So it's a win for Pippa in my humble opinion.

@MrsLeonFarrell
I agree re Eugenie's clothing choices.
Mind you her wedding dress was beautiful on her.
