Royal Style: with hope, our threads continue

[Maireas]

Evening everyone. I'm starting this new thread at a bit of a sad time, and I know we're all thinking of Kate and her family. Let's hope that as we continue in our lighthearted way, good news arrives for her, and others who are in a similar situation, either themselves or loved ones.🌷

I like the casual outfit on Meghan. It looks lovely and cool.

That's great. What a fantastic cause.

Eagle eyed fashionistas on the internet have picked up that Meghan’s friend Abigail Spencer wore the exact same dress, credited to the designer, back in October last year, and published a heap of pictures of it on instagram. I wonder if Meghan saw it and loved it, or borrowed it from Abigail?

Albert and Charlene at the ATP masters with Jacques but no sign of Gabriella. Charlene looking very chic in the navy and white - although is the blazer too short? Her hair and makeup lovely.

Beatrice Borromeo also looking good in the green.

Albert, Charlene and Jacques went to the Monte Carlo Masters tennis tournament.
Albert in another badly fitting jacket. Even the trousers look a mess with a phone or wallet or something shoved in the pocket.

They all look like they're in matching outfits!

Albert just looks like such a complacent slob. A version of the pub bore who is happy to opine on how women have "let themselves go" and "ooh, wouldn't touch that one with yours, mate".

They do!

From the pics we can see, I love this look on Meghan. She’s got a lovely toned back. This is a look I can never pull off as I need a bra but I’m envious of in others, so sexy yet chic.

Hopefully we’ll see some from the front.

Thanks for the link to the halter neck evening dress. It looks very chic.

Char looks great, I like that Ralph Lauren style of navy jacket and white trousers.
MM suits a halterneck, that black dress looks great. Her makeup makes her face look 'hard' there. Maybe it's the camera angle.

That black dress does look fab on Meghan, from what we can see of it.

(How can the fashionistas confidently identify a dress from such a limited view though? Particularly one from a small brand? I always wonder if there are briefings being sent out behind the scenes!)

I think there is information given out.

Are Netflix filming all these occasions re Meghan and Harry.

I think so, because they released information that there would be a cookery show, then one about polo.

Okay. She's no Martha Stewart though.

I much prefer the black dress to the white day time monstrosity. Meghan looks elegant and classy in pared down clothes that fit properly. The white thing was wearing her and not the other way round

True, Meghan’s never done time behind bars.

Here's CPV presenting medals to dairy famer of the year! A worthy event. I'm not sure about the dress, I quite like the pattern in a way, but I think that the print is too large and a bit dominant.
Lovely colour, though.

Yes that floral print is not great.

CPV's hair always bothers me. It's so incredibly unflattering the way she wears it. Facially she's very like her sister, but because Madeleine always wears hers in much looser styles, she looks a lot better.

I agree, she wears such varied clothes and I get a sense that she enjoys being a bit "out there" with some of her choices (like those fluorescent ball gowns!), so it seems a bit mis-matched that her hair is always scraped back into the same bun all the time. I'd love to see her with it down.
