Royal Style and Beauty - Trooping on, through summer and beyond!

[Maireas]

Although the summer so far has been disappointing!
More style and beauty sharing and discussion, thank you to everyone who makes these threads so enjoyable! 🤩

Yes I don’t see that til after the procession 😆

That's nice to see - I sometimes feel a bit sad when I see the Euro royals getting together, as ours always seem a bit left out!

I think her dress today is almost perfection but the huge puff sleeves make it too theatrical for me. And it's a no from me on the shower puff too! Sorry Mrs Zara Tyndall. (But your name tag is en pointe for 2024!)

Perhaps the kids were throwing things out the bathroom window this morning to see if they could hit mum's hat.

Camilla is wearing the Ladies of India brooch - it's a carved emerald that Queen Mary wore to the Delhi Durbar. Gorgeous!

It's stunning! That hat is something else.

Mistake in my last post... This carved emerald was presented to Queen Mary at the Delhi Durbar in 1911 by "The Ladies of India". Garrards then set it for her as a brooch, in a gold & silver setting, with 30 brilliant-cut diamonds framing the hexagon shaped emerald, then four larger brilliants at the top, bottom & sides of the jewel. It is carved with a rose on the front & a rose bush on the back. It was bequeathed to HLMTQ in 1953.

Camilla looks beautiful today - her dress is Dior I see. That emerald brooch is incredible!

Camilla looks fantastic today - gorgeous dress, hat and brooch.

I never like Zara's outfits but I loved the one from the first day and the one from today - I've never seen her look better.

Sarah Chatto has wonderful style.

If I were Camilla, I’d wear white or cream to every single occasion and make it my trademark look. She suits it so well.

Lots of events in Spain this week celebrating 10 years of Felipe's reign. It's fast rivalling CPM's 50th!

I love Leti's silky skirt here, and both Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia look elegant imo. I especially like Leonor's outfit - it's unusual. She looks so much like her mother.

I LOVE seeing Camilla in a spectacular hat because she can totally carry it off - she looked amazing today! I quite liked Sophie's hat but her dress was another miss for me, too long (again). Lady Sarah and Zara looking fab too.

The Spencer twins, Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza looking great with their coordinated outfits.
Wonder if they were invited to join the party in the Royal box.

Ten points for choosing comfort over fashion with their rope wedges.

Lovely pictures of the Spanish family, they all look amazing - but Sofia needs to practise looking not quite so much like a bored teenager

The Spencer girls look fabulous. I particularly like the navy outfit.
Love Cam's emerald brooch - wow!
Leti and family all look effortlessly stylish.

Camilla looks fantastic there, that’s the best I’ve seen her look. I love the hat- but the whopper emerald is the best bit. 🙂

Leonor is so pretty these days.

I kind of like Sofia's bored teenager look :)

Poor Sofia, maybe the camera just captured a fleeting moment! Leonor really
looks a lot like Leti these days. Both girls are very stylish, Sofia was wearing a jumpsuit the other day that I’d happily wear myself!

The Spanish royal house now has their own Instagram account.

Yes I was wondering why there were no photos of them greeting William. He is their cousin.

If the Spencer ladies were there today they won’t have seen William as he was in Germany for the football.

Oh! What were the photos of William and Zara greeting each other then? Also the one with him and Carole Middleton? Were they from yesterday?

Yes. Or the day before.
There are pictures of him greeting Frederick and Josephine of Denmark.

William was there on Wednesday as the King was not in attendance, plus there were 2 races named after him (well technically named after his titles) - The Prince of Wales Stakes and the Duke of Cambridge Stakes - and its traditional for the title holder to present the trophies, if they’re able to.
