The aquamarines are great, and I also love Max's day dress - that style really suits her. I'd love to see Sophie (DoE) in that dress, as I think it would really suit her too.

Aquamarines are my favourite gem. I have a pendant and three rings. Also if I see a garment in those hues I'm a goner lovely for the summer.

I agree, much better than the tired floral prints Sophie usually favours.

There's a royal(ish) wedding next weekend when "Princess" Theodora of Greece gets married. I imagine we might see a few Euro royals there, given the family connections.

Block colours do work better camera wise as the late queen knew very well.

MotherofPearl · 20/09/2024 20:36

I absolutely love Leti's red shoes and bag with her denim dress. I see she's trying a low heel, so maybe her feet are recovering.

Mathilde at a gala event looking a bit too bridal imo.

Goodness, Mathilde does look bridal!
I really love that look on Leti, just the right amount of casual chic. I like the red accessories.

@MotherofPearl I looked at the photos before reading your comments and was going to write that, if I was getting married at my mature age, Mathilde's outfit would be perfect. She even has flowers!

KillingMeDeftIy · 20/09/2024 21:21

Mathilde looks like a Manhatten socialite from the 1970s at her third wedding. She really does dress much older than her age!

that's a great description.

I love Leti's outfit and her shoes. I think she has really got into her groove with the flats/low heeled shoes and I love it. I hope she won't go back to the stilettos and I hope some of the other royals will copy it. It pained me to see the UK royal women (other than Anne) on those stilettos all the way through the funeral for Q Elizabeth.

Camilla at the Braemar Literary Festival and Zara at a horse trials. Are those huge Fortnum and Mason hampers in the background?

Mary takes up the reins as Queen as Fred overseas.

Anne bumps into Lady Louise , dressed in the uniform of the St Andrews military I wanna say regiment?

I see Princess Josephine’s expressions very clearly in that picture of Mary

justasking111 · 22/09/2024 00:11

Tim Lawrence trousers, golfing?

Choux · 22/09/2024 00:33

Where is Fred? Madrid?

Maireas · 22/09/2024 07:41

Nice moment when Anne bumps into Lady Lou! Sir Tim is wearing Trews.

😂

KillingMeDeftIy · 22/09/2024 16:01

I have to say our favourite birthday girl comes across as a more capable pair of hands than Fred.

Maireas · 22/09/2024 16:05

She's definitely embracing the role of Queen, and doing it well!

Yes I think Margrethe is very relieved that Fred picked a woman who is up to the task.

Poor Margrethe has damaged a vertebrae in her neck and also fractured her hand in her fall the other day. She will have to wear a neck brace for some weeks.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 22/09/2024 16:11

(or did she pick him... 🤔😉 in any case I think it worked out well for the Monarchy!)

Maireas · 22/09/2024 16:18

No! Poor Daisy, that's rough.

Oh Daisy that's bad. Hopefully she'll heal well.
