I can imagine, @justasking111
I was an avid fake tanner back in the day (the day being the '90's!) This was when you just smelled like digestive biscuits and it went everywhere 🥴🫣
Embracing one's own natural colour (and lashes, brows and lips!) is very freeing!

Before marriage, Kate was a very keen fan of the fake tan. I don't know if she just stopped or cut it down, but in pre-2011 photos she often looks very orange.

I still fake tan my legs.
DH just 🙄

I got a sheet thingie like a no zip sleeping bag you get in to, in Penneys which prevents transfer on to the bed sheet and duvet

Nice to see Kate meeting a young cancer patient.

Charlotte at the Chanel show.

She appears to be wearing her pyjamas at one point. Blush

I like the sequin dress a lot, though it could have done without that weird white panel at the hem.

Meanwhile Max visited a space museum and had an outfit change for another engagement.

I'm not keen on that navy hat of Max's.

The grey outfit looks a little 1940s cosplay, especially with her hair styled like that.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 02/10/2024 20:19

I quite like the hat! But definitely not with that cape...

Heh I actually would've happily worn that pyjama-looking set as a young woman. And the shoes. 🙂

Nice to see Catherine out and about.

Papergirl1968 · 02/10/2024 20:24

The navy outfit look a little Darth Vader-ish, I think.

Maireas · 02/10/2024 20:27

Lovely picture of Catherine. Uh, oh! William is going with the beard, isn't he?

Yeah I love capes but I liked the one she wore the other day much better. I don't think it's the same one but it might be; in any case the styling was much nicer. Cape and floppy hat together always makes me think of Zorro.

I love the grey 'ensemble' but I love the 40's aesthetic.

She's been on the spray tan too or maybe that's a bad photo.

Her legs look at lot less orange - I have a vision of Wax rubbing her down with sand paper last night.

Yes he is and Im a bit😍

KillingMeDeftIy · 02/10/2024 21:38

It still just looks like he forgot to shave. He needs to fully commit to the beard!

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 02/10/2024 21:47

Yes just a bit longer and it'll be perfect! I do like a beard, and I think William looks good when he wears one.

chesterelly1 · 02/10/2024 23:27

Max's navy hat is giving me Paddington vibes and I'm. It sure about the grey.. But overall I love that she seems to have fun with fashion and carries things off with a panache that no one else does. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when she's selecting new outfits.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 03/10/2024 10:58

Yes @chesterelly1 I love that about her too! There's really very little that she can't pull off because she comes across so vibrant and does everything with panache! To me that's what fashion is really about. I also absolutely love her enthusiasm for digging in the Royal Vault and bringing out alllll the stupendous jewellery without any hint of self-consciousness.

Lol - I was thinking the same. Please tell me that was for the Space Museum. Embracing her inner-Kate literal dressing moment!

Mary is in Brazil atm. Seen here at an evening event.

I like the skirt and I like the top but I don’t think they really go together. Love the chandelier earrings and her hair looks amazing

I suspect the skirt is one of those literal nods

Eaumyword · 03/10/2024 14:29

I agree, @smilesy - I like the top and the skirt but not together.
