Daisy is slowly getting better - she is well enough to attend an event this evening, her first official assignment since the fall, presenting an award at Christiansborg Palace. No photos yet.

Ah that's good I'm strangely fond of Daisy, she's an interesting woman.

AllTangledUpInTinselAndTiaras · 05/11/2024 18:07

Daisy in blue.

I don't know who the lady on the right is but I imagine Daisy is coveting her colourful ensemble!

That's Margrethe Vestager with Daisy, a very formidable EU commissioner and Danish politician.

Thank you. Will have to Google her. Maybe she wore it knowing Daisy likes some a bit different.

Oh the Danish politician is a very smart dresser.

She also knits every day.

Mary looks nice.
Fergie is still on her Australian book tour.

What's the book she's shilling? Another bodice-ripper?

Papergirl1968 · 05/11/2024 21:18

A children’s book apparently but she’s signed a 22-book deal with an Australian publisher and the next one will be about food art, whatever that is - paintings of food or how to make food look good, who knows?!
From kids books to bodice rippers and everything in between…

DuchessOfPort · 05/11/2024 21:32

Love Fergie. I must buy her bodice ripper - she wrote it with a regular mills and boom author who sells well usually so it will be readable if not prize winning literature.

She does try to earn and raise money and awareness. She can’t afford to lie on a chaise longue eating bon bons and after two kinds of cancer she is certainly ploughing on with beaming at cameras.

Eugenie in yellow at an art exhibition in Doha. The dress is DVF, not sure it's really doing her any favours but I was struck by how much Eugenie looks like a young Fergie in the photo.

Due to lack of tiara action, I’ve resorted to browsing the jewellery auction that Sotheby’s is having www.sothebys.com/en/buy/auction/2024/royal-noble-jewels/diamond-brooch-circa-1860 www.sothebys.com/en/buy/auction/2024/royal-noble-jewels/diamond-brooch-circa-1860]]
there are 2 tiara’s for sale. Both quite nice. But whoever models for sothebys needs a lesson in tiara wearing from Camilla. They are just plonked on the poor girls head!

I like the second tiara, the smaller one.
Eugenie’s dress looks like it came from the sale rail at Asda. Nothing wrong with Asda clothes, I wear them myself. But I wouldn’t wear that.

Maireas · 05/11/2024 22:18

It looks like they've just photoshopped those tiaras onto the model's head. They don't look right.
I think maybe Eugenie should do more rewears, she has some nice looks, but that dress isn't great.

AllTangledUpInTinselAndTiaras · 05/11/2024 22:39

Yes it's Photoshop for sure.

You'd think they'd make more of an effort!

KillingMeDeftIy · 05/11/2024 23:22

Those Yorks really do get around! Neither the shape nor the colour of that dress work on Eugenie, unfortunately.

Both her bra and the bodice are too droopy. That yellow is a difficult colour to wear but love her understated makeup and cheerful grin.

Yes. It makes them look like something from Claire’s Accessories 😆

Fred and Mary last night at the 20 year anniversary of their annual Crown Prince Couple's Prize award, now renamed of course but I can't think of a suitable translation and don't know yet what the official title is in English. Love the yellow bag and shoes; a pop of colour done very successfully!

Mary looks very glam there, Fred less so.

AllTangledUpInTinselAndTiaras · 06/11/2024 09:00

I don't think he's very comfortable in dressy clothes unless he's wearing military gear, being much more inclined toward quite casual and sporty.

Mary is in her element.

I came here to post this! Stylish and bright are hard to do well and she has nailed it. Plus the coordinating ring 😍 ring visible in a picture here (need to zoom in)

Queen Mary is next level in silky fitted flares and vibrant heels

King Frederik's wife looked incredible in a leg-split look

Oh Lord that ring!! 😍😍 I want that please.

Princess Madeleine and Chris will both attend the Nobel Prize Banquet on 10/12 and will also attend the King's Nobel Dinner the next day.

justasking111 · 06/11/2024 13:39

Is it a citrine ring?
