Actually, I love Mary's outfit there - I'd totally wear that, not to the same effect, alas 🤷
Marie's dress is a little fussy looking, but I quite like the overall look.

Jakers it's cold in the Faroe Islands. I'd have my damart dressing gown on over that outfit 🥶

It’s a shame she didn’t pop a DryRobe over the top - we could have had an excuse for a whole new debate! 😂😂😂

in other news… Charlene and family out again and wearing a DVF maxi dress which I really like - she’s worn a few in this style recently and the colour’s a bit different (although after all the brown comments I’m now wondering if there’s maybe a hint of 70s lounge carpet!?!?)

Lovely pics, thanks, @justasking111 .
Mmm, 70s lounge carpet, you say @RomainingCalm ?! If anyone can carry it off, Charlene can. I'm really glad to see her so well and happy of late, long may it continue.
Albert is rocking that bright suit.

I like both summery dresses on Charlene and Gabriella. Am I imagining things or does Albert’s suit fit a bit better this time 🤔

WorkingRoyalNotTwerkingRoyal · 15/06/2025 18:59

Albert looks pretty well put together for once!! 😯

Maireas · 15/06/2025 19:00

Did he contact Felipe's tailor, as we advised?

Charlene and Melania together would be fabulous. They are so tall and carry themselves so well. I think they might have a lot to talk about.

I think he might have! Perhaps Charlene is reading along and has finally given him a proper nudge...

I am also glad to see Charlene looking happy and well. I like the 70s lounge carpet dress and would wear it.

I know I'm late to this but I absolutely loved Charlotte's dress and her hair -the whole look was, to me, really suitable and pretty for a formal event for a 10 year old. Didn't like Catherine's outfit particularly but she always looks well.

MotherofPearl · 15/06/2025 19:38

Breezing into the new thread very belatedly. Lots to catch up on I see!

Like @MaireasI'm not a fan of brown either (though I do like both grey and burgundy!). My school uniform was dark green and even that didn’t put me off!

Mine was! I still love dark green 💚

Oh love Char's dress.
I hope she and Albert have come to an arrangement she is happy to live with. She does seem to be in a good place recently

Eaumyword · 15/06/2025 21:12

Char looks good - love a summer maxi dress! Albert looks like her security detail in his suit and dark shades!😆

StartupRepair · 15/06/2025 21:35

I had 12 years of a dark brown school uniform. Many decades later I still avoid the colour.
It always surprises me to look at the Monaco twins and realise they are Grace Kelly's grandchildren. Seems like so many generations ago.

Maybe she has found a companion 😍 😉

Going back to the 80s. I watched And Just Like That last night. I do like the clothes. Well up pops SJP in an outfit I wore in the early 80s. Same colour, same big shoulder pads.

Made me smile nostalgically. I've taken a screenshot

Would we say Mary's outfit is a bit country?
A suitable look for the visit, I think. Are they standing in front of a giant orange dinosaur, or is it some Faroese traditional creature?

Could it be a Faroese tartan? I think that tartans have been woven on the Faroe islands historically.

There is a lot of overlap between Scotland and the Norse/Nordic countries historically - for example the Shetland Islands only became became Scottish because of a dowry dispute between the Scottish and Norwegian monarchies in the (I think) 1400s

WorkingRoyalNotTwerkingRoyal · 15/06/2025 22:06

Oh yes that could very well be @Lunde! I should really have thought of that.

WorkingRoyalNotTwerkingRoyal · 15/06/2025 22:34

Looked it up; it's Ralph Lauren.

I hope so!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 16/06/2025 01:59

Or maybe they have sorted things out between them & do really like/love each other?
Or maybe it was all down to Albert's clothes & looking like an old man?
Though everytime I see recent photos of Charlene, I now think she looks like the boss in her relationship with him.

WorkingRoyalNotTwerkingRoyal · 16/06/2025 09:40

She was so unwell for so long, poor thing.

WorkingRoyalNotTwerkingRoyal · 16/06/2025 09:40

She was so unwell for so long, poor thing.

I know, she really had a tough time and was away from her children. I'm just glad to see her looking so well and back to herself, and the family looking happy together.
