I like Kate's outfit today - am sure she has worn that hat at Wimbledon before.

Her bag yesterday was very nice - I have the larger size in navy and very nearly sold it recently but will get it out again.

Sophie is currently visiting Bosnia and Herzegovina. She’s been there for 3 days and I hadn’t even realised. She is a bit like Anne in that she slogs away doing lots of worthy visits but doesn’t get the press coverage unfortunately. Anyway, not keen on any of her outfits. The one with the headscarf is quite nice. It was for a ceremony to honor victims of the Srebrenica genocide.

apologies the pics are rubbish, they are in a weird format so wouldnt upload so I had to do screenshots

You did very well all the media have fallen short covering this trip

Same hat?

When our Primark opened I popped in. Hanging on the wall was a big straw hat. Well my old one was battered so indulged in a new one. I love a straw hat in the sunshine. Joan Collins has gazillions.

The press just don’t seem interested in Sophie or Edward. I bet they like that better than the focus on Kate and Meghan.

Come on Alcaraz!

I agree. On a style point, Sophie looks lovely in that blue. I'll see if we can get a better image.

DH has just asked if William and George are going to run to the nearest pub to catch the kick off of the footie.

Thanks, @Chesticles .
You're right, Sophie's work does go under the radar. Shame.

She is an excellent ambassador for the U.K. something very stateswoman-like about her. There’s a substance and a purpose to her advocacy that the others could learn from tbh.

@SweetBaklava 😂at least it's a well cut jacket, even if we're not all fans of the double breasted look!
Perhaps that style is coming back....

True 😄

Hi, friends 👐
Can't believe how fast the last thread filled up!
Really like Helen Mirren's green dress (from the previous thread.)

justasking111 · 13/07/2025 19:58

Rhianna is apparently a trend setter. She's wearing cameo jewellery, choker, rings etc. Remember those?

I would agree, she's very professional. The issue of violence against women, and as a weapon of war, is not an easy one to engage with. She does well.

You're on trend then.

I'll need to tell my daughter, she'll be well impressed!

I liked the thickness of Kate’s necklace. I wonder if it was really expensive?

Maireas · 13/07/2025 20:20

It's unusual for her to wear chunky jewellery.

OP posts:
justasking111 · 13/07/2025 20:31

Never a fan of chunky necklaces even first time round.

Papergirl1968 · 13/07/2025 21:18

Some more pics of Sophie from this week.
Very poor coverage in the media, especially when they are such important causes she is highlighting.
