For goodness sake! She's 10?!

Lots of kids get their hair dyed bright colours in the school holidays @Facade1983 so you might be in for an even bigger surprise!

Anyway, I cant remember where Ive just read this ( could be on here) that Kate wears four rings now on her wedding finger..does anyone know what they are? I can work out wedding and engagement ring obviously, the new eternity ring we saw recently..but whats the other one?

She has a very slim diamond eternity ring as well, IIRC.

Thanks that's fascinating. As an amateur dressmaker I understand a bit of it but the lapel issues were a mystery to me.

My husband very broad shouldered used to have a small waist. Chest 40" waist 28". I spent a lot of time outside changing rooms while he tried jackets on, it was a mission. In those days mens trousers came in one length so I used to get out my pins, pinking shears, needle and cotton make him put them on, measure, cut and stitch. Nowadays thankfully trousers come in different lengths.

The concertina flaps at the ankles really annoy me saw loads of it at the G8 SUMMIT.

Now Macron last week was perfectly tailored, left Charles and William standing in his perfect three piece suit. I do like a good waistcoat.

I actually didn't mind William's double breasted jacket. But Felipe looks just <chef's kiss>

I took twin granddaughters 8 to the hair salon. I'd bought hair accessories so they both had a wash, blow dry curly half up do. When it came to the nail varnish, every nail had to be a different colour 🤣.

A little look at it!

I think she wears the diamond and sapphire band in place of her official engagement ring most of the time, which makes good sense.

I bought mine some coloured glitter spray for Christmas parties. Looks amazing but washed out.

@TwerkingRoyalNotWorkingRoyal Ooh! Great detective work - thanks. Now off to show DH…as its our wedding anniversary today!

Ohhh maybe you'll get a beautiful new band out of it! Show us if you do (please). ☺️

Stacking rings, bracelets are a thing at the moment. More practical for every day wear

They didn't look like acrylics. Just a bit of pale pink varnish, which is fine.

Congratulations! I hope you get something nice 😊

Yes, congratulations! 🎉

Agree. It’s entirely possible she went to, say, a friends birthday party where they were having their nails done. Is she supposed to decline because she is third in line to the throne or is she allowed to have fun like other girls her age 🤔

They are so ugly espadrilles would have looked much better

When my dds were about 10 they occasionally went to birthday parties where teenagers were employed to do manicures on the kids!
I'm trying to work out the family tree...wasnt felipes mammy related to the late Duke of Edinburgh ? And Charles and Diana used to holiday with the Spanish royals.

Aaah! Espadrilles are very divisive on here! I personally like them, but others do not!
Leti has some lovely pairs.

Yes, she's a Schleswig Holstein Sonderberg Glucksberg, like Philip. Cousins I'm guessing?

Gosh, when will she be allowed to get her ears pierced then?

Does it matter when?

I recommend people don't Google the relationship between Spanish and UK Royal families if you're busy!

😂

Talk about damned if you do and damned if you don't. George is in a suit (as per the rules for the event they are at) and its child cruelty and they should let the kids be 'normal' kids.
Charlotte wears a bit of nail varnish (like 'normal' kids) and it shouldn't be allowed.

I seem to recall at about that age my nieces had kid safe peel off nail varnish that would go on for an event or because they were playing beauticians then it easily lifted off. I'm sure she hasn't had anything that requires damaging removal.
