I like the tailoring of Catherine's suit (& I'm quite partial to a pussy bow myself).

Not keen on the colour though, I'm not a fan of the spectrum of beige myself. Jewel or real autumn colours would have been much better IMO.

Leti in a very nice red trouser suit, lovely colour, well cut. I know that the pussy bow blouse has some fans on here, but I'm not keen, nor on the floral handbag. Good hair and makeup as per, though

Letizia does wear suits well.

Max I think we've seen this outfit before. But I don't remember the pearl earrings, they're huge.

I don't think that's a very flattering coat, it could do with a wide leather belt to structure it more, I think.

I'm not a fan of the pussy bow, it's a hard look to get right and suits very few IMO. Leti and Catherine wear them well, they'd be a disaster on me with my short neck and big bust.

Max's coat is a bit too fussy for me, I like the trim on the wrists but the hem and the (presumably) fake pockets are too much. I like the fabric though.

I love the tweed style pattern. Is it a coat or more of a coat dress 🤔. What I don’t think works about it is the fringing. It might have looked better edged in the same style as the placket. Also agree with @Maireasthat the belt isn’t right. It almost looks
like she has bent a bit of copper heating pipe round her waist

Well now, there's a been a heist of jewels from the Louvre earlier today. Bit of a hodge job by the sounds of things......the one we planned for a while back would have gone off perfectly!

They dropped a crown apparently. Amazing cheeky heist though

frugalkitty · 19/10/2025 14:22

I know....we wouldn't have dropped anything. Amateurs.

DH and DC's can vouch for me - I was very much not in France at that time.

MrsLeonFarrell · 19/10/2025 16:32

I was washing my hair

Maireas · 19/10/2025 16:37

I was eating a giant baguette. Nowhere near Paris

I was/am in France 🫢. But Lille, phew!

smilesy · 19/10/2025 16:46

I used to live very near to Paris and was familiar with the Louvre, but that was a very long time ago 😬

RomainingCalm · 19/10/2025 16:51

Moi? Absolutement not! 👑

I like the emerald tiara on the picture though if it ever makes its way onto eBay…

Maireas · 19/10/2025 17:03

On another note, should I pair emerald or diamond earrings with Empress Eugenie's Pearl Tiara?

I actually did eat a giant baguette today. A bread one, not diamond

Didn't someone say some of the pieces were on loan from private owners for the exhibition ❓

We would have been wearing them, so no chance of dropping them. 😂

If it isn’t taken on the spreadsheet of splendour I would be wearing the Sapphire Tiara and Parure.💎

How awful - why are people so greedy.
