Maybe Felipe frog-marched Albert to the tailor
before he would agree to a photo with him 😂😂

😂 who could blame him! 😂

Hopefully there will be some sort of medal for the tailor - Services to Spain

I like Charlene's pale blue summer dress - not sure about Letizia's choice of silver shoes for a summer, daytime event

Silver sandals in summer seems fine to me! And that's the smartest Albert has looked in years.

Yay, found you! Thanks for the new thread, @Maireas

Albert still needs a couple of inches chopping off the bottom of his trousers and adding to his jacket waistline imho.

I love Mary's outfits on the boat, it took me longer than it should to spot that she'd mixed and matched the red wrap-over top and a white top with white trousers and the long wafty skirt. A capsule wardrobe I could definitely get on board with (boat pun not intended 😆)

Looking forward to some trooping the colour fashion this weekend!

Edit: my quoting went a bit awry there, I was commenting on the photo but it actually makes more sense in context of Killing's comment about Albert smartening himself up for the visit:

@FGSWhatNow It’s not Trooping the Colour this weekend. It’s next weekend I think

Lots of events in June! The Phillips Family are very well blended. I hope they have a sunny day for the wedding.
Im getting a little bored of Kates crossed over dresses.

Ooops you're right, I was getting ahead of myself!

Catching up - thank you for all the lovely pictures.

  • I think Catherine has been watching the new series of "Rivals" and thinking "yep - I could do '80s" (And - lovely to see the vintage patterns, but I wonder if the conspicuous white collar and other highlights does make it more 80s styling than 30s?)
  • Felipe has staged a tailoring intervention with Albert
  • Very diplomatic that Charlene was wearing little kitten heels like Letzi now does with her painful feet (I sympathise)

I’m not generally a fan of Kate’s clothes and I think she desperately needs a stylist, but I thought she looked nice in the blue dress today.

In royal-adjacent news, India Hicks has announced the death of her mother Lady Pamela at 97. What a life she had!

I'll have to relook at her life.

She did indeed. A front seat at many important events.
