Royal Style: summer's end, but not for style ❤️

[Maireas]

The end of summer lies ahead, but we're hoping for more bling!

More fashion the merrier here.

I don't think Louise is interested in fashion and she isn't in the public eye really so unless she absolutely nailed an outfit I wouldn't comment on what she wore (I'm getting to the age when I am very tempted to tell young women who are stylish how great look - young women I don't know!). I think Anne (who was in the public eye and a working royal) had some fab outfits as a young woman - the white dress she re-wore recently was gorgeous on her the first time.

I love the shoes and jacket but I don't think the blue jeans go at all. She either needed a cream or a much darker wash imo. The mid-blue jars with the brown and looks too casual for the other pieces she's wearing. I think the jeans would have been fine with a pair of trainers.

No strong feelings on H&M here either but M’s outfits seem to be either really wow or miss the mark so hopefully plenty to discuss.

Which outfit is this?

I just meant generally not a particular outfit

I wonder will we see much of them out and about. I'm sure they will be at all the red carpet dos.
It makes sense to me that Harry will want his children to have a similar education and "old boys" network (old girls if that's a thing fir Lili)
There is much drama on Active threads already 🤣

I bought leopard print mary janes in the spring so I'm all for Mary's outfit.

Agree Louise just wears what she likes. She reminds me of girls at school who were very academic and horsey.

Oh sorry, misunderstood.

This post aged well in the past 24 hours 😁

I look forward to Meghan’s style choices though, always worthy of discussion !

I agree, It’s almost like she’s picked up the wrong pair of jeans to put on. Odd 🤔

Apologies for this not being 100% fashion-related, but I've just spotted this item on BBC news. Another skeleton emerging from the Belgian RF wardrobes...! 😬

I wonder if the new prince will be as flamboyant as Delphine?

Isn’t Prince Laurent’s wife Claire British ?

I wonder (once H&M move back and we are discussing her outfits again) how long it will be before new posters pop on here to tell us off? Hasn't happened in a while.

Queen Silvia donned her trainers to clamber all over one of Sweden's water-scooping aircraft! It's a very skilled, specialist job - and quite dangerous, at least on firefighting flights- piloting those and she definitely scoops the prize for best royal engagement of the summer - it would be so interesting to get to talk to the pilots about their work.

Credit to Silvia - that wing looks slippery! I bet it was interesting, though.

Oh interesting, though unlike Delphine he was born before Laurent was married so maybe it's not as awkward. And I doubt he'll provide as much to look at from a style POV!

@deeahgwitch she is, but I think she moved to Belgium as a toddler.

I thought that too @frugalkitty- I’m here for the fashion, the jewels and the good company - not to be told off for commenting on someone’s hair!

I’m hoping for some slightly different but inspiring Autumn/Winter choices from Meghan.

Instagram Meghan's Fashion page. I had a look today. She has worn some lovely outfits and I've always thought her to be the shoe 👠 queen in the family.

I would love to have Meghan's shoe collection!

Wow, can you image Swedish equivalent of the Men in Grey Suits doing the risk assessment for Queen Silvia clambering over the wing of an aeroplane!? She's certainly a good sport! I like her suit: smart, yet looks soft and stretchy enough to enable ladder-climbing and wing-walking.

I love the colour of Sylvia’s suit. She looks a bit chilly in one of the photos. I have to admit I did a bit of a double take at a pilot with a man bun. No reason to really, it was just a bit 😮😆😆

Quite a fun article on school run style!

I like all of Meghan's looks here, especially the lighter jeans with the short bouclé jacket.
Maybe these choices of Diana weren't her best...

I hated Diana’s hairstyle as portrayed in that photograph in Vogue. It was so “mumsy”
Who was her haidresser at the time ?
I know she had a few.
Luckily she changed her hairstyle and in those photos of her by Patrick Demarchelier she looked fabulous.

I know it was Sam McKnight at one point though not sure when. She was only about 25 in that photo but looked so much older because of the styling!
