Royal Style 👑 Evenings drawing in, more bling?

[Maireas]

Evening all! Next thread ready...

I agree about the shoes; I don't like them one bit.

Being American, I was spared school uniform, but my parents insisted that I join the brownies. After one year, they agreed that scouting was not for me. I have not worn anything that color brown since.

I really like Catherine's high ponytail. As a previous poster suggested, there's probably some back coming to keep the crown from being too flat. It's also possible to do some light crimping at the roots in the underneath layers to give that little bit of height.

Meanwhile Caroline of Hanover attends the Nursing Graduation.

Yes the blouse and trousers themselves are quite nice - even the colour. It is the shoes and the one-colour thing I don't like.

Interesting outfit, I like a skirt and shirt combo, but I'm not sure about the colours. I like that Caroline is ageing gracefully. Looking forward to Alexandra's wedding.

I love that skirt and blouse combo on Caroline.

Eek! So many posts....

I like grey, but I'm not keen on Kate's three shades of grey look and that grey pussy bow was vile. Looking like an entire autumn's worth of very expensive wet weeks it's no wonder she was grinning manically in an attempt to redress the balance.

Daytime and evening pictures of the Swedish royals for the opening of Parliament and then a concert (I think). They all look great, I particularly like Sofia’s burgundy dress.

I don't like Sofia's outfits, particularly the double breasted jacket which seems a bit out of proportion. CPV looks gorgeous in both pictures, I really like her top and skirt in the first one, and her evening looks. Madeline as well.

Sofia's black and white outfit looks too much like 80s cosplay. I bet Kate has her eye on it now! I do like her brown evening dress and I'm not usually a fan of brown.

Just saw another photo of Kate from today and I quite like her burgundy accessories. The grey looks a darker shade in the photo too, which looks better. Bit warm for for that coat today though.

CPV's evening gown is gorgeous! I'm having that to go alongside that red one of Letizia's from a few weeks back...

Sofia’s heels are sooo high. She also has a big bow at the back of her hair which seems a bit 80s Fergie-esque. I feel I outgrew bows at about 25.

Madeleine also has a large white drape-y bow on the back of her outfit. I couldn’t find a photo but here is a screenshot from a video. I think Victoria has the best daytime look.

Sophie is attending the ICAN Forum as champion of Women, Peace & Security in Hague, Netherlands this week. She is making those Penelope Chilvers pumps work hard and yet the outfits all look very different.

Last week Sophie attended the OSCAR Foundation Ball at the Nobu Hotel in London. I have no idea what the event was for but the outfit seems very casual given there are dinner jackets and bow ties and sequins on other attendees. Sophie’s dress and wedges seem more like evening holiday attire. I love the colour of the dress but paisley immediately make me think of pyjamas so I wouldn’t wear this dress on holiday or to a ball.

I found a photo of the back of Madeleine’s top.

Sophie looks good in the green and blue dresses, not so convinced by the tan blazer. And the paisley is far too casual for a black tie event. It's like she spilled something on her original gown and popped into Boden on the way!

I think Sophie’s best outfit is the blue dress with the pink flowers. That would have been better for the black tie event if she had forgotten her ball
gown!

Rania looking sensational in red at a family wedding. I think the bride is Abdullah's niece?

Rania looks gorgeous, I love that dress. Beautiful colour and some drama in the design. Lovely.

I wonder if Sophie's Veronica Beard dress looked better in person? It might be silk. I liked the green dress and her cream pleated skirt..

No, I don't think that works... for either woman!

I loved Caroline’s shoes.
i find that website NMR difficult to see on my phone - where I have the Mumsnet app, as the ads are so intrusive so I take screenshots and then can see the fashion.
In some of the photos Princess Caroline’s hair appears blonde and in others it looks like she has embraced the grey.
I’m not keen on CPV’s dress.
Sofia’s looks nice and I like the lace at the bottom of Madeleine’s dress.

I think Princess Caroline has embraced the grey, but it looks like there's some light brown in it. Looking again at her outfit, I actually like the colours.
NMR isn't a problem for me on the app, so I don't know what's happening!

Oh dear God !!!
Sofia’s heels !
Eek how can she walk in them !!!
I love a bow @Choux
I don’t like CPV’s daytime outfit.

The Swedish day wear really seems to be having an 80s moment.
