Royal Style 👑 Evenings drawing in, more bling?

[Maireas]

Evening all! Next thread ready...

Love the colour on Charlene… but double breasted innit?

I love the colour and I would call it periwinkle too. Maybe Char wore those shoes because she knew that she and Albert would be required to put on the weird wobble like overshoes at some point 😆. At least that is probably why she wore flats

Charlene doesn't seem as wedded to the ultra-high heel as other royal women. I've noticed she usually favours a mid-heel. Perhaps she finds them more comfortable!

Two more recent suits of Charlene’s. Neither is as nice as the blue one but I LOVE her glasses!

Speaking of high heels Mary wore super high leopard print heels to a concert recently. She also wore a quite formal ensemble to the opening of a new outdoor bathing area in Copenhagen. The outfit is most notable for her wearing ankle boots with it. Am not sure if I like them or not with that length of skirt…

And now a photo you would never guess was from a royal engagement. Victoria did an outdoor event which was at a museum and involved some walking. Am not sure about her outfit but it’s practical and surely someone could have weeded the path before the Crown Princess of Sweden visited?

The glasses are lovely, they really suit her. The suits are fine, but no more than that. Higher heels this time.

I like both of Mary’s outfits there and particularly like the hint of leopard but the height of those heels is giving me the hee-bee geebies, particularly when she is standing on steps

The height of those heels also gives me the heebie jeebies - not sure I could take a step. But otherwise I love the skirt and top - lovely colours and pleats.

Oh my good God, those leopardskin heels !!!
They don’t even make the lovely ankles look nice 🙄

And cobble stones too! I guess she's used to high heels and maybe the type of shoes she can afford are more stable and comfortable than cheaper high heels. But no way I'd wear such vertiginous shoes on cobble stones, especially with a ton of photographers there to record my every move. They are gorgeous shoes though.

I don't mind a bit of leopard print so I quite like Mary's shoes! It's a night out at a concert, so she would've been sitting down most of the time, plus it's not like she's got to walk home!

Not so keen on the ankle boots - a higher boot might've been better with that outfit.

Gianvito Rossi shoes - the leopard print version of Kate's shoes. A favourite with royal ladies it would seem. I like her outfit.

Mathilde and Philippe are visiting Kazakhstan, Mathilde in a couple of striking red outfits. I rather like the evening outfit, the coat/jacket looks interesting, and different for her.

I want Mary's outfit to wear to a thing. I have ankle boots so I don't need hers. All the European crowned heads are busy just now.

All the stops were pulled out for the couple, with a menu including sturgeon, veal, and mouse

Appetising! 😆

I suppose you'd prefer something small after all that 😉

I love Mathilde's red evening coat - gorgeous. And I like her hair in that photo too.

That coat is beautiful

I found myself googling opera coats recently.

Charlene has very wide feet with narrow ankles that's difficult to dress with the rest of her oufits. I love her style but ,awful of me, somehow my eyes always go to her feet.

I'm sure she knows it and there is not much she can do about.

In all honesty, I've never noticed her feet. Occasionally I comment on her shoes but wouldn't have guessed she had a problem. If she does, she hides it well.
I know that Letizia has had to stop wearing high heels because of her feet problems.

I don't think it's a problem for Charlene like Morton's neuroma for Letizia or Mary's bunnions. Charlene has big feet, very wide and asthetically her shoes don't look right when there isn't much she can do about it.

Ok, to be honest I've not noticed it, her shoes always seem to look fine.
