I actually love her bag

And all the valets need a course in caring for clothes. And how to send clothes to charity shops to remove them from circulation.

I have a high instep which I assumed was why my feet were small for my height. I’m still a ring size I, despite being 3 stone heavier than my wedding day my fingers haven’t really got any bigger.

Weirdly my fingers never grew. My ring fingers stayed the same even when my ankles blew up in pregnancy and post hip surgeries.

I have size three feet. If anyone would like to offer me a position as princess I would be happy to accept. I would promise to employ you all as my stylists, and listen, as I love your comments and lack style myself. I have very long curly hair despite being Catherine's age so this may be our only point of disagreement.

Me too. I’m tallish at 5’9 but have size 3 feet. Or ‘stumps’ as my husband calls them. 😂

Anyway, Meghan looked absolutely stunning today in her burgundy coat. I’m going to
enjoy seeing her out and about as I (generally) love her style.

I just went to Instagram to check the blazer and the Royal Fashion Police thread the posts have vanished for me. Can anyone else with this account check for me?

Looks like she has hidden or deleted all her posts.

I'm in the Megs style fan club too. I love her coat particularly.
I really liked the red leather skirt and top posted up thread, there was a green version too ✔️

Oh, that's classic RFP 🙄 She likes a dramatic flounce and saying she gives her time for free but now she's lost interest and will never return etc etc.

Spoiler: she always does.

Ah right, thanks all. She was going on about paying for her sub stack?? Then was unhappy about some magazine stealing her research. Best to take a break.

He looks very smart there, clearly taken after Mary rather than scruffy Fred!

Yes, I was thinking that Fred could take a leaf out of CPC 's book.
He's really a Donaldson, isn't he?

I don’t like the bag. Sorry
I don’t like the wine skirt and jumper from some years back either it’s a bit “busty barmaid” to me. Again apologies.

Facially he is very like his mother too.

I have a really high instep but I’m a size 7 😆

Your foot is meant to be the length between your inner elbow & wrist but that can’t work for the poster who is 5ft 9 but a size 3

Edited

I don't think so! That would mean very large feet on every one!
Princess or not 😅

@Maireasit works for me & your arms outstretched finger to finger should be your height.

Blimey. I think I'm out of proportion!

A teacher had us do it all in school years ago because non of us believed him! There are other ones like your thumb outstretched to middle finger should be the length of the start of your hairline (if not receding) to bottom of your chin.

Fortunately, schools have changed. Imagine reinforcing that with students who then discover they don't fit the standard. Nightmare.
