Meghan spotted out and about, May 2024

[AliceOlive]

I didn’t see a new thread so wanted to start one. I’d really appreciate if everyone keeps this focused on Meghan-related fashion and lifestyle. I know I can’t expect only positive posts but let’s not get personal about Meghan or one another. 🙏

And she's so natural.

The photo I was looking at if of two women centered between Harry and Meghan. Really beautiful. Love their clothing also. Particularly the dress.

I don’t see or hear much about Nigeria usually. It’s been lovely!

Perhaps she's channelling her terrible dress sense from beyond the grave to Meghan, during their yoga sessions.

😂😂

I can’t seem to attach pictures how I’d like at the moment but Rosie Huntingdon Whitely looked the very dab at the garden party. Such elegance!

Maya Jama too.

I think someone stole my neck and added it to hers

🤣

Some lovely pics of Meghan on here!

I think that I would have preferred the neckline to go straight across from the sleeve bits rather than dip down but the colour is beautiful on her. Not the best of pictures. Sorry.

She has the body of a goddess.

Which she clearly nicked while I was sleeping @JaneJeffer 😁

Sorry for the slight derail. There were some stunning frocks on display and I got carried away.

Cracking up!

Dupe of top from Save the children meeting

Similar cut but blousier.

I really like the shape and love the baby blue colour.

@PrincessForPay, yes, the garden party was very stylish indeed. Charles again looked in great spirits.

Thank you Alice for the thread and the pictures. I've also really liked the Garden Party outfits. Rosie Huntington Whitely looks so chic, and those women in the long dresses look glamorous! Looks like a fun occasion.

@PrincessForPay I agree about he neckline of Maya Jana’s dress.

Did you see the video of he with Prince Charles?

Quote about Meghan’s clothing in Nigeria from the article below. Is this fair criticism or not? Should people be mindful of the cost of their clothing and where they are going? Are you?

'“There was one event where Meghan changed halfway through the event. She just rushed off to a side door to change,” Griffiths added. “She’s wearing an outfit that costs around £3000, in Nigeria, where there is a lot of poverty. It’s just a farce. But at least it has given us some laughs because that clip of them staring straight ahead during the national anthem is just hilarious.”

And then her smug face at the end. It's a repeat of the curtsey thing " oh Harry isn't it so funny" and him looking awkward.

Just saw this which I find interesting.

I’ve always thought that was the case. It doesn’t work though 😂

I don’t get why they are talking about her needing “petite” lengths though. 5’6” is no where near being petite. It’s above average for a woman. I just think she doesn’t get stuff tailored to fit because her clothes often don’t fit well in other places such as round the boobs

typos

The best looking dress I’ve ever had was something that was on sale but much too large. I had it altered to fit me perfectly. I was very thin at the time, and even after weight gain up to about 15-20lbs it still fit me. Only stopped wearing it when it felt a little too short for my age.

Sorry I keep jumping around but this is a nice concise view of the Nigeria wardrobe.

I think the problem is when a man chooses a ring you don’t like and you are stuck with that ring on your finger forever! I personally wouldn’t like that and would have to change it so I can see where Meghan is coming from particularly as I really dislike her ring!

I see your point (although I like her ring and think the meaning is more important than the appearance) but it's a bit odd reading the transcript of the engagement interview:

Prince Harry: The ring is - is obviously yellow gold because that's what - her favorite and the main stone itself I sourced from Botswana and the - the little diamonds either side are from my mother's jewelry collection to make sure that she's with us on this - on this crazy journey together. And ...
Meghan Markle: It's beautiful, and he designed it. It's incredible.
Prince Harry: Yeah, make sure it stays on that finger (laughs)
Meghan Markle: Of course. (laughs)

I know she had to be polite about it but I wonder where Harry got the idea that yellow gold was her "favourite"? Especially since I think the yellow gold band was one of the first things she changed.
