Beautiful bride! Very understated!

Not interested but you chose to respond to her post with a jibe about her attitude. Nobody should care about anything you post, I will agree to that.

I always look a bit of tartan kilt at a wedding!

Or even love but a look is even better.

Re @DingDingaling 's post. - I can see why people think she has too many wrinkles but a photograph is a tiny moment in time . Kate I think can look quite hard faced in some photos and utter lovely in others. Hard when you have so many photographs taken of you . But lovely to see people looking natural.

And the men who pissed away the £ 1,000 will demand the one with £ 5,000 share his in the interests of 'a fairer society.'

Exactly. And everyone else will have to chip in to support his family because he has no money.

Even if everyone earned exactly the same, you can't dictate what they spend it on (communism goes some way towards this but who wants to live under a communist regime?).

I'm all for helping those who need it - the sick, the disabled, the parents whose partner has abandoned them, people who have been made redundant etc, but life just isn't, and can never be "fair".

Eye crinkles or whatever this lady has class - it oozes from her. It's something that can't be bought or acquired. It is something innate and natural. It's an inner happiness that shows through.

Totally agree. It’s lovely to see.

Love that! My DH is the same.

Although tbf my previous relationship the guy was super critical of everything about my appearance because I was 'representing him' he used to say. So it was lovely to meet DH whose only reaction to anything I wear and ask if it's okay is 'you always look beautiful'. (That's not true but I like to hear it anyway!)

I know a fair chunk of my friends who are around 35ish or older and none have wrinkles that look like that. I wonder if it's a combination of dehydration, tired and heavy make up settling in what would be fine lines. I think she looks 10 years older than she actually is.

Wow. WTF?

What?

It’s just mean.

I saw the photo (not on MN) and couldn't believe how old she was. Came on MN, saw the thread and expressed it and wondered whether others thought the same. And they have. People have also said they don't like her shoes... People say all sorts on here, in droves, that are all kinds of mean.

I'm also not going to really fawn over someone I don't know.

It’s not fawning to keep away from talking about women’s bodies. But whatever. It’s all shoes to some.

I'd have said the same if something like that caught my eye on a man too...

I probably would have responded the same way, too. Whatever. I don’t know her. I’m sure she’s not reading here. But it makes other people reading feel crappy about their own looks.

I've probably been lurking on AIBU too long and become a hardened grump.

Fair play. I’m cranky and over sensitive on behalf of others. Sorry!

I think the "dehydrated" comments are just silly. No-one can tell that, it's one of those nonsensical health and beauty myths "have you been drinking enough water?" .
Commenting that someone looks 10 years older than their age is just unkind really.

Especially when describing someone on their wedding day!

So true, @Lifestooshort71 . Just so mean spirited.

fao

I know a fair chunk of my friends who are around 35ish or older and none have wrinkles that look like that.

That's good.
I think it's best to actually know a "fair chunk" of your friends.
I tend to aim for knowing 100% of mine.

And well done them for not having wrinkles that look like that.

So isn't it lovely that Olivia (that poor hideous old crone, according to some) has overcome her awful looks with, presumably, her sparkling personality, talent and general nice-osity and married the very eligible Hugh Grosnevor?

And isn't it lovely that Hugh Grosvenor - who will have had conventional, unwrinkled beauties (perhaps almost as gorgeous as the friends fao actually knows) flinging themselves at him - has seen past the dehydrated wrinkles and premature ageing and fallen in love with the person, not the looks?

Or it could be that Oliva is very pretty indeed as well as being a good person?

And it could be that Harry's bitterness at not going to the wedding is such that it's seeped out and infected people who previously wouldn't have known about Hugh & Olivia if they'd tripped over them on the street...
I don't see why this is on the RF topic otherwise.

A few wrinkles is better than the plastic botox/fillers look everyone seems to have nowadays. Quite refreshing actually.

Absolutely

The only thing I know that seeps out unpleasantly like that is sewage.

Actually, that is incorrect.

I forgot about pus.
