Beatrice and Eugenie

Very good question eazybee
Maybe to ensure we do not get ideas above our station ??

That dress Beatrice was wearing yesterday though, it was much too old for her, I thought she looked frumpy. It’s the gathers, also the puffy sleeve joining that does it, and the colour didn’t suit her. Eugenie looked sharp, her dark hair suits orange which not many can pull off, and her dress was well cut and a bit different. I appreciate we all have different taste ourselves though.

We certainly do Casdon. Unlike Fanny Ilike the way Kate dresses but am not keen on the York sisters sense of style.

I think Kate could look wonderful in a bin bag.

I don’t think Bea’s dress was frumpy. It wasn’t a bright colour, but the style emphasised her lovely trim figure. She has often got it wrong in the past, and this simple but elegant dress and hat suited her, looked classy but not attention grabbing.

I wish David Dimbleby hadn’t kept describing Catherine’s dress as ‘yellow’, it wasn’t, it was ‘lemon’.

Exactly. Just because I don’t like the way that she dresses, doesn’t mean that I don’t think that she looks good.
But I do think that she dresses very safely, which is part of her job of course.
I’m rather in agreement with what Hillary Mantel wrote about Kate a few years back; which caused rather a hoo hah.

She’s tall and very slim GSM of course she would look good in a bin bag!

I'm not keen on a lot of Kate's clothes. Of course, she plays it very safe, sensible women. Designed to fit her role. But frequently clothes the Queen would have worn 20 years ago. Quite different in her private life, I'm sure.

I thought the sisters looked elegant, dressed appropriately for the occasion.

Wasn't what Megan wore yesterday - the white coat-dress - very similar to what Kate wore the day before, or did my eyes deceive me?

I do like that effect, dressing all in one block of colour. I really loved that green cape dress MM wore for their appearance before leaving the UK.

Meghan.

Meg h an.

Perhaps Catherine lent it to her?

?

Sorry, volver. Point taken! I'm usually the fussiest of spellers, can't think what came over me.

Back to Beatrice and Eugenie. I thought they looked great actually. Neither of them are skinny model types (thank goodness) but they do always look happy, which goes a long way.

Now to make myself unpopular - I thought Carrie Johnson looked very good in her red dress.

I thought Eugenie looked lovely, but if I’m honest I thought Beatrice’s dress was too old looking, not for a woman in her thirties.

And I totally agree

I though the outfit was perfect for the occasion. She looked lovely as did everyone else.

Camilla looked nervous, didn't she? I quite liked her outfit but she did not look very confident.

Re Camilla.
I think that I’d be nervous too.
Her chosen life of country woman is going to change immeasurably very soon.

Probably Camilla was thinking about the next stage of her Royal life, when Charles becomes King and she will be Camilla, Queen Consort. That is what I think she will be known as, not as ‘The Queen’, i.e. when the QM was Queen.

I bet she dreads the thought of the Coronation, but I think it will be more low key than the last one.

There were some lovely outfits on display yesterday. I’m here for the frocks

Apparently,(back to the frocks), Beatrice and Sophie Windsor(Winkleman) wore the same dress, but in different colours.

Phew!!! What a relief! Imagine if they had turned up in the same dress.

I just saw some bits on the news and I thought Meghan looked wonderful but I guess that wouldn’t fit most of your agendas of ‘dislike’ nor the daily Mail or Sun I think Camilla always looks very nice she never tries to get the limelight just classically good

I was overjoyed with the crowds booing of Johnson and he looked a bit shaken Its about time he realised there is reactions to his actions he’s not got a complete shelter screen around him even if he can manipulate most people
I though his wife’s hat might take off like a spinning top

Who is Sophie Windsor? Is she Freddie Windsor's wife - Freddie as in son of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent? I'm confused.com.

Re Camilla, yeah, I reckon she's dreading it, FannyC. Not something you would want to take on as a retirement project - monarchy, that is, is it?

I’ve been on the same flight as Camilla up to Scotland. She wore a coat I wouldn’t have given a dog to sleep on.

Ive just seen Sophie Countess of Wessex in a photo today. She’s wearing an elastic-waisted dress. If it’s good enough for her, it’s good enough for me - I’ve always avoided them because the ‘old lady’ vibes but maybe I’m changing my mind. ✅

Sophie Windsor is an actress and Claudia Winkleman’s half sister.
