The British Royal Family - news, views, clothes & shoes! #4

The dress hanging out is bizarre.

Meghan is tiny. I know some incredibly thin women in real life. In pictures, they look of normal weight. I cannot imagine how slender Meghan must be.

That baby must be very hard on her being so thin. I remember how my babies felt like a ton of bricks. And I was of normal weight.

I think she is beautiful. Her hair is not sprayed down with a gallon of hair spray.

Now if she would only ditch the health hazard shoes.

Hair royal highness! Meghan ditches her messy bun for a sleek topknot as she opts for an all-black outfit including a recycled Givenchy coat for university visit

It’s a nice coat but it looks like one you would wear to a funeral.

She has a penchant for wearing cocktail party clothes to staid morning and afternoon meetings and events. Who wears a sheer maternity cocktail dress to a meeting with university officials in the middle of the afternoon?

I'm sure there are people attempting to give her advice. That said, her taste could be much worse and it doesn't seem likely to change. She's not a young, impressionable person. She's older, more set in her ways. Everyone will just have to get used to her "unique" style.

I hope she and Harry have a happy life. Harry doesn't crave the spotlight and perhaps he didn't realize he was marry ing someone who does. Hopefully, they'll find a happy balance.

The Queen is to allow Prince Harry and his pregnant wife Meghan Markle to choose some pieces from the Royal Art Collection to decorate their new home.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are expecting their first child this spring, are currently renovating Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Estate after announcing their plans to leave Kensington Palace, where they currently reside.

Now, palace insiders have told Vanity Fair that the Queen has invited the pair to choose 'several pieces' from her priceless art collection to hang in their new home.

Photo from today. The Duchess’s dress is a £2335 Oscar De La Renta. I’m not crazy about it to be honest.

Well In that picture, Harry seems to like the neckline *giggles*

 

[flute4peace]

Ok after looking at the article & the rest of the pictures. I’m not a fan of the print itself, but the black with pops of color really looks nice on her, especially with her hair down. Not a fan of such a deep neckline but happy to see something that’s looser fitting around the middle. She looks much more comfortable. I like her boots, too.

There is no doubt in my mind that her stylist hates her. The bump has moved down some.
The coat is too short again. Why such a low neckline? I just don't get it.
I like the boots but suede boots in the snow?

 

[flute4peace]

When someone has a stylist, don’t they have the final say in what they wear? More like a “pick from these options “ sort of thing? Or is it like a runway model situation where they wear it even if they hate it?

 

[Kensie]

I would think a stylist would present options and the an option is selected. What do I know??

Another dress hem hanging below the hem of the coat!

Honestly, if Meghan was trying to make Americans look sloppy she couldn't do any better.

ETA IMO that dress is about £2300 overpriced.

Thought bubble from Harry: "What was she thinking with this getup??"

It's like the former. The sylist works for the client.

OT/Related: Some years ago, I read an interview with Wheel of Fortune's Vanna White in a ladies' magazine - IIRC, it was Redbook. Vanna rarely does interviews and doesn't appear on talk shows, so I was happy to learn something about her having been a longtime fan of the popular game show. One of the questions posed to Vanna was about her wardrobe choices on Wheel of Fortune. She is presented with several apparel options during a fitting session. The clothes must fit Vanna perfectly without alterations. Wardrobe does not belong to Vanna nor does she keep items she wears on the game show. Some of the clothing is donated but many of her choices are returned to the designers whose apparel is featured in private boutiques. Shoes are fitted to complement the selected clothing, and Vanna doesn't wear any jewelry so that the garment is the focus.
