Meghan looking tragic too. Ugh.

Meghan giggles between Middletons at Wimbledon women's final to watch pal Serena

Meghan wore an outfit a time before that had her waist up that high. Both times, major fail. just don't like this look at all on her. Also, Separate whites often don't go because the bottom here looks more cream than the top white. And, the style of the shirt doesn't match the skirt either. But what do I know as I sit here in my pajamas drinking my tea.

And the whites don't match. I think she did that last year too at Wimbledon.

 

[Laughing]

both clothing items fit (didn't last year)
complies with Wimbleton dress code (didn't last week)
hair styled neatly (wasn't last year or last week)

I'm favorably impressed!

Perhaps someone has been reading here???

Pippa has the nicest outfit today....

JMHO YMMV

Gosh Pippa’s dress has a lot of ruffles she looks like a flamenco dancer. All outfits don’t look great to me. Serena didn’t win.

Princess Diana's Favorite Gym Sweatshirt Sold for Over $50k at Auction

And you thought athleisure was already getting too expensive.

'Meh - That's just small change from the marketing budget' ​

 

[CoverMeCagney]

Pretty sure if you morphed Kate and Meghan together you'd get Pippa! Anyone a technical whizz and fancy a go?

Not keen on any of today's attire, and I do think Kate is looking a little too skinny*

*my daughters class have been talking about body image at school this week, and came to the conclusion that "skinny" is a negative word and concept, the opposite of obese and not something to aspire to. They agreed that slim, healthy and fit were better all round. It shocks me how image conscious young girls are these days and I wish Kate would let a few pounds back on. That said, I have a friend with the exact same body shape who hates being tall and "skinny", and eats like an absolute pig, so...

Of the three ladies (Kate, Meghan and Pippa), two of them looked classy and polished. One of them looked like a mess.
Kate is looking frail now - Kate get a large fries and Cheeseburger from Five Guys today.
Loved Pippa's hair style. I love the color of Kate's hair.

Why wear a long sleeved shirt to sloppily push up the sleeves??

I did say a few things that were derogatory but did not mention names!!!

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle join the crowd at Wimbledon ladies' final

No private seating section for Meghan today?

Yikes. In the immortal words of Heidi Klum on Project Runway: Oooh, that's bad

It's like Markle is phoning it in.
Did her stylist quit, too?
Did they run out of money to buy a simple shirtdress?
Or maybe just a solid color navy skirt?

Really, that shirt is so wrong for that skirt.

And that skirt seems too fussy/fine for the casual shirt.

I keep thinking she needs to get the stylist her mother uses. And go for a refined stylish upscale Bohemian look. Every. Single. Photograph. Of her mother I thought was very impressive as to what she was wearing, and her hat, and her hairstyle. I thought each one was impeccable, and suited the occasion , without any criticism..

ETA, I'm not sure I use the word Bohemian correctly, but that's all I could think of and that's why I said it should be refined stylish and upscale LOL.

Never thought about this, but you are so right. I love every single thing her mom has worn. Can't think of one miss by Doria.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

Does Doria have a personal stylist? They don't come cheap.

Mad About Meghan: First Look: Meghan & Kate Arrive For Wimbledon Women's Final

From your link: In this photo of the skirt and a different blouse we see how Megan’s outfit was supposed to look. I still don’t like it, but the whites match and the blouse is better.

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

And the whites don't match. I think she did that last year too at Wimbledon.

Yep. Last year, Meghan wore a blue and white striped shirt with pants in a different hue of white. Not good

If she happens to shop at Nordstrom it’s free.

What amazes me, Megan always looked great in everything she wore in Suits. Her clothes were tailored, the perfect length, and perfect for her frame. She was dressed for the part she played and knows how to conform to be a success.

Everything she wore in NY was fabulous, she looked great. But when she's in the UK its big, blousey, way to long and mismatched. Its not really a bohemian style. IMO, she knows style, we've seen her blog. She knows she is creating negative publicity, which Harry despises, and her friends defend her publicly.

Hope she finds her fashion nitch soon....

Thanks! I’m not crazy about that blouse either, and I don’t think it’s the right outfit for Meghan. She is petite and it does nothing to elongate her. Even though the jeans and blazer weren’t according to custom, they suited her body type much better than a frumpy skirt and stiff blouse. A princess style dress just skimming her waist would have looked so much better...as long as it wasn’t too big on her!
