William and Catherine, Prince and Princess of Wales

The two dresses today fit her beautifully, but weren't my favorite looks. I understand the whole sustainability thing, but I'm so OCD it bugs me that the emeralds aren't the exact shade of green of the dress. The astro turf/carpet they're standing on in some pics however, matches perfectly. The green dress just looks somehow plain to me.

I'd like to see the other colors it came in. I would have gone for a contrast with the necklace. I'm pretty OCD too and it bothers me that the dress nearly matches the carpet. I wonder if she was aware of that when she picked it?

Love the dress, love the color! It fits with the evening. The choker is off, but agree it sends a message of ROYALTY.

The only thing I dislike is her heavy eye makeup. The dark shadow seems high on her lids.

I get what you're saying about the necklace and the dress, but in this photo they do appear to match. It's tricky.

I must have a pretty big mean streak, but I always love these side-by-side pix!

I like to mix up jewelry colors to compliment and not match. I think the Kent amethyst would look stunning with green.

Catherine looks beautiful and on point.
The dress screams “I am fit, healthy and happy”. The emeralds roar “old money” wealthy and happy. I like the way Queen Mary wore them - with a couple of diamond chokers, too. I also prefer the larger earrings. Yes, it’s a busy look, also a Queen look.

ETA: Looking forward to Catherine’s Christmas looks. Maybe the children, too?

I don't, but THAT green needs some getting used to. But I love seeing her experiment and venture out and do fun things.

at this point she can do no wrong IMO....perfect wife for the future king

This shows how the color is so similar to the carpet. Rather than blend in, she manages to stand out beautifully

Can you imagine how proud her mother must be?
