Yes, but her looks are alwasy restrained.

It's the 'look how much fashion fun I'm having with the taxpayers money' she seems to avoid. In my eyes, anyway!
It may look “restrained,” but most of her designer clothes are just as, if not more, expensive than Letizias. The gold Jenny Packham is a $6k gown. Her Alessandra Rich outfits are minimum $1k each, not including shoes and accessories. Her Alexander Mcqueen suit sets are upwards of $4k each.
She’s a Princess and should dress like one, but the reality is her clothes are extremely expensive, even the clothes that appear restrained.
 
He could be doing truly important things and making a difference in the world, but instead we get this nonsense? This is what he fled the BRF to do? This is more embarrassing than the window juggling.

A village has lost their idiot. Someone please come collect him.

Truly disturbing - for Christmas? It’s like a cry for help.

For sure. I was just trying to show some examples of how Letizia managed to dress sexier/youthful and still look royal. To each their own, of course.

Cultures have individual definitions of what’s hot/sexy and classy, and perhaps Spain’s cultural ideals differ from Britain’s.

Both women look wonderful, imo. :love:

Wow, that really is expensive.

Which is probably one of the reasons Kate sticks to pretty conservative attire. She pulls stuff out from 10 or more years ago and rewears them so her cost per wear is probably pretty good. She even re uses all her formal evening gowns. She couldn’t re use really trendy items years later. Of course she’s also able to shop her own closet because she never seems to gain an ounce. I wish I could still get into my clothes from 15 years ago :frown:
 
If Kate evere looks "dowdy", she's at least always appropriate. In her world, dealing with fashion criticism is one less thing she needs to deal with. It isn't her role to push the envelope when it comes to taking fashion risks. Her figure alone could make anything look extravagant.
I agree if she went for garish fashion trends the clothes would wear her not the other way round - she is perfect for us Brits as she is and she is our future Queen so as long as we are happy she is doing well - we had a brief taste of an alternative updated monarchy for a couple of years and dont want any of that again

Her sister and mother have the same amazing figures -they all eat healthily exercise and enjoy life - they are always smiling and laughing together - William felt more at home at their house than in any castle when he started dating Kate -maybe not spending 24/7 consumed by evil jealousy and plotting revenge is also part of the trick for why she is so all round perfect - I love her - and mum to 3 wonderful beautiful happy normal children too - that family are a mirror image of her own happy childhood and William looks so proud of that on every family picture - now that is a positive new royal family for the future - less formal posed sad looking children

Interesting to see her wear so many sleeveless dresses. She has a killer figure and looks great in them all, as would Catherine. But I thought I read that one of the “rules” for the women in the BRF is nothing sleeveless. In any event, having seen Catherine in so many different outfits, I suspect that her personal style is to wear more classic clothes, with the exception of formal dinners and functions.

Right...I don't know many women who can fit into their engagement blouse 11 years and three kids later.
 
Grey hair is also genetic: my youngest daughter and my youngest son both started going grey very early, in their 20's. My DD, who is now 41, is much greyer than me and has been dying her hair for ages. Both my parents went grey very late, so I took after them, luckily!
I started having wisp of gray in my late 20's. Now I'm absolutely completely gray in my late 30's. I also have two active velcro toddlers, whom grayed me
more lol!
