LaMinka I just saw the pic of Martha Louise in the chicken (?) ensemble and howled with laughter. Do you know the event she was attending? What in the name of sanity was she thinking of!?

The picture was meant to be a joke, it has been altered to look like a chicken outfit. MA wore the yellow dress with red flower to the wedding of the Crown Prince of Spain. She was really ridiculed for it, clearly she meant to ruffle a few feather (no pun intended) with that dress. I believe it was later sold to raise money for charity, although not sure.

There was no intent on Märtha Louise's part to "ruffle feathers" as you put it. She wore the dress to honour the bride and groom as the colours reflected the colours of the Spanish flag, but she was ridiculed for her good intent. :)

Oh, thats right Mandy I remember reading about ML's tribute. She was really slammed about her ensemble wasn't she? I didn't think it was bad at all. I'm glad that was an altered picture of her.

what is even funnier looking but hurts is when the back of your long dress gets caught on the bottom of your heel and you try to take a step forward and fall backward. it happened to me and it was hilarious. i laughed on the floor!
