Very true. She's very economical and obviously doesn't want to be seen as a clothes horse.

Thank you so much for the nice pics Iceflower !

Are the pics with Tom and Camilla from the same event?
Did her son present his new book this evening in Tetbury?

She sure has come along way in being accepted into the prince's life. I'm glad of this myself as I do admire the woman who has had to face the world head on after the Diana.

She wore that brooch a few days ago as well (without comment!).
I guess people have just accepted it's her right to, as the wife of The Prince of Wales. About time too!

Edit: 2 times! It's different days and different events, but same outfit for the Duchess.
First during the visit of Charles and Camilla to the 3rd Battalion Parachute Regiment in the Hyderabad Barracks on November 22.
Second time during the traditional Sunday morning church service in Sandringham on November 26. (curtesy of Iceflower)

CAMILLA GETS IN THE MOOD FOR CHRISTMAS IN TETBURY

Villagers in the Cotswold town of Tetbury boast some very regal neighbours in the residents of Prince Charles nearby Highrove Estate, but rarely get the chance for a neighbourly chat. So it was no surprise to see an enthusiastic crowd turn out to see the Duchess of Cornwall turn on the community's Christmas lights.

More pictures from getty here.

How wonderful that Camilla had such a warm welcome in Tetbury!
I´m so glad to see that more and more people start loveing her !

Thank you for sending the pics again where Camilla wears the brooch with the Prince of Wales feathers, it seems to become one of her favourite pieces.

Really, wouldn't you think Charles would have bought her a brooch with a Christmas tree or a Santa face or a partridge in a pear tree or something a bit more seasonal than a bunch of feathers? Some people have no Christmas spirit...

People would really complain if she was seen with Christmas spirit!

Is that who it was, I had obviously started on the 'Christmas spirit' a little early!
