I think it's nice she stopped by like that- I'm looking forward to the official announcements about the charities she'll be supporting
I wonder if that would factor into Kate's decision of whether she should become the charity's patroness.
I agree with you. Jeans would not be the wear of the teaching/supportstaff who worked there either so she wouldn't have exactly fitted in.To me, even if the visit was "under the radar," Kate probably should have dressed more appropriately. A nice pants suit or jacket and slacks would have fit the bill quite well.
Yes, indeed. I do think, however, that Catherine was a little underdressed for the occasion. It was a working visit, though a private meeting. She needn't have worn a dress or even a skirt, but a nice pair of dress-pants would have been dressier than jeans. Or she could have dressed up the jeans with a smart jacket.
The Duchess was there to visit The Art Room. She met with nine students. We do not know what she did during the meeting -- whether they did any work together. The rest of the school waved at her from the parking lot. So no, I do not think it was her intention to meet the rest of the school. It was clearly a private visit, as quoted by spokespersons. And I find it ridiculous that the article should focus on the fact that she wore jeans.
Kate needs to project a "work" persona. The Queen would never turn up underdressed, neither would Camilla nor the Princess Royal.
The last time I checked Catherine isn't a 85 year old Queen, nor is she a 64/61 year old lady so can we please not compare her to generations way older than her? Catherine is a 29 year old, imo she is dressed how she should be ... it was an informal vist and she looked nice.
Please don't admonish me. If she's on business, she needs to dress for business. I was comparing Kate to HM and PR only in that they know how to dress and, apparently, she does not.
She was on an informal trip to get a look at the program. If it was an official visit then yes she would need to be dressed for it. So IMO she did know how to dress for it.
So, on an impromptu visit to a factory she's going to wear overalls and gumboots? Yeah right!From the link above, they used to have a picture when I posted it where all the Adult wearing jeans and some wear wearing jean jackets. So I think she dress appropriated, it would look ridiculous otherwise
I think unless she turned up in her wedding dress the children wouldn't be happy they think a princess always wears a big gown and crown. She looked fine
