I don't know...I think the color is great on her. And I prefer her with shorter hair, as it is now. All in all, I think she looks very good.

Well, she seems to love that colour as she wears it quite often. You should wear clothes you feel comfortable with and so she does
Thanks to all who posted the newest pics!

Is that some kind of uniform Edward is wearing?
or it's just his "particular" sense of fashion coming out again?
Gotta love Sophie's top, it's very beautiful

Is that some kind of uniform Edward is wearing?
or it's just his "particular" sense of fashion coming out again?

It's the Windsor uniform, which has been around for quite some time.

 

[iceflower]

It's the Windsor uniform, which has been around for quite some time.

I wonder if Sophie likes him in that uniform , she has once more shown a much better sense for fashion the last days..

Edward's off for an official visit to Macedonia, where is that?

Macedonia is one of the countries that used to be part of Yugoslavia:
