Well, don't get overexcited over the 'new' dress! It was already worn at the silver wedding celebrations in Luxembourg.

Many pictures of the visit from yesterday

I hit a snag on flickr so I continued uploading to my photobucket.

For milla Ca: Would you rather me be negative and grumpy about Madame Sarko? {Edited to remove personal comment - Empress} As for only appreciating youth and beauty, it's quite untrue about me, but in Carla's case it must be acknowledged, for she is quite exquisite beauty. It would be wrong, imo, not to acknowledge her beauty.

Maybe - but show me one pic of Diana at an official occasion wearing such ugly clothes and such non-existing colour. I'm not fond of her purple coat either - somehow she is not the best ambassador for French Fashion. Just compare her outfits to those CP Mary wears on representing Danish Fashion.

Seriously, the color/clothes is a question of taste. You do not like it, others do.
Personally, I find many things that Diana wore quite ugly, but this again, is a question of taste.

I thought Carla's clothes were quite classy on the first day, if a bit lacking in color. I'm not trying to be catty at all, but some of her first few outfits made it look like she had a tummy (just noting...). I think it was just the cut of her clothes though. Her purple coat today was a nice mix-up from the navy and gray of before. I was looking for a close-up of the earrings she wore when she was at the airport--they looked nice!
