She had previously worn the same coat orange overcoat at last year's Grand National.

Now, I think the patterned coat is nice but the hat is just vile.
As for the orange overcoat, it's not horrible but I much rather prefer it sans the hat and with a lovely black Chanel bag (as worn for the Grand National).

Yes, the patterned coat is actually quite nice. Dunno, I actually don't find the hat THAT bad, but together with the coat and the boots... It's a bit like Princess "Inspector Gadget" Anne. I guess we all know that Anne simply doesn't care and I admire it to some degree. She's no clothes horse, she has more important things going in her mind obviously. On the other hand it is a bit of shame as she used to be such a beautiful young woman and as she still is in great shape she could look sooo much better.

Princess Anne attending a reception with IOC President Jacques Rogge to discuss the progress of the preparations for the London 2012 Olympics and its legacy. She wore a lovely blue suit, combining it with a scarf, black bag and shoes, and a brooch.

- The shoes

I think she looks really nice!
The suit is very elegant and well-tailored, the shoes and the bag are well chosen, and the scarf with brooch are interesting additions.

She looks very elegant indeed. The combination is really nice and I love the scarf combined with the suit.

The blue suit combined with the scarf looks really good. I don't like the shoes, they look old and worn out.

That's because Anne's shoes Are old! She wears them with every navy blue outfit she owns. Perhaps she has several exact pairs of them.. I do like her suit and the pretty scarf softens the look.

I think she looks great, too. I get the feeling that, like me, the Princess Royal is not a shopper. I just dragged out blouses from the 80s for the summer, because I still like them and don't like what is fashionable at the moment.

Her shoes may be vintage, but they are far more attractive (IMO) than today's shoes. The shoes are in like-new condition and so is the bag, so it matters not.

I applaud the PR for being her own person.

Oh yes, this is undoubtedly one of the smartest outfits I have seen Princess Anne wear for a long time. This very deep green shade with the contrasting black brocade is such an elegant statement. Lovely to see Princess Anne "step out" like this.

Beautiful teal blue with the black frog closures and mandarin collar, and lovely brooch. I just wish for a larger hat rather than that little clump on the back of her head. It's just lost in her hair!

[Artemisia]

Anne looks absolutely beautiful!
I love the coat, the hat, the brooch, the bag - every single part of the ensemble. Actually, of all the royal ladies today, I think Anne looked the smartest.

'New' grandma looks great. I like color scheme and coat.

[Archduchess Zelia]

I love the coat, Anne looks splendid.

[MagMil]

[IloveCP]

Kitty, I couldn't agree more. It sounds like your closet is a lot like mine.

Liking the dark green coat especially the button decorations on it.
Outfit gets two thumbs up from me!

[Jenafran]

PR looked great today! Not overly crazy about her hat, though. I've given up on her ever changing her hairstyle though. I think I'd fall off my chair if she did! Lol

[udyusa]

Anne's coat looked very smart on her but I didn't care for the hat. It was way too small and got lost in her hair..But it is the best I have seen her look in quite some time! :)

[NoorMeansLight]

I like the green coat on Anne a lot. The shoes are horrible and so outdated!

[kathl29]

I really liked this green coat on Anne. She was one of the best dressed of the day.

She has a wonderful figure for her age and this coat is cut perfectly to complement it.
