Hi kids!

I have been on vacation for a couple of weeks. Hope the holidays were good to you all.

I like her style..simple and classic...her clothes do not wear her, she wears her clothes. They are very tasteful for a lady at her stage in life.

She does seem to have found herself a style that looks good on her, doesn't she? Robinson Valentine must be reaping the rewards in much the same way that Catherine Walker did in the 1990s.

I think they can now afford to pick who goes on their client list. They should be very proud of themselves!:)

Robinson Valentine. Finally got the name down. Is he still her primary dressmaker/fashion advisor? The outfits RV makes are so lovely--simple but elegant and, above all, appropriate for the occasion. I should think it would be hard to find a designer one can trust to properly support you by researching what you will need when you are out and about on engagements. But RV is doing a great job--and I have to give credit to Camilla, too, as she chose that firm.:)

It's actually two designers, Robinson and Valentine, both ladies working as a team. I forgot their first names.

Antonia Robinson and Anna Valentine. At least, I think it's that way round.

You are quite right, it is Antonia Robinson and Anna Valentine. I love their extensive use of embroidery.
