Duchess of Cornwall looked great in a Scottish-themed outfit. Although she is blond, brighter colder colours become her reasonably well. I like tartan elements (I hope I use the correct word) of her outfit. The forgoing is my personal subjective opinion.

Wow! Camilla looks gorgeous. I love the way she's covered her neck with tartan, it looks very Princess Alexandra. Fabulous.

Question: I was over on a thread for the Countess of Wessex and saw that a portrait had been painted for one of her patronages. She was in evening dress. My question is--has an official portrait been taken of Charles and Camilla since their marriage? If there have been some, I'd like to see them, if anyone has any links.

Agreed! That pink suits her well, in fact it makes her look younger than her 39 years.

I wonder if we will ever see a picture in some twenty years of the then adult prince Christian of Denmark visiting his British relatives in Scotland, sporting the MacDonald's tartan? For while Charles is a quarter Scot with Stuart-blood, Christian is half Scot with his mother's blood being pure Scottish, born in Australia to emigrated Scots...

Thank you for the pictures, milla Ca! It looks like they're enjoying their anniversary (despite what the Dirty Mail says).

Questions for you tartan experts out there: is that the Balmoral tartan the Duchess is wearing? Which tartan is the Duke of Rothesay wearing?

Thank you for the pictures milla Ca, as we can see they are clearly being restrained from fighting in public!

I think today Camilla wore the Balmoral tartan and Charles Gordon, but please correct me Skydragon when i´m wrong.

They spent their honeymoon there so it was only fitting Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall should return to Scotland for their third wedding anniversary.

I like her second tartan outfit as well. The combination of grey,black, and a shade of the red colour looks great.

I remember that "back in the day" Charles and Diana were called The Glums, also (referring back to the Daily Mail story).

It's pretty typical of a marriage, though, that the honeymoon glow has worn off by 3 years -- not that that means people are filling out the divorce papers! And Charles certainly doesn't look as dismal as he did during the end of his marriage to Diana. (And if things were going badly, Charles would probably not be able to cover it up, also judging by the photos of the 1990s.)

IMO only one pic of today says more than every D.... Mail article can do:

I'm pretty sure Charles is wearing the Rothesay tartan too.
