Nice to see Sophie and Louise together at the Horse Show. Louise is blossoming into a pretty young lady and looks very grown up and sophisticated in her outfit.
Sweet to hear as well that Strictly was a present for Louise for her birthday - she must be a fan of ballroom dancing too.
 
As Lady Louise matures, I think she increasingly resembles Queen Mary & even more so, her daughter the Princess Royal, Countess of Harewood.
 
Happy belated Birthday, James

Does the Countess have her own fashion-thread? I can't find one from my phone.
 
They couldn't have a better Patron than Sophie as she has worked tirelessly fundraising and knows exactly what they do from both sides.

Originally the FE had Sophie and Edward attending but at when the event finally occurred Sophie didn't turn up. This has happened a number of times this year with events in the FE not happening along with events being listed one day and then removed the next.
 
A bit surprised that the Wessexes flew on the private jet to St. Mortiz (a very celebrity mode of transport to a very celebrity location!) since they're usually very "good" at flying economy. I guess everyone deserves a bit of luxury once in a while though - the Wessexes are very hard working royals.
