In total I think, she is improving.... slowly but steadily.

Stephanie looks terrific. I love the pink tweed of her car coat. Too much unrelieved pale pink would look washed out, but the subtly deeper pink tweed gives her a lovely healthy glow.
So, all in all, definitely one of her best looks.

Has she changed the colour of her hair, or is it the lighting? It has an auburn look.

I was happily surprised at how soft and warm looking that pink was. Too many strong colours just plain wash her right out.
The change you are noticing in her hair is the usual darkening of a true blond in winter. When she married, one of the lovliest things about her hairstyle was the exposure of the underside of her hair and it's totally natural varigation of darker colours that comes with many natural blondes.

I do believe you could be right. She has gotten off to a wonderful start this year.

Stephanie looks lovely in the pink ensemble, and I love the low pony-tail swept to the side.

Love the pink outfit on Stephanie. Thanks @Marg for explaining why her hair darkens during the winter months. I just thought that she may have colored it.

I agree...I didn't realize that about natural blonde hair vs. bottle blonde hair either. Thanks for the tip MARG!

I love this outfit. She looks great.
The dress underneath the coat seems to be the Natan dress she last December to a reception at the palace.

I think the same, I love the colours and Stephanie herself looks great, but the length of the coat is a bit off. I think it would've been better if it were the same length as the dress.

I actually sometimes like the look of the slighter shorter coats over dresses. If worn the right way it can look very nice.

I think so, too. This is a style which comes and goes. The fashion industry is very clever in convincing us that something that would have looked awkward last year is great this year! And soon enough, they'll be showing coats that are a foot longer than the dress.

 Actually, that is not too far fetched. The reappearance of midi dresses looks to be a natural precusor.
Interestingly enough, I was told by an older family friend that when the style for threequarter coats first came in, they used to call them 'Car Coats' and there were the pretty ads with the girl in a carcoat, a bouffant hair stlye, and with one of those transparant scalves getting in or out of a low slung convertaible.

March 5, 2015 - The Princess in Qatar in a purple maxi skirt, white jacket and printed scarf.
Looks like the lining is short (above the knees) I am not fond of such looks. The skirt looks too long, jacket too light. The jacket IMO should've been more crisp/tailored.

The skirt is a great color but the outfit as a whole is just bad. Too frumpy and dumpy, it doesn't suit her at all. She might've had to cover up because of the religion/customs in Qatar but there's a more elegant way to do it. Just look at the sheihka of that country! Not a good look again for Stephanie.

This is a hot mess. I normally love her hair and makeup but this time she's a complete miss.

What a mess is right - looks like something Cressida Bonas will where when she's 70.

I like the colours a lot and I like the idea of the long skirt in a cool, floating fabric, together with a scarf, but the jacket seems heavy in fabric against the other fabrics.

This is just bad surely she could have found a jacket and skirt that fit her properly.

It is a mystery to me. Stephanie looked divine on her wedding day, she is MT's DIL, the Lux family are rich, they could at least hire somebody and tell her what to wear.
Despite all this on hand, Stephanie has no clue how to dress, most of the time her clothes don't fit, do not suit her age, look matronly. And all these scarfs!
Why oh why, what a waste.

I don't think anyone is going to tell Stephanie she looks bad or needs to get some help. So we can only hope she figures it out but somehow I don't see it happening I don't think she is very interested in fashion.

Nobody.. she does have sisters.. I thought that's what they were for...
One's a nun. I'm starting to think that's the one she swaps clothes with.

I think it's way beyond not being interested in fashion. It's almost like she's having a joke on us all.
That latest outfit is nothing short of crazy,lazy, grab something out of the dress up box outfit.
I gather she doesn't listen to anyone's advice
