I think we are ALL a little too casual sometimes for the events of life, weddings & funerals in particular!! Please, Your Royal Highness, be the mother of the bride in an appropriate dress!!!

Now THAT I would probably want to see a bit more than anything else related to Zara's wedding (accept the bride's dress). I'm crossing my fingers that Princess Royal will pick and wear something that will do her justice.

Instead of the gloves it's the shoes today It's a nice fresh outfit, but the dark and
flat shoes are only comfortable not nice.

At least, they have the same colour as the handbag, and thus it is not bad.

I like the casual look this outfit offers. She looks very comfortable.

[Russophile]

I agree Ice. She looks great in slacks.Thanks!

[princess gertrude]

Great blue color on Princess Anne and I am in agreement about her looking great in slacks. She's has a great body (and not just for her age either). She's been looking hipper and younger as of late. Could I dare hope for a new hairstyle too??? Okay, maybe not, I'll have to be satisfied with the clothes!

[Danishla]

I want to comment on the princess pantsuit; the colors suit her well; what I think takes away from the look are the "shoes" just plain ugly and the hairdo. I would love to see her doing something with her hair!

Back to her usual glum self, I see. Couldn't she have worn something a bit more colorful for her daughter's party? I like the dress and it fits well, just not festive enough...

[KittyAtlanta]

I think The Princess Royal looked just fine...I'd like someone to post what would be "appropriate" clothing for her.

Maybe if she smiled?

[Renata4711]

Anne is a no-nonsense type of person, and she won't be able to change now into something that is "not hers".

[udyusa]

That is always Anne's best accessory!! :)

Thank you!! Maybe if she smiled people wouldn't be so zeroed in on what she wears. I'm wondering if this woman is ever happy ... or looks it. It's nice that she is a hard worker and "down to earth" but frankly I wouldn't want to be anywhere near her (not that I would have a chance). She was really an attractive young woman but being "no nonsense" does not require that one looks like a major grouch most of the time, IMHO.

[udyusa]

I so agree! That is why I said that a smile is her best accessory... I wouldn't want to be near her on her on one of "bad" days...

She would be LETHAL. Although I must say I would enjoy it but your Russo is a bit of a massochist after all. . .
I know what you mean, Udy, she has a fabulous figure, she has such regal bearing and poise and yet she doesn't do more. And she would look so much more. Alas! Just not our Anne's personality.

[Opal]

She is usually smiling when doing her engagements. She actually seems warm and engaging with people.
