It's a lovely gown but slightly too long.
Her dress is by Akris Fall 2014 runway

I love her look... the only cons is that it makes her even taller... but she looked beautiful!

Charlene looks great! I love the colour of her gown, it's beautiful. I don't think the gown is too long (though that might be because I like long gowns because of the flowing effect they have), but I can understand why some may think that. However, the only thing I don't particularly like here is her hair - has she had it cut? It looks shorter than usual to me, but perhaps that's just the way it's been styled.

She looks great as usual. She is easily the most elegant Royal lady around. But I actually prefer the runway dress along the hem as opposed to the version she wore. But still very feminine and elegant. Her hair seems longer to me...

The hem of the aquamarine evening gown was just a tad too long on Charlene, but overall she wore it 100x better than the runway model did.
She is on a roll lately!

Not sure I agree with what she's doing with her eye make-up these days but it's her choice. She is definitely happy, simply beaming, and that's wonderful to see. That trumps everything! 
She's definitely shifting her style. More confident, maybe, to be herself. Hard to say what's happening but it's definitely a shift.

Moonmaiden23, we are referring to different outfits...I actually meant the one worn to the GP. And I agree with you on the evening gown.

Both outfits are a miss for me. The color of the blue gown is pretty, but I don't like the satin bottom or the extra long hem. The white dress is just odd looking. I will say that her hair and make-up look great.
Here's the outfit she wore earlier today.

I really like that outfit. When it comes to her casual style, she always looks great.

Unfortunately for me, something is changing that I do not find appealing. I have never liked excessive eye-make-up. It adds years to a face imo, maybe because I see so much of it in my work (the very young being caked with it). But it's her choice, and it's the last I'll say about it.
She must be having fun with it else she would't do it.

Lady N, she is definitely going for a heavier, smokier look around her eyes. For the twins' baptism she even had false eyelashes which I normally dislike but it looked great on her and made her features stand out more.
Overall the jury is out for me on the new "smoky eyes" look but overall she looks sensational. Her new confidence and happiness now is great.
I still think Akris is a hit/miss deal for her. Charlene's go-to Houses should be Dior, Armani, and Calvin Klein.
C4A, thanks for the heads up. I am not really sure how I feel about the white casual dress. I don't like or dislike it. The illusion effect around the shoulders is nice. Her makeup is beautiful.

I don't particularly care for Akris. I've only liked a few of the outfits she has worn from that label. Armani is another one that I find hit or miss. I think her best looks have come from Dior and Ralph Lauren. In fact, one of my favorite outfits was the purple Ralph Lauren gown.

I'm usually not a fan of heavier eye make-up, but it works for Charlene.
Here's a better photo of her casual outfit.

Charlene is so distinctive and interesting in her fashion choices these days. She's no clothes horse but rather someone who is steadily gaining in confidence to be able to carry off difficult styles rather than play safe. I loved her outfit for the Grand Prix - and I might add she looked streets ahead of all the super models parading about the grid.

Okay, I've made up my mind. I really don't like the white summer dress at all and I don't understand why she wore those dark gray pumps with such a casual dress. But I love the outfit earlier with the white jeans, and the aqua gown is to die for.
She looks to be growing her hair out.
