Charlene has said she doesn't like jewelry so I don't think we will be seeing her any much of it.

I haven't read this anywhere, but if you're right, then perhaps she should have made this clear to her husband and others before they gifted her with such lovely individual pieces. Perhaps the money could have been better spent on charitable causes.

Elly C,nobody knows if she made this clear to her husband.Even if she told him this,a grand set of jewelery is something the wife of a monarch must have.
Morever,If Prince Albert didn't offer Charlene those jewels everybody will have find this very weird.
There are already so many negative people who like to spread bad rumours on them,imagine if he didn't offer her those jewels

Actually this might have been an opportunity to present Charlene in a more positive light - particularly if instead of jewellery, it was announced that the wedding present would be a specific gift - say a hospital wing or educational facility. But I agree, there would have been some who would have made mischief. I just wish now she's got them, she'd wear the jewels to please us all

I thought she had 2 rather good accessories....the Prince of Monaco and the Secretary General of the UN.

I couldn't find a still photograph of this, but Charlene is wearing a rather beautiful dress- it's right at the beginning of the video, so don't blink or you'll miss it. Yes, it's black, but the neckline is scrumptious.

For a charity concert yesterday evening she also wore a combination in black:

Simple, elegant but boring. Back to safe, traditional clothing. Just in time to confirm my theory. Either horrid looks, or something safe and boring. Still don't see anything "avant garde" about those outfits. Simple, safe outfits. But boring. Some accessories would help, maybe a little jewelry, a scarf, a pop of colour... so many possibilities to make it better.

Same as above. Quite nice with the coat, but do not think the dress itself is good on Charlene, does not suit her figure. And again, it's black and boring...

Now what do we have here? Oh, yes, black... Why am I not surprised? Well, at least it's huge and looks horrible, yet again. So far we had three quite nice looks and the now back to the horrible something again. Way too big, too long, too wide, too everything. If she really likes maxi coats, I think she could have chosen a way better one. And maybe not in the depressing black?

Finally, something in a different colour, after four all black outfits in a row. But, still boring. Like the suit and think the peplum is a good choice for Charlene's type of body, but some accessories (i.e. a necklace, a bangle, a scarf of a different colour, or something in those lines) would have saved it from being safe, plain and boring outfit.
