MT looks really nice - gorgeous color - but I agree about the heavy sequins at the top being too much for daytime.
I love Claire's coat and hat, and that the shoes match the piping on her hat. But I am not a fan of the toe of her shoes; seems so harsh (for lack of a better word) with such a delicate outfit.

Princess Claire often wears wrong outfits for public Events.

Alexandra's skirt is too short. Not liking the repeated casual hat with the navy/black dress. Interesting necklace though. Strange mix.

I sure hope she is wearing great panties for that is one very short short dress and so not appropriate for being a princess at an royal family event. Good grief, she was let out of the palace like that.. 
Not liking the outfit either......not the hat....nor the purse, sloppy put together on the run type of outfit.

I like Alexandras hat, the dress is too short.

Oh my, I didn't even notice Alexandra's outfit. The skirt is WAYYYYYYYY too short, bordering on the indecent. The top half is fine, the hat and jewelry are good.

 I agree... except for the skirt length it's a cute outfit. 
Claire usually looks great and I adored her in that powder pink coat when she first wore it to Gui and Steph's wedding but something is "off" in this outing. Maybe it's because I so loved the way she accessorized it at the wedding, and not so much here.

I have wondered if perhaps she wasn't wearing shorts as quite elegant and fun matching suit sets have been making an appearance. It made sense to me because in my mind I could not see either her mother or father letting her appear in such a short skirt at an official event.

Madame Macron tries hard to look young. The colour of the dress is flattering though. Grand Duke Henri looks the best.

She has acknowledged that when she sits across from her husband at breakfast, she sees his 'youth', and he sees her wrinkles.

She looks great in that style of dress.

Maria Theresia looks great! I love how she has paired a light blue necklace with her navy top.

Veering off the topic ...

The dress cut and colour are lovely. Madame Macron's figure does allow her to wear such short dresses. A slightly longer skirt would have been a more elegant choice. Overall, a mini skirt/dress and high necks might be viewed as a clumsy attempt to look youthful. In my opinion, the mini dress in question is more appropriate for younger ladies.

I completely agree about Mme. Macron's fashion selection. She seems to own the same loose, very short shift dress in a variety of colors and it sadly doesn't flatter her figure or age bracket at all. But she seems a lovely woman.

MT looks lovely in those colors- hair, makeup, jewels, all really great. The Grand Duke looks as though he's going to a different event altogether.

Omg Claire! The top to the dress is barely there. And the gathers at the waist and the lace make her look much bigger
