There are reports on the news that many people are trapped in Europe because they can't get flights out due to the ash from the volcano eruption in Iceland.
I'm surprised to hear the BRF were planning on sending the Duke of Edinburgh since he doesn't normally go to these types of things. They usually send Sophie & Edward.

I like that Sophie took a risk with this glitzy dress. She normally dresses so conservatively. Her shoes are to die for!

It's good to see Sophie all glammed up for a night out. Her hair and makeup look good and those shoes are fantastic! The pics of her greeting Charlene and Albert are nice.

Guys, please don't take it upon yourselves to correct other members about the spelling of a name, it's patronising and rude.
Sophie = Sofia in the Spanish-speaking world. We all know what is meant; there's no need to score points so just leave it at that.

Thanks.

Sophie's dress isn't my cup of tea (seems like a few different designs mixed in one dress), but her shoes are hot!

It really is different than the type of outfit she usually wears. But I think she looks nice overall.

Well, I'm undecided about Sophie's dress. But it does seem unanimous that her shoes are terrific!

Can someone tell me how tall Sophie is? I always thought she was tall for a woman, but in the pic of her and Charlene she looks rather short.

She must be around 1,68. Charlene is a tall woman anyway.

Sophie looks to be about 168-170 cm, which is a good height for a woman. (For Americans it's 5'6-5'7) I think Charlene is very tall for a woman even without her high heels.

Nice outfit for Sophie. It looks like a nice summery dress underneath. Pretty jewelry.

I like how the jacket ties in the front. It's different. Her clutch and shoes are nice as well.

A "typical Sophie", I'd say. Overall a nice/elegant outfit and great shoes.
