I wish I knew her secret; she gets more elegant, beautiful and youthful by day!

I love the colour on her not so keen on the shoulders of it but love the length and the hemline

Great cut and color for her. Hairstyle should have been a little fuller to compliment the sparse neckline and no necklace.

Thanks for the picture, I like the dress but not a fan of her shoes. The addition of her adorable twosome, however, makes whatever she is wearing look nice as she has two cute accessories.

Different view of the dress:
- The dress 1
- The dress 2
Really love this dress; it's very simple but equally elegant.Don't mind the shoes either.
How cute are James and Louise though? Adorable children.

Simple and summery dress

I like the dress; not fond of the shoes. Has Sophie lightened her hair a bit? She looks great!

Love the dress, but dislike the shoes. They look too chunky and heavy for what she's wearing.

Agreed. I like both the dress and the shoes, just not together. That said, the children are adorable. James has grown so much! Nice to see them.

The dress is just okay, it needs something to give it some color, maybe a scarf. But those shoes are really too much. They look too chunky and awkward. A nude pump would have been good here IMO.

The Countess of Wessex opted for a light blue outfit tonight:
- Upper part
She has worn the dress several times before, including for this year's Royal Ascot.
Can't say I like this dress. The colour is gorgeous (I love understated), but the top part looks ill-fitting both in today's pictures and the ones from Ascot.
Plus, Sophie earns a big frown from me for failing to include a brooch this time: as far as I'm concerned a royal outfit without proper jewellery is a failure by default.

For some reason, I think that she could have done better with her appearance. Perhaps she needed stronger makeup? Sophie usually looks so good. Perhaps her outfit was a bit bland for evening?
