I was never a huge fan of the dress she wore today with the grey jacket. I prefer the dress she wore the previous evening. I like that she is wearing her hair longer, but because it's been dyed blonde for so many years the ends are now looking quite dry. I am not saying she needs to not dye it blonde, as I am not sure how she would look with brown hair. I just mean the ends need a trim or something to help the dry look.

I'm not a fan of any of the dresses, but the slacks and the blouse are all right.

I enjoy Sophie's fashion choices in recent years. They are always interesting - sometimes suiting her figure - but she has a " polished" style.

The last two outfits are lovely. The tunic with white slacks looks very comfortable, but still appropriate for a reception. The white dress with blazer is a very polished, and professional appearance.

I like her Indian style blouse she wore on the 21st. I don't mind her trousers and I'm not sure why, but there's something about her shoes that I'm not too sure about. Her white suit is very nice, however.

Loved the green and white outfit. Loved the white outfit. The strongly printed dress made my eyes hurt. Did not like the Indian inspired outfit. Loved the white one.
White and blue. So elegant. Perfect. Like a postcard. Red- Stunning. Best so far.

Hereditary Princess, what is wrong with her shoes is that they are pointy, and that's so old fashioned most of the members of the RF probably never saw pointy pumps before.
I got over complaining about high heels, since I realize these royals wear very expensive shoes engineered to be worn without too much foot damage. But when it comes to pointy toed pumps, be warned: there is no escape from bunions! Your surgery is scheduled.

I know foot damage is your thing, but some women wear lovely shoes their whole life with no trouble. My boss is a woman executive in her sixties who still wears lovely shoes that I'd kill to own, with no apparent discomfort.

 I agree with you; there are some lovely shoes available.

That's probably it- I'm not too keen on pointy shoes. However in general, Sophie looked very nice.

See, I love pointed hells. I think they look much smarter, and Sophie has some amazing pointed heels. Her black Jimmy Choo's being one pair that I love.
