A better hat was not possible with all these trees alongside The Mall in glorious autumn leaves. A fabulous choice by the Duchess of Cornwall.

It is quite a remarkable outfit - even though it is a neutral colour that can often look boring, somehow the design and the way Camilla has accessorised it so cleverly with the incredible hat and brooches, she has turned beige/mushroom into a very exciting colour!

 I agree. The outfit would have been boring without the right accessories. The hat and brooch really made the outfit pop.

You are all spot on as to the part the accessories played in making what was a sort of meh dove-grey ensemble, first worn in Washington without a hat and accessorised with a tan clutch and shoes and turning into a star with the addition of a beautiful hat which I don't know when first worn, and different clutch, gloves and shoes.

I do not have words for Camilla. It begins to be stylistically one of my favorites. Another one beautiful appearance elegant chic. And I love that necklace.

Poor Camilla, I knew as soon as I saw this photo, what had happened:
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/...6603670409.jpg
You have to understand the life of luxury and ease of the royals.
Firstly, the Air Force (RNZAF) flys you in on a military aircraft that is pretty darned basic. No first, second or business class for them, it's cattle class all the way.
Secondly, instead of landing and hauling up at a civilised terminal with a skywalk, you get the military terminal on the other side of the airfield, steep (and I do mean steep) metal stairs to navigate down to an open tarmac and, since its Wellington Airport, it is either:
a. Pouring down with rain;
b. Blowing a howling gale, or often and in this case;
c. Both!
Sensible Camilla left the hat off and tied her elegant pashmina like a scarf. Plenty of time to play lady's later and, when she dons her hat, it will cover a multitude of sins created by the weather. Not sure whether the umbrella survived.
Welcome to New Zealand Camilla, it's good to see you back.  
ps: Flying into Wellington Airport on a day like that is pretty hairy and definitely not for the faint of heart.

I think it is new and she looks lovely in those blues because they have more depth than pastels which wash her out.
