I was excited to get home to see photos of today and not disappointed
I see people saying that she has broken away from her modernist style, and not being herself. I disagree.
This is a garden party. It called for something soft and flowing. If Kate was there, she would likely have been in one of her lace or flowery looks. But those aren't Meghan's style. She chose a simple, still pretty clean lines and nothing frufru about it, dress. But it is softened in the lovely blush color, and the retro vibe of the look gives it a softness we haven't seen before.
Perfect balance, her simple taste, but with a soft retro vibe. Perfect
And as a hat lover, I am in insane heaven. I absolutely love her hat. A proper brimmed hat. Proper hats don't require ribbons or flowers to make them fantastic. I love the style of this, fits the retro feel. Fantastic choice.
And the stunning updo. I can only imagine how many boxes of hairpins it took to keep it up. Looks amazing with the hat.
Now this is the vintage I like. Not the 60s coat dress and those horrible box hats. Box hats suit very few people, Maxima one of only ones I like them on.
