The wedge shoes are very trendy, but I don't like the way these look. Usually the wedge heels are in a more informal shoe style, so it looks strange to me (and not very attractive) to see them with a close toe shoe and a formal jacket.

I'm afraid they are the shoe of the moment in London, always closed toe for formal daytime shoes.

No, that`s only the jacket from Williams graduation. The rest is completly new. But she wore this jacket not very often, so it`s a nice look.

I thought that maybe Camilla wears that particular kind of shoes in Egypt, because apart from being trendy, they are also more comfortable. Egypt is not exactly famous for its smooth roads.

Okay, I'll give her a break on the shoes (which I don't particulary like  ). But when it comes to the rest, Camilla looked wonderful, she's one stylish lady!

I guess I don't like everything that's fashionable. (It's been fashionable to put your pants in your boots too for a long time, so I tried it once and thought it was rather uncomfortable. I dind't give in to fashion that time and I'm not going to now :p). But you're right, she really does look marvelous. I'm quite curious what their visit will bring us the next few days. It certainly is lovely to see so much of them!

Close Princejohnny25, it is the same jacket she wore to the garden party at Buckingham Palace, but the dress underneath is different. The jacket at Prince William's graduation had full length sleeves.

I love the wedge shoe (can't wait for Spring/Summer to the hit the US East Coast) and they look great on the Duchess. Yes, I am thinking that by wearing them she is being more practical then trendy.

I am just a little surprise by how short the Duchess' skirts/dresses are. With the exception of the outfit she wore to the mosque, the other day dresses/suits could pass for visiting any Western cities. I wonder if the skirts will be longer when she goes to Saudi Arabia.

Its not legs that matter so much as arms and neck in the middle east. Though they shouldnt be short skirts or shorts its ok to show your legs if your a western women. I am also intrested in how she will dress in Saudi Arabia.

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Charles, Prince of Wales visit a temple on the fourth day of their 12 day official tour visiting Egypt, Saudi Arabia and India, on March 23, 2006 in Siwa, Egypt. The visits provide an opportunity to support the UK's international contribution and profile, with key themes to promote better understanding and tolerance between faiths, supporting environmental and conservation initiatives, and encouraging sustainable employment and training opportunities for young people.

Not the best look of Camilla IMO. Though I do like the umbrella. Very victorian. Not a fan of her hat either.
