Do you think mary and fred will attend the athen's olympic games that are being held in augest unless they are to busy attending to raoyal duties to attend the most importand event of the year?
And there isn't a right or wrong answer to this question and your options are more than welcome about this topic.
And augest is still a long way so anything can help to mary and fred during may 14 and the upcoming olympic games in augest . B)

This dress is actually the same dress she wore for her enagement dinner gala. And as far as I remember, this is only the fourth or so formal occasion Mary has attended with the royal family:Originally posted by ennyllorac@Jan 28th, 2004 - 8:25 pm
Is it me or does Mary keep wearing some shade of green to formals?

you don't tell me! did she really wear the same outfit on two functions in a short period?
I think perhaps she favours greens/ beige/ black/ beige-pink.... though I always thought the two green formal dresses were intentional because green is one of Australia's colours (green and gold, though you could never tell from the flag! )Is it me or does Mary keep wearing some shade of green to formals?
Yep, IMO that's the reason why she wore it.Originally posted by Jacqueline@Jan 29th, 2004 - 11:55 am
Perhaps she wore the shawl because she was wearing a familiar gown again so soon. Mary may have thought that a difference in her hair style and adding a shawl would perhaps take attentio away from the fact that it is the same dress that she wore soon after engagement announcement.
Oh, I hadn't thought of that! Could it indeed be that Mary intentionally wore a repeat ballgown in order to curry favor with the public? If so, she's more calculated than I'd thought!Originally posted by Gabriella@Jan 29th, 2004 - 11:46 pm
I agree with your comments one hundred percent. I too, did not care for the outfit at first, but it looks really good on her the second time around. It seems as if her tactic of wearing the same outfit twice has worked to her advantage. Having been seen at so few functions since her engagement was announced, she would definitely have to know that people would notice the fact that she had worn this outfit just a few months before. So I have to wonder, if this was a carefully planned tactic meant to make people think that she is not a shopaholic and is meant to make her more endearing to the public? Whatever the case, I think it worked will for her.
