The coat is nice though the hat is awful.
Well... Charlene looks great in a fierce 'fashion mag editorial' way in this clinging pantsuit and with her dramatic vamp make up, but this means at the same time that she looks quite wrong for the function and role she's supposed to have.
Quite a disappointment... The dress looks unfinished, like a sample from the pattern cutter before the real work on a gown starts; without any detailing, it's not understated and elegant, but unimaginative and bland..
Charlene in white/creme at the opera as part of the National Day celebrations this evening - nice!

In all White and Red from her hair to her Snow White make up to her feet, it's also a bit like she's a guest on her way to a posh costume party who decided to come dressed as The Flag of Monaco.
Any detail of interest, particularly jewelry, might have helped, but this is just nondescript. Even the jacket in cream provides no appeal when worn over white - there's neither a contrast nor a match.
Looks like Charlene is wearing the wrong sash of the Order, too - the men's wide version instead of the ladies' narrow one.
Charlene and Caroline both looked wonderfully regal in the evening.
But whoever advised Charlene to wear that hat at Mass today is not a friend. Just like the pale pink one yesterday, the navy cap today made her look like a pinhead.
Her shoulders are simply too large and her hair too short and her head too small in relation for her to successfully pull it off.
Must be Akris!The white dress is very elegant and sophisticated, however I hate the jacket.
Seems the whole evening outfit is Akris, unfortunately.Must be Akris!
However I didn't think Charlene looks anything regal in the evening. The coat is ugly and reminds me of a potato sack.
I find many people fashionable (so to speak) or dressed nice / appropriate. Charlene is not one of them. She had some nice clothes but, sadly, she has been going down in her fashion choices lately. I don't like what Charlene is wearing lately and I do not find most of her outfits appropriate for occasions she wears them for.
... The female version of the sash would have been more elegant though IMO. ...

Princess Charlene wearing a very elegant dress for this year's National Day in Monaco, November 19, 2012. I would have chosen another hat, but nevertheless she looked lovely:
