    Meghan uses designer brands and expensive clothes as a facade of importance. She won't or can't prove her significance through her actions because she doesn't have a service heart so she has to wear things that make her seem important without putting in the work. This is why Flawless Catherine does the opposite, she wears reasonably priced clothes, even rewears outfits, because she knows she has nothing to prove, her actions speak for themselves.

    We can see the evidence of Catherine taking advice onboard as her style and confidence have have grown over the years. Honestly, Kate can definitely rock a big hat. Her features are strong enough, and her stature elegant enough, to not be diminished.

    I bet that William wakes up everyday and thanks god (or whoever he thanks) that he had the good sense to choose Catherine as his wife. When they’re together I always feel like that’s what his facial expression is giving. Like he adores her which I love to see. His face gives happy golden retriever puppy to me. It’s cute and she’s gorgeous of course.

My favourite small hat is the one she wore to Prince Philip's funeral. I bawled quite a bit at the end when you gave that touching tribute to the family and their grief. Thank you. We do still miss Her Majesty the Queen terribly. She was such a steady hand at the helm for such a long time. Thank you so much for your sensitivity❤🇬🇧

She always looks so polished no matter what the occasion.

I cannot wait to see your review of the DoS latest outing in the beige ensemble.

    Beebs, this was a lovely video, and it ended on such a genuine caring tone. The Royal Family has endured so much since 2018, particularly in the last three years. And they have done so with grace. HRH The Princess of Wales has matured beautifully, not least because she appears to be an intelligent, thoughtful woman, a good mother and spouse. We all feel the loss of the grace, integrity, and humour that was HM Queen Elizabeth II. HRH The Princess of Wales does well in following on from HM Queen Elizabeth.

    Re: the leaf brooch earrings -- they are actually part of a set with the brooch. I found a couple of photos online of the late queen wearing the earrings with the brooch on one occasion. I believe she received the set from the government of South Korea in 1999, when she was there over her birthday. She gave Catherine the brooch on a lifetime loan several years ago, and I'm assuming the earrings, as well, but Catherine never wore them before Remembrance Sunday.

    Catherine understands that *you* wear the clothes, the clothes *should not* wear you. That's exactly what M looks like: the clothes are wearing her. Even now, she doesn't have her clothes tailored. Catherine knows the art of subtle understatement, while M seems to be "the more the better". But I think the *biggest* difference is having a professional help you. M has infamously refused any help, and it shows. PS: I love Catherine in any hat because she does a good job choosing what's appropriate for her outfit and the occasion, though I don't care for the ones with turned down brims on her; they seem to pull her face down.

As of yet, the shorter have not been worn since her death. The earrings Catherine is wearing are from the same demi-parure of Queen Elizabeth's Diamond and Pearl Leaf brooch.

    As an artist the color black has undertones depending on how it’s mixed via dyes. Blue, yellow, red can be seen as undertones when you try to pair many blacks together from different sources. It is why if I buy a black suit jacket, I will buy the matching pants and skirt at the same time so the blacks do not clash. If I wear a black coat, I will take it into natural light to see if the undertones differ and even will flash photo the outfit with it to check. Because then it could come off as blue-black, yellow-black or red-black. 🤷‍♀ Fabric textures can also make the color look different due to how light hits it. White is also a problem because of so many variations. But this is just my opinions. 🤷‍♀

    Thanks for this video, I really enjoyed it, for me Megan's first participation in the Remembrance events was my first culture clash, "something's wrong, what's wrong? Ohh Harry NEEDS to talk to her" moment, the dress she was wearing was utterly inappropriate the Festival of Remembrance is in essence a funeral / memorial service, being peculiarly British this means there is music to rouse the spirit and break your heart, pomp & ceremony to make you feel that it's all worth it in the end and humour because if you can't have a laugh, what's the point? (the year of the musical plumbing was hilarious) and here is The Meg when we were all still welcoming her with open arms in a sleeveless deep V necked dress in NOVEMBER!! I don't know what the weather in California is in November but in London it is 'Orible! there are over 5000 seats in the Albert Hall and not another bare set of arms or shoulders in the place, sorry to be prudish, but we don't do that at funerals / memorials!
    However, having something of a poetic sense of justice TBH here in 2023 after all their shenanigans over the past few years I'm glad The Meg wore the boatneck dress to Westminster Abbey, because BOY would she have paid for it, nothing does draughts quite like a medieval abbey in November, she must have been absolutely frozen by the time she got home, appropriateness is not the only reason why Catherine is always wrapped up when she goes there (and I bet there were some substantial foundation garments under the coat as well!)
