LIZ JONES: Don't ATTACK Kate Middleton for wearing modest jewellery

What's that mantra about glass houses and not throwing stones? Well, yesterday, the sound of shattering glass was deafening when Suzy Menkes, latterly of Vogue online, lobbed one at Kate.

i might feel this but im way too polite and loyal to ever say it out loud

Kate labelled a 'disappointment' by former Vogue editor

Suzy Menkes, 79, from Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, made the scathing comment about Kate Middleton, 41, on the latest episode of her podcast Creative Conversations.

Not read the articles as I don't really care what others think of her - the PoW is very much her own person, and I salute her for that.

MY take on it, is that she’s being sensitive to things being tough in the UK and is avoiding conspicuous displays of wealth when doing day time engagements.

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

we did wish HM a happy birthday this week didnt we ?

i know they are the usual but ive grown to kind of love them

i think you are right
maybe we here are the exception
i feel quite cheered up when i see any of the royal ladies from any royal house wearing their big guns or any inherited beauty
i always feel really happy if i see CP Mary wearing that tiara she brought herself

just to be clear here, i only go to the express to see the pictures !

Princess Kate's 'cheap' taste in jewellery explained as part of her strategy

The Princess of Wales has been criticised for some of her jewellery choices recently, as she often matches high-street earrings with her outfits.

Queen Letizia of Spain joined King Felipe VI yesterday to inaugurate the Royal Collections Gallery at the Royal Palace in Madrid

a bracelet would have just finished this outfit off IMHO

another pix from the flower show

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

well at least the husband wears jewlery

on holiday at Saint Tropez

making news here in NZ now

The real reason the Princess of Wales wears 'cheap' jewellery

Catherine has been described as ‘a disappointment’ for wearing high street jewellery – but is it all part of her strategy.

I wonder if she takes them off every night and re-stacks every morning...

 

[AGBF]

I LOVE Caroline's layered necklaces and stacked bangles!

I do, too. I hadn't seen a photo of her wearing them. I think the look is exquisite.

 

[AGBF]

She should have taken a note from Coco Chanel and removed one piece before she left home. She's over jeweled IMO

I disagree. I just looked at Queen Camilla's wrist and when I saw Caroline's jewelry juxtaposed with Camilla's, I thought that Caroline knew what she was doing. Camilla's wrist was a mish-mash of styles and colors. It looked as if she had just gone into her jewelry box and decided to put on all the thin couturier brand bracelets she found. Caroline stuck to plain gold. I found it simple and elegant. (I adore Camilla, by the way. I just didn't like that bracelet combination. Why on earth would she wear a VCA bracelet? Everyone else wears one.)
