Looks warm comfortable suite.
ReplyDeleteYes, it’s winter in South Africa.
Yes indeed. Some pictures are not quite good, the lighting? inadequate make up?
DeleteI like the coat.
Ummmm... her face is shining...her hair is messy and maybe greasy..and that ...whatever it is ...swallows her
ReplyDeleteFAIL
Oh and the tights and boots? Why? Odd!
ReplyDeleteI do not think they are odd at all. It is winter there and boots with tights are quite stylish.
DeleteShe looks homesick for her children.
ReplyDeletethe Pss of Monaco looks good. I do like the coat but she should have left the leggins and boots at home.She is in S Afrika for Nelson Mandela day. What a nice tribute to the Late President. She is very connected to her Homeland and to Monaco.
ReplyDeleteWell I don't get rid of the impression that she is more connected to South Africa!
DeleteNothing wrong with being connected to the country from which you come.
DeleteNot my favourite outfit and the princess looks tired, but beautiful as ever.
ReplyDeleteits her home town, same place charlize Theron was born.
ReplyDeleteBut what is she wearing! for warm weather and indoors !!
It's winter in S. Africa. Yes, it looks like too much inside, but we all feel the weather differently.
DeleteI think it will be winter in South Africa at the moment but why is the gorgeous Princess Charlene wearing a travel rug? Or is it a cot blanket?
ReplyDeleteHad to check, Johannesburg looks to be + 15 C.
DeleteYes, it's winter now. Perhaps she feels the chill more than others.
DeleteIt's midwinter in the southern hemisphere!
ReplyDeleteWhat is she wearing? For an official ceremony...
ReplyDeleteI like the coat (think it's Loro Piana) but I really don't like the pale grey boots. She needs a bit of powder although I'm sure the indoor lighting isn't helping.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is winter in South Africa, hence the coat.
You think it's Loro Piana? A wonderful brand. I own a pashmina (if that is the correct word) of them. Very very good quality in a beautiful blue colour.
DeleteYes, I think she's worn it or another similar coat of theirs. Hellen Electra has tracked down the model and added it to the photos.
DeleteOh yes! Thank you, Hellen, for the photo!
DeleteNice blanket.
ReplyDelete.-)
DeletePrincess Charlene of Monaco looks very beautiful, sophisticated and intelligent and improves the image of Monaco with Prince Albert.
ReplyDeleteAgree with you. I thought the lighting was a big problem and I also thought she might have been tired. She's always beautiful and a credit to Monaco and Prince Albert.
DeleteWe experience very cold winters in Southern Africa, its 6°Celsius right now.
ReplyDeleteThat is very cold winter? LOL When we here have very cold winter is more like - 35 C.
DeleteI wish the leading photo had shown her with the lapels in place. No wonder people think she looks odd - it isn't how it is normally worn. Nice to see her hair is a little longer. She does look very tired at this event - maybe not feeling well after a long trip?
ReplyDeleteWe are experiencing a very cold winter in South Africa this year and unlike Europe, we mostly don't have central heating inside buildings. We therefore tend to dress very warm inside. The princess is dressed appropriately for the circumstances here.
ReplyDeleteThe first thing I noticed was her boots. They are fabulous! I see some are not happy with her choice of pants, which are probably a warm ponte knit or something similar. She is wearing exactly what she should be wearing with the boots, a legging, and they fit perfectly. Her coat is beautiful and I know many women that would wear it with pride. I agree that her face is very shiny and probably needs some powder or a blotting paper. I notice that she doesn't wear much makeup now and her hair is not styled too often, instead keeping her look more natural. She is a natural beauty regardless.
ReplyDeleteBoots and leggings are very chic. Not crazy about the jacket, but appropriate for the weather.
ReplyDeleteShe can hardly move her face just a plastic smile. Charlene you don't need it just age gracefully.
ReplyDeleteweer even thuis ,leuk voor haar ,ze ziet er goed uit!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou do not need empathy to see that this women is sad !
