The Duchess of Edinburgh in blue in Paris yesterday:

and in white today:

The shoes worn on both days are a bit too clunky, I think it would have looked much better with different ones.

The Duchess of Edinburgh wore a great Erdem dress again today:

That is an interesting print, she looks great on that caramel color too. Is it my eyesight or did you notice her earrings are spiral seashells?

 

[Elly C]

I like the colour, the print and neckline, but I think the style, particularly the bodice section, stops this from being a ‘wow’ dress. I admire how she is still experimenting with her clothes and wears some lovely prints.
At first I thought the earrings resembled ice- cream cornets, but I’m sure you’re right and they are shells.

The yellow is nice but I'm not sure about the choice of hat or coat!

 

[Royalty Observer]

I big NO from me regarding the hat

Whilst I like the colours, the Duchess is usually a lot better put together than this. I hope this is not the start of a new fashion trend.

 

[An Ard Ri]

The outfit is not too bad but I'm not crazy about Sophie's hairstyle.

 

[togram]

Somehow the outfit is a mismatch and the hairstyle is horrendous.

 

[Elly C]

I like the colour of the blouse, but otherwise it’s very sloppy.
I would love to see her with a sharper haircut . She appears to have very fine, flyaway hair, so a structured style would maintain a more polished look.

Sophie at the Cornbury House International Horse Trials today, September 13 - I totally dislike the leather trousers, the rest is fine:

She should find a good hair stylist.

Agreed. The trousers are fine but not for a day at a horsing event. From the waist up she looks good!

 

[stunking]

The yellow dress is to busy for me and the hat and coat don't help. The horse outfit is mismatched.

The Duchess of Edinburgh in a nice print dress in Tanzania today, September 17:

[Elly C]

I quite like this print. It seems a good style for her too.

Yes that's a really lovely dress and print on Sophie!

A very pretty dress on day 2 in Tanzania today, September 18:

[An Ard Ri]

A lovely pretty floral look and a really smart hairstyle too!

I like the print - the colours really suit her. Yes, I think she generally looks better on formal, official engagements when she styles her swept back .

A beautiful flower print dress on day 3 of the visit today, September 19:

[Elly C]

She has worn some lovely dresses for this visit. The most recent is a gorgeous, rich shade. The styles are relatively unfussy and are flattering to her figure. Her hairstyle today is another success and makes her look very polished.

[Prinsara]

Sophie looked particularly good like that. Dress and hairstyle clicked.

 

[Hallo girl]

I have noticed Sophie has worn long sleeves and longer length dresses during this trip, do you think this is respect for her hosts or just coincidental. Or covering all bases.
