  1. Sublime Charlène dans cette robe noire sur laquelle elle porte un élégant manteau blanc aux lignes épurées ; look parfait avec les bottes ainsi que les gants. Est-ce que je vois Stéphanie avec des chaussures de sport ??

    What else can I say about Pss Charlene?
    Whatever the clothes, the fit, the cut, the design , the colour, she always looks like a human gorgeous statue dressed with excellent class, taste and subtle elegance.
    All these qualities are inner born in a wearer, there's nowhere one can buy them.
    Her smile , happiness and good health are a joy to see.

      You are so right. These qualities cannot be bought and some never manage to acquire them no matter how much they try. Charlene is super elegant.

    Princess Charlene looks marvelous in the winter white coat and black ensemble. Such elegant simplicity needs no further accessories or bright colors. She brings light just with her sweet smile.

  8. Wow, this ensemble looks really sophisticated, beautiful in its simplicity. I don't know if she uses a bit more makeup lately, maybe yes, but whatever it is, she looks smashing. (GM)

    Just a thought.
    I believe that a look is like a symphony orchestra, it' all about melting sounds coming from different instruments.
    The blending possibilities vary, going from a good to a sublime overall execution.
    Fashion- wise, the physique du role and class are essential requirements.
    Here Charlene has hit the high notes , that's surely a higher level ' performance' - so as to say- but she knows how to get even higher than this.
    That happens when she wears her fabulous evening gowns imo.
    What an inspirational lady she is!

      Oh, you know, @ Deadeggs, I' ll never make it out, I mean, why black is so ostracized on this platform?
      It's one of the key words of the fashion bible.
      Black is the colour of elegance par excellance, of the night, of mystery, of the unknown, of half said words, of drama, of expectations...and of seduction!
      Everthing can be conveyed through black and unfortunately, yes, It Is also the colour associated with death and mourning.
      I think one should never cling to this obsession black=funerals, though.
      maybe this obsessive association abides in minds not used to wearing black on other occasions!
      I mean...ehm...very earthly yummy ones!🤭😉
      Pity, I wish these sad people could experience the huge potential of black clothes...and ...ehmmm... of black underwear too!
      Naughty lady, no??🤭😉😉
      That's just what I really think.
      I cannot even conceive a wardrobe lacking black pieces.
      I would tell some sad women lingering on this blog all day long:
      " Hey, do you know what impact black and red clothes have on a man' s mind?
      Even wearing black sunglasses can make the difference sometimes.
      Just put the black potential to the test and, you, sad women, won't be back here in tears and with just funerals on your minds but with loads of joy and a relaxed mood!"
      Ok, I' m gonna stop the naughty side of me now, enough said.
      😉😂👋

    4. About black:
      In a traditional symphony orchestra both male and female musicians usually wear black. It has also been THE colour of court dress in 17th century Spain and late 18th century Sweden.
      There can be personal preferences not wearing black. I was 12 years old when my father died. At that time the tradition dictated that "sorrow dressing" was obligatory: 3 months only black, the next 3 also grey and white were allowed, even children over a certain age. After that I never wore black. It took several decades before I started to experiment it. But I never said to other people that they should not wear black. My "black" has been dark navy. By the way, black is a "bad colour" near my face.

      @Anonymous starring as Margot

      You know, I do wish I could give you a feedback based on your comment 17/11/23 at 07:27 and I guess you' re just craving for my reply.
      Fact is that you did not catch the meaning of my comparison fashion- symphony orchestra, as simple as that.
      Neither musicians/ royals in the past wearing black nor your habits related to using black clothes were any matter of discussion in my previous comment.
      I think you and me are moving on two totally different levels of significance as always.
      I believe that loss and sorrow following the death of dear ones must never become a pretext to hate a colour or positive attitudes towards life shown by other people , particularly beautiful women.
      Mourning abides in one's heart only, garments being pure form and saying nothing at all.
      That's just sticking to imposed traditions.
      Anyway, old fashioned habits and personal experiences have nothing to do with royal or not royal ladies wearing black out of their personal taste and fashion sense.
      They should be commented on only if and when commentators possess an essential modicum of fashion sense and personal elegance themselves, be it in their bodies, demeanors and manners.
      If all this is lacking , some commenters had better keep their unpleasant/snide remarks on beautiful women wearing black and dark colours to themselves.

  14. On another Royal site (French), where the critics can be tough, they give Princess Charlene a 100% positive and glowing vote.
    Words such as sublime, class, elegance, magnificent.
    T’was a pleasure to read their comments.
    Bravo chère Princess Charlene.

      Yes, all compliments and positive comments are absolutely well deserved.
      Charlene has the unparalleled ability of flying high with minimal super chic and classy pieces.
      No embellishments, no emblazoned clothes , essential jewellery, solid contrasting colours on a marble- like body structure.
      Just a touch of daring and descreetly seductive class sometimes like the black nail polish shown in one of the previous posts about her.
      And that feminine cold platinum blonde hair shade, which is the best finishing touch.
      Sheer perfection.
      A bit like blending ice and fire.
      That's what I sometimes choose to do myself when combining pieces accessoires and makeup together.
      I call it classy soft intriguing.

  15. Fürstin Charlene leuchtet für den gesamten Palast wie wunderschön! Ich habe mich über den Fürsten einmal mehr wieder zu wundern, es gibt doch so viele feine Stoffe es wäre von Vorteil würde er mehr auf seine Sakkos und Mäntel achten. -Dorothe-

  16. This is another ‘wow’ moment from Pss Charlene. Something of late has changed, and she is absolutely glowing. She seems happy relaxed and contented, and it’s showing in her countenance! It’s good to see. Bea

  17. De toutes les reines et princesses en exercice, princesse Charlene est celle, à mes yeux, qui affiche la plus grande classe. Elle est élégante de la tête aux pieds. Je ne comprends pas les personnes qui s'offusquent ou s'objectent à ce qu'elle s'affiche préférablement en noir et blanc, si ce sont ces couleurs qui la font rayonner. Lorraine (Rose)

  18. Princess Charlene looks just brilliant. The black dress with the cream/winter white is stunning. I like Princess Caroline's pink jacket and, it may just be the lights, it looks as if there's some colour in her hair. Princess Stephanie looks good too. I love the way the two sisters continue to support their brother
