However, everything I read never revealed her specific shade though. I will say that their Backstage line, which is the one she was reported to have used according to her make-up artist friend, has a big range of colors so you will probably find something that suits you.

I'm glad Meghan got to have her activities scaled back its a lot for a pregnant person and at this time in the pregnancy slowing down is critical. Her royal given jewellery is lovely and her outfit was planned out very thoughtfully. The hat and hair and whole ensemble is stunning<br /><br />Thanks CharlotteMelissa Haftinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762480704325333762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-30632281153315956272018-10-23T15:43:16.652+01:002018-10-23T15:43:16.652+01:00She looks gorgeous.

She said when not working, she preferred to just use primer and concealer instead of a base foundation so that her freckles could show through. Not sure what she does now in royal life. Many brands such as Mac have a wide spectrum of shades now though and the consultants are really good at helping customers find their correct shade.

It’s a 737-800. There’s no First Class, only Business Class and Economy. The Business Class is only modest - 12 seats, and the rest of the aircraft is Economy. It wouldn’t have been refit as this plane is in regular service. My only thought is that they chartered this aircraft. I’ve read that she travelled to Fiji in her casual outfit. So, it looks like she did change on board in that teeny, tiny toilet. I still can’t believe I’ve traveled on a “Royal” plane. 😳😳. Although I did meet Prince Charles about 6 months before he met the then Lady Diana Spencer. I thought PC was SO good looking when I was introduced to him. I totally swooned at the 1977 PC 😍😍Dee, from Adelaide, Australia 🇦🇺noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-7716929264210121772018-10-23T10:55:15.243+01:002018-10-23T10:55:15.243+01:00Yes i love The history behind it the queen and ...Yes i love The history behind it the queen and prince philp it would ne nice if we will see them black and white Bluefirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649992037530958562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-77192022772490253802018-10-23T10:22:39.758+01:002018-10-23T10:22:39.758+01:00Thank you Charlotte for this beautiful post!

I love learning the history and significance of the various events of royal tours. I've particularly enjoyed reading about various elements of my own country that I either didn't know about or had forgotten about because it has been so long since I learnt it at school. <br />Fiji is going to bring a completely different dynamic to this trip compared to Australia, because of the connection to Queen Victoria you mentioned.<br />While I am enjoying getting royal tour updates from you (I'm not even bothering with news sources because you're so much quicker than them) I do hope there is a much deserved break in your future.Sharyn from AUSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-22713425953848371182018-10-23T09:52:28.839+01:002018-10-23T09:52:28.839+01:00Meghan looks beautiful and appropriate as she alwa...Meghan looks beautiful and appropriate as she always does. My grandfather was born in Fiji as the son of the British ambassador (many years ago 1916, I think). He always said the people there had music in their souls.<br />This tour makes me proud to be Australian. I love the way these two have been received and the way they have received us. <br />Well done Charlotte. This is s mammoth task, especially with the time difference.

Omg, my mother & I were excitedly watching their arrival in Suva & we weren’t disappointed :) My mother said it reminded her of when she went to see Prince Charles when Fiji gained independence in 1970. Shame about the wind & rain, though! (Suva is known as the ‘rainy’ side of the island & Nadi is the ‘dry/hot’ side). H&M looked very stylish upon their arrival...I first thought “oh, Meghan’s in white again...yawn!”, but on a second look, I really liked the dress & hat. And Harry’s spiffy suit was just the right touch for the warm & humid climate in Fiji. Hope they enjoy the local hospitality & can’t wait to see them at the state dinner.Kiwi Galnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-52978535600522288882018-10-23T07:56:01.730+01:002018-10-23T07:56:01.730+01:00I think that Meghan looks great.

I wanted to comment on Harry's attire. While he started with navy suits but whisked away his tie when his host didn't have one on. And now in a linen suit with the medals is surprising to me. This landing could call for the navy suit.<br /><br />Meghan looks lovely. I believe the ivory dress is completely on par. Can't wait to see a close of the bracelet that PC bought. Can't see it yet.<br /><br />Looking forward to these festivities. And of course what Charlotte's amazing blog will educate us on.
