I tried to post a comment several times but I think my iOS dislikes Blogspot's comments platform (oh no!). <br /><br />I agree with Stephanie's suggestions of an in-depth series on Meghan's style and fashion. I'm really interested in how her style will evolve over the future, as she perhaps finds more freedom to return to more casual looks? I think there is a smart way to approach forecasting her smart casual wear as well (<a href="https://tomandlorenzo.com/2020/03/meghan-markle-in-scanlan-theodore-and-preen-royal-watch-fashion/" rel="nofollow">Tom & Lorenzo came in hard with smart analysis about her crinkled terracotta Preen dress</a>). <br /><br />I'd love to also incorporate jewelry into the mix. How about a post on her wardrobe of charms and apotropaic symbols, from motifs like the hamsa the evil eye to protective materials, like turquoise and crystal? (I believe there's a LOT of fodder here, especially looking to the charms article in the Vogue "Forces for Change" issue). <br /><br />Thanks so much for keeping it positive. Not all of your fellow royal watchers are baying for internecine blood. If anything, the COVID-19 crisis underscores most people's wish to support one another. <3 Stay safe, please, Charlotte! All the best to you and your family (both real and virtual!).

One of the things I like about Meghan is that she has a definite, go-to style and palette but with subtle variations to keep it interesting. That's something I'm personally working to build in my own wardrobe and would love to see those types of items grouped together if that is something others are interested in as well.<br /><br />Thank you for poling the group and for being willing to keep us occupied, Charlotte! -Stephanie, Chicago, USAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-88799320936902522282020-03-21T18:00:18.509+00:002020-03-21T18:00:18.509+00:00Agree--I'd love to see a round up of her more ...Agree--I'd love to see a round up of her more subtle jewelry (more fitting for most of us) rather than her show-stoppers. I have loved all of the dainty pieces Meghan wears and layers together, as well as the deeply personal meanings behind them. I also would love a recap of those brands. I've become a huge fan of Missoma and Edge of Ember because of her. They have a lot of jewelry that I find meaningful as well. <br /><br />Charlotte, thank you for all you have done and will continue to do to lift our spirits in these hard times. Here in Chicago, we are now sheltering in place. Unfortunately, I have to go to the hospital daily for a non-COVID medical situation and to see how this is impacting healthcare workers and those who were ill long before coronavirus is really depressing and alarming (in addition to those suffering directly from the virus). I am so grateful to the nurses, doctors, office staff, phlebotomists, pharmacists, and technicians who are keeping us safe at great personal risk. I make a point to look them each in the eye and thank them for being there but that is a small drop compared to what they are giving me. I'm thinking about bringing hand-written thank-you notes with me to future appointments (inspired by Meghan herself, as well as my Southern mother :).<br />-StephanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-48372694298389198842020-03-21T14:50:46.777+00:002020-03-21T14:50:46.777+00:00Their updated messages continue to post on sussexr...Their updated messages continue to post on sussexroyal.com ( if no Instagram account, just click the bottom icon on their home page to access their Instagram posts posts.Anon15noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523822918879524553.post-32036621468941885442020-03-21T07:43:54.769+00:002020-03-21T07:43:54.769+00:00Charlotte I posted on your other blog but as a US ...Charlotte I posted on your other blog but as a US ER doctor I ask readers to donate unused N95 masks, unused reusable respirators or filters.
