King Charles III of the United Kingdom

I like those hats!... takes the focus off the face...

Can't imagine where I would store those things at home. I don't have big closets.

I think Camilla looks lovely.

[Oxynia]

I'm watching because Mr. Oxynia had to work this morning and I wanted to see all the hats...I usually enjoy that part of these big royal affairs (oops, sorry, wrong choice of words!).

I rather liked Camilla's hat from the civil ceremony but have to admit that when she arrived at Windsor Castle with that wreath of twigs on her head, my first thought was she looked like an Olympic medal winner from the Athens Games...hee! She took the gold medal in fug, for sure. Poor thing, you can dress her up but she still looks like a big ol' horsey frump.

The officiating minister has no emotion. One could imagine that he would rather be anywhere but there...

Camilla looks okay in some of those camera shots from the back and from faraway. The dress she wore at the blessing was pretty and appropriate for her age, situation, etc. The hay in the hair didn't really work. I guess hay gets stuck in your hair when you stick your whole head in the feedbag.

I don't know if this is true in Canada, but CNN is running hours of live coverage on the wedding. Also Fox News.

Aw... they look so nice... and they look perfect for each other. They look like they belong together.

Charles better be happy now...

[LurkerNan]

Yum, look at those strapping young men! That sight clears my brain of some of the Camilla fug.

I really think that hairdo of hers is doing her no justice. It's like she's trying for the big puffy hair of the eighties, but all it does is make her overall look that much harsher. And the blonde color is so obviously grey trying to be passed off as blond with a wash. She'd look better with darker hair.

But she's old, and so is Charles, so God bless them. Let them be old together and happily ensconsed in their weird blue blooded traditions together. They deserve some peace, and the kids aren't complaining, so it's all good. Besides, we all come from broken homes anyway, this makes the boys that much more endearing to the rest of us.

I saw that her ex husband was one of scant thirty people who actually got to attend the wedding. Proof to me that he's known about their relationship from the beginning and approved.

I love the hats! Camilla's daughter's hat was my favourite.
I watched the coverage on CNN and Anderson Cooper was cracking my shit up with his obsession with the hats.

Nice to see the Princess Royal in a good mood.

I thought Camilla looked lovely. Both dresses were very nice.
The Queen didn't look too impressed did she?

[Brookie]

The commentators on NBC this morning were saying that if the Queen lives to be roughly the same age as her mother and rules the entire span, Chuck will be well into his 80's by the time he assumes the throne. Wills will be into his 50's. Britain is doomed to be ruled by old geezers.

I actually think Camilla looks surprisingly good -- elegant and understated. I agree that she shouldn't have gone for the hay in the hair, though.

Is that Charles's wedding ring on his pinky? Why does he wear it on that finger? Is that some royal tradition or was the ring sized incorrectly? (sudden swelling of fingers due to nerves?)
