By the obsession with Celebrity, I don't meant the Beatrice and Eugenie should try and emulate it..not at all.I am just saying that is how the press act, so they show the girls as always going out, etc., when for all we know they are spending 90% of their time in the library. They are usually in dresses as opposed to jeans, and some of the styles are not the best, I agree, but the pie crusted collars of the early eighties, the shoulder pads of the mid eighties, the bell bottoms and polyester of the seventies- they all look pretty ridiculous now. I personally love the thirties tea dresses, forties suits,fifties Grace Kelly look and the sixties fun but lady like dresses. But that is just me!
I have often wondered on some of the people fergie chooses to hang out with (she always has the celeb of the moment) and Andrew is so naive he doesn't know what is good for him. At least the girls are going to university, the first females royals so closely related to the monarch to do so. They should be given some credit for that!
