November 29
Guillaume, Stephanie, and Charles visited Luxembourg Bazaar at LuxExpo
They attended the presentation and the third signing session of her book "A Sovereign Love" in the Luxembourg International Bazaar at Luxexpo the Box.

The book was written by her and Stephane Bern on the occasion of this year's 40th wedding anniversary of Luxembourg's Grand Ducal couple.

Oh, now that he's walking, I think he's upped his cuteness  by a factor of 10.

Lovely family of three.

I wouldn't have thought it possible, but you're right. As he gets more confident and interactive with his surroundings it's going to be so much fun seeing his personality develop. I detect a bit of sass already, I hope I'm right because he's going to need it and besides it's adorable.

...I know of a darling little 18 month old that would be a perfect match for this darling boy. lol

Steph’s hair looks nice and she has a lovely smile that reaches her eyes. Also, I believe she could’t dress well if her life depended on it.

I co-sign this to the Nth degree.

If the fate of the world ever hung on Steph putting together a good outfit on her own, then we should all put our affairs in order and get ready to meet our maker.

Henri needs to get her a stylist NOW! This is not negotiable, it is a necessity.

Well, maybe we just need to accept that some of the royals aren't gonna meet our exacting standards. Victoria is always going to need to have her hair out of her face, Stephanie will always be a schlumpy dresser, and Max will always add some detail that is over the top, sartorially speaking.  But each of these women has a mega-kilowatt smile and they seem to put people at ease and actually to enjoy doing their jobs.

Steph will never be a fashion plate but she needs to look presentable which she does not currently.

A stylist will help make her look more polished and take the pressure off with putting clothes together if it is something she has absolutely no interest in.

I have come to think that she is stubborn and refuses any help. She has several elder sisters who all can dress rather well and who must cringe at Steph's sight. I cannot imagine that none of them has offered her dressing advice.

Worst of all is the fact that she wears those pants of hell at every single engagement. Sure, it is a personal issue of mine, but if a person shows up in the same piece of garment day after day, I can't help but wondering about her/his personal hygiene, sorry.

Her overall impression is that of a lazy, phlegmatic couch potato who can only be bothered to roll off her couch when there is an art related event. I guess that's why she looks so much older than she really is.

Look at the two ladies on the right in the group photo. They look so much more dynamic and professional than good old Steph.

To my surprise, I did a mental run-through for “who are the best-dressed royals” and Camilla is close to the top of my list!

I rather agree with you on this. IMO it goes also for more or less all the Seniors of the BRF. Not that I always share their sense of style, but they usually show up to royal events put together. The Queen is a very special case, of course, the Royal Lady right to the last pearl. The late Grand Duchess Joséphine-Charlotte was of that generation as well. The current one, well, not so much IMO.
