I nearly shrieked out loud at my desk when I saw what they did with the paintbrush and those gorgeous designs. Noooooooooo!!!!!
I remember seeing news reports of monks coming to some major metro areas for festivals, making these amazing designs for a few days, and then sweeping it all away. I get the concept, but it's so sad when they're gone
Today's itinerary: a 5-6 hour hike to a monastery.
I hope Kate wears proper shoes and not hiking wedges lol
Fashion boots, and skinny jeans. And a linen blouse.
That's a nicer outfit than I'm wearing to work today.
The climb was 5 miles, 1500 feet high. They stopped halfway through to pose for pics, spin prayer wheels, and buy souvenirs (small bronze tiger, and a pair of earrings):
Talked to reporters about the climb, and about missing their kids and talking to them while they're away:

Jesus, right? Do you know what my hair would look like after a 5 mile hike? DO YOU? I swear she has small animals attend to her hair and clothing like a Disney princess. It's the only explanation.
Here's a nice photo from yesterday, which the King of Bhutan posted on his Facebook page:
Their Majesties and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge light butterlamps in the Grand Kuenrey of Tashichhodzong, as nuns from Thimphu sing the 'Guru Soledep prayer.

(and, OMG, how beautiful is the Queen??)
The king and queen are both impossibly gorgeous. Their son is going to be one handsome little man.
Evening reception for British people living in Bhutan. (ETA: Kensington Palace says it's a reception for Bhutanese people who had previously lived or studied in the U.K., and also for British people with strong ties to Bhutan.)
Beulah dress, with poppies (Bhutan national flower):
Better pic:
Tomorrow they will go back to India to visit the Taj Mahal, as Diana, Princess of Wales did back in 1992:
Ack, I'm loving the pictures. This is a great thread
I'm loving all the colors!!!
Yes! THis makes me want to go to Bhutan even more. It's one of the few places DH said he would like to visit. I won't tell him about the dodgy airstrip though...

I was thoroughly impressed with how amazing she looked on the hike today. Flawless.
I'm really sad the tour ends tomorrow. The pictures from the Taj Mahal will be incredible, but I'll be sad not to see so many new outfits. I really loved her looks on this tour - it was a fun break from the usual coat dresses.

No amount of ANYTHING would help me look like that at any point during a five-mile hike, but she did have her hairdresser and stylist on the hike with her. As one does.

The Taj Mahal dress is perfect! I want it! I love Kate's clothes, but they normally aren't my style as I'm a very casual person. But this dress is perfect and I would totally wear it! I love it!!!
And William and Kate finally coordinate. Perfect for the photo op!
I love her dress for the taj mahal. It's so perfect and just gorgeous.
I'm happy to see they sat on the bench, there was so much speculation about it and people putting so much stress on the moment but then I read something on twitter that supposedly someone close to William said the bench/that photo don't actually have that much significance to him. Like, it's a picture of his mum but not a picture or moment that he really draws on when he thinks of her so really it's everyone else who is putting all this significance on this moment and not William himself. So with that it sort of makes sense, it's a nice moment for them and it's a new photo on that bench which people can think of instead of thinking of the Diana photo.
So, what are everyone's favorite looks for Kate from this tour? There were a lot of great moments.
I love the Taj Mahal dress, I love the dress she put on the first day when they went to play cricket, I like her outfit from the safari, and I love both the long red and blue dress and the green lacy dress from day 3.
I didn't love the white dress with the breast flaps and I'm not crazy about the multi colored Toru Burch dress but that's probably just because it's nms.

My favorites were the dress from the Taj Mahal, the Temperly two piece dress from the Queens Birthday party, and the jade lace dress.

Yes, these were my favorites as well. Even MH agreed that the Taj Mahal dress was beautiful.
