WHAT THE HELL did caro do to her hair, it looks scraped back with OMG are those tiny BRAIDS! or is it crimped.......either way GIRL GIRL GIRL get a grip, you are the last hope for elegance or style and you're going downhill fast DON"T give the crack smoking sugah loonies any room to talk or snipe about you. i repeat WTH!!!!! i'm all for offbeat or eccentric, but this outfit and hair are in dementia territory JMOJMO Sometimes when I see Caroline with a hairstyle or clothes that just seem a little off, I wonder if she lets Alex help her dress for the event and just has some fun. Caro can do much better with her hair. LOL, Countess! Doesn't this look like a fun group? The only one smiling is Albert which I take as full confirmation that he is an idiot and is clueless as to what is going on around him. Caroline looks like she wishes that Scotty would beam her back up to the Mother Ship. and Charlene! For someone who has steamrolled over a whole country to get her 'destiny' and 'tiara', she is one unhappy chipmunk. I also agree that she is either drugged or maybe so botoxed that she just has a blank expression. No smiles, no signs that she is in any way happy. Monaco needs to demand their money back on this flagship that they bought; it's a failure.

I think she had some additional work done on her lips -- or something else on her face because she does look different. She definitely doesn't look happy nor does Caroline.
What the hell was the purpose of this event? My basic philosophy is that when you need to invoke the name of someone other than yourself in order to get attention then that is indicative of something being very wrong.

Fashion Week in NYC is all about Kate Middleton and her much covered up ladylike wardrobe. This of course explains why Charlene is wearing more conservative clothes lately. What's good for Kate must be good for Charlene.

In fact they opened this event during NYC fashion week and all you see is the large photo of Grace over shadowing Charlene and even Caroline.

I'm not a fan of Caroline's dress or her hair. It appears that since her brother has a wife, her lifestyle and fashion choices may be more for herself and not for her former position. I'm wondering if Caroline's un-glamorous fashion choices are intentional, to let her new sister-in-law take on the role of the "glamorous" new princess. Caroline once said in a Harper's Bazaar interview, that she had to dress as a princess, and she was not free to dress as she wanted because so many people had expectations of her and of her role and what she should look like. I'd imagine that she is beginning to enjoy her new life, new freedom.

What's good for Kate must be good for Charlene. OK, thinking the above statment must at present be the main duty of brain-cell # 1. brain-cells #2 and #3 obviously are idle / on maintenance because if they had done a countercheck one might have realized that it doesn't work for half a dozen reasons. fully agree with your comments about the peaky boobs that indeed are catching (hurting) one's eye instantly and also with the dowdy 50's housewife look. was that intended to be an hommage to grace kelly's stardom in that decade? if so - another total miss. wonder if grace is turning in her grave like a drill. just an idea: since she also seems to have gained HEAVILY round her waist within just 8 weeks after the wedding plus the protruding and way too enlarged bosoms ..... she either had crash-dieted for looking slimmer in her wedding gown or could these be signs for being preggers? just my 2 pennies. as for caroline: aweful gown that looks kimono-ish to me plus an awful hairdo. what happened to her once so excellent sense of style? she certainly cannot hide her negative sentiments for her new sister-in-law - and maybe even doesn't make any efforts to hide them. what a sad face for an event that should honor her mother but in the final end only exploits the biggest and most valuable asset the principality ever had. i dare to predict that they will continue exploiting - since she was their one and only superstar ever! you can't attract the masses with cheap copies.

I may be in the minority but I think that Caroline looks tres chic! I agree. I don't like her hair (back), but overall she looks very chic. Caroline always had an unique style, and as she is getting older I can see that she is not only becoming more and more extravagant but a bit eccentric as well. Only women with a style can pull off something like this. WC, on another hand, is unable to look good in a "classic" dress. To me she always look like a cut-board picture being dragged around...the only difference is that they change her dress for different occasions.

This video is so telling. WC looks lost and totally out of place...like this is her first time out. It almost looked like she is disoriented. Her unhappiness was so evident as well as Albert's annoyance with her. He managed to fake smile throughout the event, but when addressing WC you could see that he is annoyed by her and was directing her like she is a six years old. I wonder how long he will be able to do that. However he deserved all of this, and now after she made him look like a fool and some kind of mean, abuser husband on his own wedding day, he has no choice but to tolerate her crap and fake smile. Also, this video shows that it is possible to snap a few "good looking and presentable" pictures of two of them, but when you look at the video and in live, you get a totally different "picture". That is why any one who had seen them in person doesn't believe in Monaco's fairy-tale.

Look at those man hands! And that plastic inhuman like face! Albert is stark raving mad if he thinks that this woman will boost his country's image. All Charlene has and will do is shop and wear her huge collection of expensive clothing and jewelry - for the sugar loonies to drool over.

What's with her cone boobs? Is she trying to channel Madonna from the 80's? More and more she's looking like a deer in headlights. The more conservative clothes are because people are talking about Kate Middleton's lady-like style and Charlene want's a piece of the action. JMO.

Charlene is so hideous. And my God, to think that i've been reading that some people think that she is pregnant already! Seriously? With that masculine body she can get pregnant? LOL

Very interesting, Caroline's gown choice for this event and also for this year's Red Cross Ball. Charlene is front and center with expensive jewels and gown, aiming for the Grace Kelly cool chic look. Caroline shows up with gowns that on anyone else would look like an off the wall choice, but only she can pull it off looking at ease, chic eccentric, the grand dame of Monaco. And by the way, her gown becomes the talk of the event right? Caroline has been through many fashion phases in her life, had the best of the best to choose from. Perhaps that can become boring and old. Eccentric and unique must be more fun than glamorous haute couture.

I like Caros dress and also the changes she has made to the one from the runway. Not a dress that everyone can wear, but it suits Caro and is more interesting then what anyone else wore that night.

Maybe there's someone telling Caroline: we have a new princess now, try for a look that doesn't outshine her. So she chooses eccentric. But, Caroline steals the show anyway, anytime.
Btw, Charlene's hand...she usually has very thin fingers. Her hand looks fat. Pregnancy treatment? hormones? Maybe she is carrying a little bitchlene or a little Al?

her hands have old skin. They look at least 50. Looks like she did not look after herself whilst swimming. I wonder whether she washed after swimming or whether she thought e spent the entire day in the water so didn't need to....
