    Susie, I think not a lot of women can claim to be as exquisite as Grace Kelly was. I’m not one for analyzing individual aspects of one’s features. I do find Princess Mary to be lovely and yes, well-groomed and stylish. If she is plain without make-up, then there is hope for the rest of us (similarly plain ones), yes?

    I think Mary’s coat is gorgeous due to its richness of colour. The coat is a nice straight cut with an injection of individuality through the use of the colour scheme. Overall, I think Mary’s looks however, are over rated. When you see a photo of her without make-up she is extremely plain. Her features are way over rated because for anybody who has a good eye and the ability to look beyond the image the tabloids are selling, Mary has a big bobble shape on the end of her protruding nose, big ears, a long face with a pointy witch like chin and a narrow forehead with ill shaped eyebrows. Indeed, I think the clothes she wears are so well chosen by her stylist that, along with her heavy make-up and hair dye, they compensate and dress up a very plain woman. She is probably a lovely person, I just get sick of the tabloids selling her as beautiful when she is well groomed rather than beautiful with exquisite features as Grace Kelly was.
