Oh I remember being shot to pieces ( not on here though ) for saying I didn`t like the name Charlotte when Kate and William had their daughter. It`s a name I`ve never liked nor ever will like and funnily enough of all of the people who shot me down, I think only one had actually named their own child Charlotte so I guess they didn`t like it either !
Back on subject, I never liked Princess Di`s dress, loved Kate Middleton`s, absolutely hated Sarah Ferguson`s, liked the style of Ali K`s dress but I think it would have looked better in a different colour, not because I have objections to 2nd or 3rd time brides wearing white but because I genuinely thought a blush pink or apricot colour would have suited her better.
Weddings and wedding dresses are like Marmite, you love them or you don`t love them and women have been eyeballng and commenting on other womens wedding dresses for centuries and always will do. As long as the bride loves it then that`s all which matters, it is`t up to the rest of us to get upset on her behalf.
It reminds me of a friend of mine who married for the 2nd time in her 40`s and her parents hadn`t seen her dress before the day. She arrived wearing a white short length halter neck dress trimmed with white faux fur and white knee length boots. her Mother actually cried, not with joy but because she hated the dress so much. My friend laughed, she simply didn`t care, hugged her Mum better, she realised her 70 odd year old Mum`s taste would never match her own and just accepted that her alternative style of outfit plus her chest, arms, back completely covered in tattoos ( hence the halter neck to show off the artwork ) and her biker husband equally as tattooed and wearing an equally unusual outfit would probably be disliked by half the guests at least.
What makes the world go round is the fact we're all different and like different things (we all know that) you shouldn't be shot down for not liking the Royals (who I don't like either.........aw! off with her head!) baby's name, that's just ridiculous, you're entitled to freely express your opinion.
