Catherine is a person who understands the importance of being part of a community. She comes in, she learns, she adjusts, she continues to grow. Unfortunately, some people resist and are repellent so they get bounced out.

Key difference is Catherine took advice while Megsy did NOT!!

Catherine didn’t always get it right. If you notice her early wardrobe there are some considerable missteps. What helped Catherine is that she was silent and had a warm demeanor that afforded her the benefit of the doubt. She learned and kept going until she struck a balance between tradition and modern dressing. Meghan came in hot and wasn’t ready for any criticism or change. She didn’t even want anyone to take credit for styling her. The lesson here is to be aware of your own shortcomings and the necessity of due process.

If Meghan Markle was sincere about being a working royal and committed to representing the RF, all of these faux pas regarding her dress and personal appearance would not be such an issue today. All of these issues would have improved in time, as she learned how to be royal. But, as we all know now, she never intended on staying and doing the job, or following the rules of dress and etiquette. And left to herself, she’s a mess. Being a Royal would have enhanced her not taken away who she was. We always become better people when we honestly serve others. She doesn’t appear to listen to good advice, even from a royal stylist. Thus, she is often the object of “what not to do” fashion lessons such as this one.

I believe that anyone can better themselves through education, observing others, learning from those to whose position in life or work one aspires. This does not mean rejecting one’s upbringing or heritage or regarding it as inferior. However, such a transition begins from a posture of humility and openness. Doing so can result in the difference between a gentleman and a cad or a lady and a tramp. Wonderful video, Ms Kelly, and as always, you look so lovely today.

Catherine makes all her outfits and appearances look SOOO effortless it's incredible, but I love how you covered it and highlighted these subtle differences. A lot of women aspire to look as elegant, effortless and put together as Catherine does and I love the little pieces of advice. And I love how you explained the importance of etiquettes in conveying messages and earning respect!

I’m so excited about this series!! There is a wealth of “do this/not that” photographic evidence to pull from. I think it’s very interesting to look back at when Princess Catherine really had her major “finishing school.” I think it was in the time slightly before/after Charlotte was born.

Me too! I took etiquette lessons in sixth grade. I attended a private Catholic school. These lessons were offered offsite. We giggled and laughed a lot but learned a lot also. The first lesson was on posture, sitting standing and walking. We did it over and over until done correctly and then ojr homework for the week was studying the book on posture, sitting, standing, etc., to be tested on it the following class. You can bet the Nuns saw a lot of great posture, sitting, standing and walking that week. We all thought they were spys for the etiquette teacher! LOL.

I've liked all your presentations thus far, Beebs, but REALLY loved this one! I believe very much in posture and etiquette. I worked in Japan for 11 years and know how these two topics are so important for well-mannered people. You can't, for example, successfully wear a kimono with bad posture, big sloppy walking, swinging arms or poor manners. Body language and behavior are favorite subjects of mine too! My Dad was a police officer/detective and taught me throughout childhood how important understanding body language is to sum up character, honesty, respect, etc. Having also been in the military, he also knew how important it is to always look neat and tidy on the job. My Mom is as feminine as they come so we both love everything about Catherine and loved dearly Queen Elizabeth II and Diana. Keep up the brilliant work, Beebs! You are an absolute joy!!

Both my boys went to public school in a suburb of Birmingham, Alabama. But it was better than most private schools. In 5th or 6th grade all the kids had to wear suits/ ties for the boys and dresses for the girls. They went to dinner at the country club ( but of course could have been at a restaurant) and were taught etiquette and manners. How to place their napkins, which forks to use, pull out chairs for the girls, etc. How to act properly but not uncomfortably formal as to not be fun and relaxed. I think it would be great for all kids to have a manners and etiquette class. It wasn’t a long class but was very beneficial.

Meghan holds her wrists out in weird positions so she can show of her jewellery. Just in case we forgot she has Diana's watch, a diamond bracelet and a beautiful engagement ring.

I remember thinking at the time that I was happy she had such pretty legs because sometimes those skirts were pushed way up by the wind. Have not seen anything like that lately.

Someone I did know back in 90s who was working for the late Queen as a wardrobe assistant (she was preparing her luggages for travel) she told me they were putting small curtain weights in her skirt border. They were putting a small stitch to keep in place. It was cheap and effective and because it has a small hold it was easy to stitch it.

Thanks so much for this Beebs. I have my granddaughters wedding coming up this week end and the standing and walking advice is brilliant. Also I took your advice on a body shaper and my goodness that made such a difference to the dress I'm wearing.

These videos are fascinating. I didn’t realize how my early training in K-12 Catholic schools imprinted on me with the constant reminders to “act like a lady.” The other day a friend sitting next to me at dinner remarked that she loved the way I always sat up straight at the rubber chicken dinners we have to attend and don’t slump, even with the prospect of that rubber chicken plate looming.

What's puzzling is that Meghan attended Catholic schools.

I love the advice for non wrinkling. I appreciate the reminder on posture too.

While watching this, I tried the sitting postures, and found that if I sit with my feet together flat on the floor, my knees tend to drift apart as I relax, so I get why the leg slant and crossed ankles. Also when I was growing up we were advised not to cross our legs because the pressure would lead to varicose veins later on. I'm going to remember the 'elbows in' rule when my son gets married & I have to be in some of the photos!

That bright green outfit the Queen wore was just so gorgeous!!

Ooh first! eyes and ears glued to you Beebs ♥️

This was a really interesting video. I never thought about the differences that you talk about here and how one comes off more professional than the other. I had noticed the clothing but not the arms and everything else. I enjoy body language stuff too. I frequently watch The Behavior Panel and The Behavioral Arts. There's also a guy that does linguistics videos, Martin DeCoder, that compared the engagement videos of William and Catherine to Harry and Meghan, and the differences were very interesting.

The Duchess of Wales is / seems to be perfect. Loved this video. Your videos are very helpful to anyone who wants to look their best. Sometimes MM walked and moved like a newborn colt and galloped around. Elbows out is very masculine, don't invade my space stance - like man splaning. Keeping the knees close together when standing and walking is also helpful in looking feminine / graceful. Thank you.

She's the PRINCESS of Wales.

The Meg's big downfall was that she didn't realise that she had to learn how to be a Duchess. She then wasn't willing to learn either. The Princess of Wales has learned all of the procedural, postural and clothing do's and don'ts. She hasn't always been as perfect as she is now!

It's interesting to note that so many of us would look at Meghan's outfits & think 'good grief no' but not necessarily always analyse it. So it's great to hear your in depth reviews that explain what it was we really saw. thanks!

I as surprised to see the wrinkling on Catherine’s dress at Wimbledon this year. I love the green dress, the color and the style, but it did wrinkle. A rare issue for Catherine.

You are right the dress was slightly wrinkled and perhaps that was attributable to the cloth it was made from.

Such a good episode with great tips today Beebs ! Loved it. I'm guilty of floppy hands and elbows sometimes, so this was a very handy episode. Keep up the great work ❤

Thank you for mentioning slips…I have tailored for men and women for 50 years…when women gave up slips…well so many bad things began to happen…rump sprung clothing (is hard to rework), lumps and bumps, nipple show, undergarment construction began to appear. Stockings and panty hose helped to provide “glide” to skirts and pants…also to mute undergarment color and line show through. The hang of an unlined garment is greatly improved with a slip and wrinkling is greatly reduced. Also slips are an all girl thing…sort of sexy. Back to stockings: they shade the legs…make ankles look slimmer, hide irregular leg color and look finished. Oh, also a slip makes certain “ wardrobe malfunctions way less embarrassing. Now…weighted hemlines…a nickel in a little silk “bag” with a spot of Velcro can go from garment to garment ( just have the corresponding piece of Velcro added in the proper area to each piece that needs weight. I have known seamstresses and tailors to use fishing weights and even lengths of braided wire to hems. Double sided clothing tape can keep an arm hole from gapping…( tip for short woman and/ or large busted women…use this tape on front fastening blouses and dresses to prevent “gaposous” especially when sitting…you know the area between buttons opening).Along necklines it can be used to keep a deeper cut necklines from becoming an embarrassment when you lean forward or bend down. I could go on and on…this is why well dressed women have dressmakers or tailors.

Oh dear, I’ve never thought for a second about my elbows, hands, or steps. Now I’ve gotta watch myself 🧐. Thank you so much for little tidbits of etiquette school!! I’m really loving the tips on how to be more classy and feminine 😍

I did see recently a video featuring Blake lovely where she kept one arm bent intentionally for photos (at in this one glittery bodysuit) - at least that’s how it was suggested in the video.

Very interesting and informative! You would have thought Meghan being an actress would have understood these things, but obviously she didn’t and it affected how others perceive her.

One thing Markle has taught the world is that money can’t buy class. If I were her, I would have been immensely grateful for guidance and diligently taken notes.

Thank you Beebs, even an old bat like me can learn new things here. My grandmother taught me a lot about posture and what colors and clothes would look best on my body type and I took her instructions to heart as they worked well for me. I hear a lot of younger women whining about wearing slips but I never wear a dress or skirt without one as they give a smoother line and also prevent panty lines showing. I do have to admit that at home I tend to sit in manners that I never would in public.

Good Evening, Beebs! I love your series. Thank you so kindly for sharing about the importance of these things that you covered today. YOU are the FIRST person that has mentioned the “Duchess Slant” in years. I found out about this as a little girl sixty years ago and simply thought young people paid no attention to it in this day. I thought perhaps you were a designer, or perhaps had experience in pageants but you unlocked the mystery for me today…you went to Etiquette School as we did. Thanks for the lovely content!

Great advice for anyone, just going to work or any interaction with other people. It is best to appear at ease at work or anywhere and then others will be more comfortable, too. Can you please do more of these vids because the awkward people (me) just do not get this kind of thing. Just walking is so powerful and sends a message.

Yes, please, to more lessons on etiquette. All these tips are positive ways to help us look and then feel better.

Megsy led to Megsys downfall. She was a nobody, married a Prince of nowhere and she is still a nobody.

I agree and she also seems to be turning her Prince into a nobody very quickly also.

I wonder if MM is trying to appear bigger in stature and more confident when she swings her arms and takes long strides …

Please more like this, Beebs! So many ladies will enjoy benefitting, as I do, from your knowledge and training. You present info really well, you're engaging and interesting, and your focus on the royal family adds a different dimension for women (like me) from countries that don't have one.

This was fascinating. I never noticed the Markel chicken-dance arms. I think I was overwhelmed and possibly cross eyed trying to make sense of the other appendages.

Thank you so much for your tips and advice! Everything you said is absolute correct and should be passed on to our daughters and granddaughters 😊

Oh yes...and there is a lot of difference just between William and Harry! Beebs, you already have the images. The poop emoji hat review is one I was looking at not that long ago. William is right behind him, and Harry's overcoat is wrinkled and looks like a blanket with his crumpled pockets that are all stuffed inside the coat, and his pants are too tight in the crotch all the time. His posture is awful in formal settings. Great idea!

Funnily enough, just a couple of nights ago I looked online for some nice looking casual clothes for H. That guy dresses so slovenly. I have been watching old snippets of Seinfeld on YT and Jerry dresses quite nicely but casual and I thought H should wear similar clothes that Jerry wears. That photo of H supposedly coming out after a secret meeting to pay respects to the queen was awful with what looked like an old icky white button down shirt, old, worn black jeans without a belt. It was then that I realized how shabbily H dresses. (In the Seinfeld show, I love how Elaine dresses, too!)

Fascinating topic today! We used to call “etiquette school” “finishing school”-like you’ve had your basic education, now let’s “finish” by brushing up your etiquette! I remember learning about not showing the inside “big side” of the elbow. The lecture from the body language expert must have been amazing. I also loved all of your practical tips for looking better and more confident in photographs. Edited for brevity.

The really stupid thing about Megan is that if you don't learn or listen to advice about these things, inevitably there will be photos where you look awkward and clumsy and badly dressed. And then you get to see the photos and feel bad and so become even more awkward. It's a vicious circle.

The reality is that methane thought she is better than anyone else in the RF and hairplugs confirmed that in that godawful netflop show when he said she was doing a much better job at being a royal than anyone else (probably targeting Catherine in that remark) but the RF refused to appreciate that fact, blah, blah, blah. They think that she is god's gift to the RF but no one appreciated it. With such inflated self opinion, it was no wonder that she refused to 'learn' anything and thought she already knew everything. Leave alone the fact that she was so anxious to have that wedding ring on so she can grab onto hairplugs and his 'money' that there wasn't much time to 'learn' and develop good proper deportment even if she was willing (which she definitely was not).

Does Megan not read about herself? Hard to believe she does not take advice but she doesn't!

I saw this video and found it interesting that a lot of these rules were common a couple generations ago. My grandmother went to finishing school at 17 before her wedding and a lot of these were covered there. How to seat, to avoid wrinkles, to do small talk, to pose properly for portraits, to conduct yourself properly in school, work and public events, etc. I am imagining some poor people at the Palace attempting a Princess Diaries scene and Miss Mess saying "No thanks, I am a queen!!"

These are wonderful tips that anyone can use. It's amazing how much your posture and mannerisms affect how you are perceived and also impacts beauty and attractiveness. I'd love to hear more about the etiquette class...

Shout out to the late queen's milliners who perfectly matched her hats to her outfits!

I love your channel. You've really helped me make better choices when I sew. Style and poor fabric choices are the biggest mistakes I see most of us making... besides poor tailoring.

More like this, please. Very interesting and helpful. Thank you, Beebs

Crossing legs is against protocol but the rebel without a cause, is always biting her nose in spite of her face.

Thank you, this was very helpful for me! I was familiar with the "Duchess slant" for all of the reasons you put forth except for the ideas that sitting this way 1) creates a better position for the upper body, not just the lower body 2) causes less clothing wrinkles. I generally don't consider where to place my elbows/arms/hands when I am standing up. Yet, these pictures don't lie! I believe Princess Catherine has put a lot of thought into the way she carries herself and maneuvers her body. Paradoxically, the end result is that Princess Catherine looks totally natural. She looks elegant and graceful, but also as if she has just always moved and looked this way. It is something to aspire to!

I have always felt undergarments are more important than garments worn on the outside. Our outside garments look and hang so much better if the undergarments are well thought out. You can always tell Meghan is missing her undergarments.

Lots of people have bad postures. From looking at our phones. I need to work on mine it gets worse with age.

Thank you so much for this series and service, which is aptly warranted in today’s society! On can never stop learning! Much appreciated, from a most grateful Grandmama from Québec, 🇨🇦 💕🌺
