Anyone going to watch him play polo in Santa Barbara on Saturday?

All the advisor needs to do is select 2 ties for a 10 day visit. Cushy-est job in the world.

My wife is interested in finding out more.

The dress she is wearing in the hockey picture is by danish designer Malene Birger. All the danish newspapers are running the story today..

Other dresses have been by Erdem and UK companies Hobbs and Reiss among others.

It may have some basis in security/publicity. By constantly wearing the same suit the trip has become a week long photo opp solidly establishing his image in the public conciousness. This would have been less effective if he appearance changed every day.

His face hasn't exactly been published regularly across the world until recently, a consistent image will probably help a lot of people recognise him.

Well, we've come this far... might as well see this right through to the end.

Day 7 and the Royal couple is visiting the devastated community of Slave Lake, Alberta. Even though the jacket is the same, this photo confirms that William brought more than one pair of pants along with him:

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the only garment bag "W" brought along for the trip:

Not for $4,000.

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/...rticle2090562/ Is that the same jacket in the last photo as the first page? It seems hard that the first could roll that far.

The world-famous (sort of) Prince William thread keeps rolling along... here's the latest installment from SF's correspondent in Calgary. Some interesting looks today. The suit is back! You could have a fun SF caption contest with this photo:

It's Calgary Stampede time, so white hats are in order, along with plaid apparently. Looks like William and Harper have run out of small talk, although Kate and Laureen seem to be doing just fine:

He TOTALLY could have worn the suit on the stagecoach:

Giddyup!

^In that middle pic ... looks like he's got a pinch between his cheek and gum!

I'm surprised he wore a watch with a metal band with his suit.

Damn she's skinny...

Skoal, brother!

Nope – both look quite different to me. The first looks like flannel, the second a linen mix:
