    I want to take this opportunity to reiterate that sharing lipgloss is not any sort of an “American thing.” Gives me the heebie jeebies just thinking about it. 😬

      I agree. I don’t share any lip gloss, brush, comb, etc with anyone, much less a stranger. Don’t know anyone that does. Stupid even to ask to borrow. I am an American also.

      Quite agree- it’s simply not done, my last year at Grammar school a friend lent her lip gloss to her friend merely hours later she was in ICU with meningitis transmitted by an infection from the lip gloss , sadly she passed away .

    I lost about half of my teeth from a mixture of physical violence, and the following depression and lack of financial means to get them fixed while they were still salvageable. I used to love fashion and that died with the loss of what I perceived my beauty to be dependent on. In my youth I was a competitive dancer on an international scale. I had lost my ability to feel pretty following the loss of my smile, many years ago.
    I started watching you about 2 years ago and have since fully embraced my love of fashion, my love of dressing up, and my love of campiness.
    You have an impact far beyond what you realize, with your show. Thank you River, for helping this broken and sad Alaskan native feel a little less broken and far less sad. You have helped me embrace a silliness, and a confidence that I thought had been destroyed. You are phenomenal in everything you post.
    Your fans love you, and I am one of your biggest fans,

    I can imagine MM being jealous. Catherine is beautiful, to me she looks just like her dad. She hit the genetic lottery with her body, height and face. She is a natural beauty. Meghan is not bad, but she has had a lot of work done to look “not bad.” Catherine doesn’t even have to try.

    • @emdeejay5515

      Hear, hear! Very good point about the natural stunning beauty of Catherine and the so-so acceptable look of Meghan, which took a lot of work (nose job, hair straightening, skillful make up sculpting, etc.) Still, Meghan does not do things with her wardrobe which would help, such as wearing clothes that fit and that are not wrinkled, and wearing clothes that flatter her shape instead of accentuating the problem areas. Ah, well, she didn’t ask my advice…

      I was one of those people who would never have been seen dead in a charity shop.
      Then I was asked by a close friend to help her out she was an area manager for a well known Scottish charity as she has been left in the lurches it were. Reluctantly I agreed.
      Long story short
      I was soon a passionate convert.
      You would be stunned at what walks through the doors everything from the sublime to the ridiculous.
      I had been informed by friends who had managed charity shops they it was a common thing for volunteers to operate a scheme in their own favour so I instantly put a scheme in place for ALL those working in the store whether salaried or volunteer paid half ticket prices.I was laughed at told we would instantly lose money we didn't.rather our sales increased dramatically.
      Personally I have bought several amazing items. My wardrobe changed virtually overnight.
      I wear an unusual show size and we received a donation of 6 steamer trunks . They contained almost entirely brand new items some from early 60's to present time. Vintage Dior, Channel,several ball gowns nearest ballgrowns from 50's and so many items from 20's onward all bagged professionally with under garments shoes, handbag and jewellery honestly unbelievable. Boxes containing classic perfume including believe it or not several bottles of what was one of late Queens favourite *Joy* none had been opened and all remained as the specialist contacted stated to be sweet.
      I sold many on to professional bodies like BBC, Theatre Royal, the then STV. Some outfits that had been worn often or that had some light damages were donated to my favourite muesem in Glasgow ( Kelvingrove)
      The local theatres also received donations
      Me I was literally the only staff member who could wear them or liked the styles available. Including one smaller size trunk full of vintage classic shoes. After they had been offered on sale at truly exceptional prices only managing to sell one pair. Rather than dispose of them I bought the lot. I'm still wearing them to this day. Some extremely well known respected names indeed. Many were hand made Italian and there were 7 pairs of plain black court shoes all beautiful and slightly different.
      Lee showing off your beautiful buys they make my day

    I am not defending Princess Catherine, however, I would never lend my lipstick or lip gloss to ANYONE! It is neither sanitary nor healthy. I was horrified when I heard Megan asked to borrow Catherine’s lip gloss. Hopefully, Catherine discarded it and switched to a new “uncontaminated” one. How rude is asking to borrow such a personal cosmetic.

    Your dinner lady numbers remind me of the housecoats my nana always wore. These were nylon affairs that she wore over her outfit when doing housework to keep her day dress clean. Those patch pockets were handy for stuffing dusters, or a handkerchief. Once she was finished working, or if unexpected visitors came calling, the housecoat would be discarded and there she was in her tweed skirt and twin set looking as though she'd never flicked a duster in her life!

    I love watching River speak on the royals, but it's also such a treat to have a nice, long Tip Jar Corner! This calls for a fresh cup of tea and some chocolate biscuits before I settle in to watch. Any chance of a field trip to see you peruse Secondhand Susie's sparkly finds?

    I’m only 50 seconds into the broadcast and I am already tickled and delighted. River, you are adorable and charming. I love your attitude about everything. I had to pause already to say that I love your jacket and would wear it in a heartbeat, anywhere! And also, yes, one does get carried away. 😂 Not you, though- I think the bright lips and that colorful dandy fascinator go just fine together. It’s splashy bright, but still a pulled-together look for any saucy event. And every look goes fine here, on your own broadcast! Thank you for showing us so many of your style looks. ❤

    My Dearest River, asking to borrow someone's lipgloss is just unhygienic & downright disgusting. You don't share lip products or mascara for fear of contamination from germs. You might as well aske to use someone's personal toothbrush or used feminine hygiene products. And, there is NO WAY that the Spare's future ex-wife grew up as a girl learning how to use makeup that she didn't know that! It's something that you learn as a toddler when your mother lets you use Chapstick for the first time. She was just pushing Princess Catherine's boundaries to see how far she could go & to entrap her with a claim of racism when she was sensibly rebuffed. The fact that Sparry cannot understand why people don't share lip products says more about his own lack of intellect than anything about Catherine's predilections.

    I think Princess Charlotte is one of the most beautiful of the Royals. If she continues as she is now, she'll be a real stunner!!!
    Meghan can be quite beautiful, but her clothing choices make her look like a sqwat little troll. If she allowed a professional stylist to handle her, she could be impressive. Unfortunately, Meghan is under the impression she has exquisite taste and is deaf to wiser advice.

    River...I'm back today because I'm feeling very nostalgic and I didn't get to finish this video yesterday. I'm so glad I did now. Your tip jar corner, with your orange cup and fresh soaps, was such a delight on a gloomy day. Every once in a while you mention something from your past or childhood etc that reminds me of my younger years. I get fascinated trying to figure out how old you are, but I would never ask! You have the wisdom of someone much older, but you have the face of an angel much younger than I think your years would say. Isn't that delightful that you are such a mystery? I think you have many of your members here guessing too. I love that you have such a love for the Royal family, and love for your country. And you have such knowledge about how so many things work and you share that impeccable knowledge. So thanks to you, dear River. You brightened my day...which was quite a feat on this Monday.

    Hey River.
    Or should I say, Carmen Miranda!
    I’m loving the subtle colour palette, with this dismal late autumnal weather we definitely need to put a bit of colour back in the day.
    I love St Ives, I was there 10 days ago. But It feels longer.
    I love seeing the little glances between William & Catherine. You can see how much they love and adore each other. These little glances shout their genuine feelings louder than all that clinging and grasping that ‘the others’ do. And I’m glad that the photographer caught Catherine treating William to a subtle little bottom pat at the Scottish crowning ceremony. Catherine is a total goddess, but it’s nice that we get to see a little bit of an impish side to her as well. You can see William is very proud of her. I really enjoy seeing other peoples love for each other, it gives me the warm and fuzzies.
    Have a fabulous week ❤
