I worked very hard to find the IDs today, so I would be grateful if you can also credit me sometimes. I checked so many coats before to find the Courrèges coat, a vintage piece .
$10,000!!! Outfit to see a show? When she wore a $8,000 outfit that very morning. Again i try not to criticize another female but this is ostentatious and insensitive. That dress looks like something i bought at anthropologie for $100. How do u justify such extravagance?!?! Even if she can afford it, its so unsettling and pretentious. Ugh!

With respect, Nati, owning a couple of properties in London will make someone ‘worth’ £2m. That doesn’t mean they can afford whatever they want, because that money is tied up. There’s no way Amal could afford this on her own salary – she needs George’s net worth to afford this (if indeed she is buying the stuff).

I suspect that these outfits are not costing her one penny. I would imagine that designers are throwing clothes at her left, right, and center….just hoping that she will wear a piece or two. The publicity that they would gain from it is immeasurable. This blog is one example….plus almost every article about her mentions what designer she is wearing. She is the current ‘it’ girl. She is a walking billboard…as are most celebrities.
It’s win-win….the designers get publicity and she gets tons and tons of clothes (and she obviously is someone who likes fashion and clothes). She may want/be able to keep some of the clothes but some will be on loan….like the red carpet dresses. She probably does not want to keep all of it anyway as she likely doesn’t want/need to wear things twice…especially something like the coats….and plus, she will constantly have new fashions/designs/seasons to wear/choose from. Right now, she has a endless closet.
After this week, I suspect that her parents/sister will also get offers (if not already).
She probably spends less on clothes now then before she married GC 🙂

Anyway, my comment was more of, if she always wore zara then nobody would notice her…
And my last comment is that she does indeed starting to look anorexic. I liked her better in the wedding photos. Check out her arms and collar bones and how much they are showing…her feet and toes look a little bit funny as well, mayby because of the high heels she is always wearing

I don`t think your viewers need to comment on how awesome of you it is that you are doing this and what a great job you are doing. I mean, you completely voluntarily started the blog, and it is not like it is a blog about how to build a cheap shelter for the homeless, either.

I’m with Nati. The exhibitionism, showiness and flaunting is pathological. It indicates insecurity in who she and the need to be recognised and acknowledged. The psychological basis of it is the core belief “I’m not good enough” – it stems back to early parenting experiences in the formative years when her internal sense of self was developing.
The bubble of self aggrandisement and self-importance does combust eventually bce you can never hold back the internal feelings that keep creeping in. You will notice that Amal’s wardrobe will become more ostentatious and George will become more humble in his clothes choices with time – they will start to look more out of sync very soon.
I could write more about Amal’s internal dynamics – she fits a particular classic pattern – but I know Nati won’t publish it, as at this stage it’s all theory and conjecture.
Having said that Nati, I’m sure you will recall earlier posts by some of your readers who noticed the change in Amal before the rest of us did.

I am a well educated woman and come from a well off family, but still can’t afford these clothes…and I am the same age as Amal….She is lucky!(in a good way)…she has the opportunity to show off in beautiful clothes, probably not pay them (or at least not all of them) and noone can say anything. Let’s be honest, any woman in her “shoes” would do the exact same thing for as long as it lasts…Next year someone else is gonna be the new “it” girl so….Wish I had the same opportunity to run around in high-end clothes from the catwalk….this doesn’t take away anything from her personality, unless she ends up doing just that for the rest of her life.
And being the wife of George does has all the benefits…in clothes and in finances….I don’t think her salary was the same before George, cause let’s be honest…in her age and her profession, if you don’t own your own bussiness….you only get a salary…mayby a big one…but not 2million big!!!!and that I know it from personal experience…

It started out at $3000 total and now were up to $10,000 an outfit. I’m sure this puzzles a lot of American George Clooney fans. He’s SO NOT pretentious. SO NOT haute couture. Yes, Amal is wealthy and smart, BUT so are a lot of Hollywood stars, it doesn’t mean they are going to wear 10,000 dollars worth of haute couture daily for the paparazzi. I like Amal, but I am confused why she comes across as pretentious, why she’s smiling or laughing when absolutely no one else around her is doing so, and why the constant hair toss-toss??!!

Amal really has awful toes and if we are about style here – they spoil the look. Also – I don’t care how much money she is now worth – it is tacky to be spending this much money in a day when people are dying in Nepal and Africa.True style means making a $50 outfit look fabulous because you have the taste to mix it and wear it well.
The dress looks like a nightie. I wouldn’t wear it without slippers.
It is interesting that the recycled floral jump suit (Versace?) that she wore so well in London visiting Alexander McQueen with the perfect hair was worn so badly with the belt and awful shoes previously in Amsterdam.
I was a huge fan previously but she is now on a fame junket and losing her identity as a tearaway human rights lawyer.
After all that study and her achievements -it is so sad that she seems to place her human worth in the outfits George can pay for or that designers shower her with to wear.
Its a retrograde step for a modern woman.
I am wary of the message that she is sending out to young women.
After the clothes worn once are hanging in the cupboard and dated – bet she wished she had the best designed accessory there is for long term happiness – children – like Kate Middleton.

I repeat – she could send out a better message to young women than to be defined by over priced and not always nice designer clothes.
I do admire her greatly – for who she worked so hard to become – but not for this nouveau riche display of senseless consumerism.

Don’t be so hasty in misunderstanding the human condition.

I am new to posting to this site, but have followed it since Day One! I am an attorney and very intrigued by Amal Clooney. I appreciate all the ID’s because they give me ideas, but I could never carry some of her bags, and have credibility with judges and my clients. It would be presumed I am gouging my clients to support my own lap of luxury. I am however, especially interested in the grey bag she is carrying with her navy suit. It is understated and professional. I appreciate any time and energy you must expend to share this information. It is so interesting to read all these conversations!

Nati, a question: why don´t you publish my comments anymore although they are surely not hateful?

Because your comments are only against her. Voilà.

I don’t want to be indiscreet Nati and I will understand if you don’t post my question which is certainly out of place on the blog, but are you French ?
‘Voilà’ is such a French filler ;), probably one of the most common 🙂

Voila … je ne suis pas vraiment surprise! Nati, you don’t publish my comments anymore because I’m not idolizing Amal and I’m using my brain too – two major crimes on this blog??? My comments on Amal were not about liking or not liking HER (i.e. the person/human), it is more about SEEING HOW she LOOKS and describing my IMPRESSION of her, how she looked in this Courrèges coat and my thoughts about! I see the positive side of Amal, but also some negative aspects – outfits, demeanor etc. Besides, I’m not idolizing anyone, even not the people I love. Amal is obviously an intelligent and interesting woman, so this blog could be also intelligent, captivating and some thoughtful comments surely could be allowed? What do you think?

I published your comment about the Courrèges coat …. If you don’t like her it is better if you use your energy for a positive action …

Love her coat bag and this blog. Thank you so much for all the trouble you go looking up the clothes. Looking at the pictures with Tala and the parents I think Amal looks like her dad and Tala her mother.
Does anyone know where Tala’s coat is from the one described as laser cut tan trench?
