Happy Anniversary William and Kate
A year ago I was sitting in a caravan in Wales ignoring the sunshine outside, with my eyes glued to a telly screen. I wasn’t alone. Millions, if not billions of people around the World were sitting in apprehension, waiting for the moment when Kate Middleton would step from her car and reveal her wedding dress to the waiting world. That moment, when it was revealed that the dress was Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, made the fashion world gasp in delight. The dress was everything we dreamed it would be and more, which are words that could be ascribed to Kate, now the Duchess of Cambridge, herself. Of course,…

Competition time! Get the Middleton look at Jon Richard
We all know about the Kate effect on fashion. Anything the Duchess of Cambridge wears, particularly if purchased from a High Street store, is an instant sell out. So it’s no wonder that the High Street is getting style inspiration from the stylish Duchess.

Pippa Middleton Shows of her Autumn Style – get the Look for Less.
The temperatures have dipped and now Pippa Middleton is showing us how to get an Autumn look that keeps you snug without compromising on style. Bright coloured coats, animal print scarves and black basics are a simple, yet effective look which are proving that Pippa has a cold weather style almost as smoking hot as her summer looks. I love the Sara Berman Yvette coat that Pippa is wearing below.It has a 1950s teddy boy feel that lends itself to this season’s androgynous look. The coat is available from my-wardrobe.com for £396. Like sister Kate, Pippa is showing support for the ethical label Beulah London, wearing the Shibani scarf from…
