Kate Middleton – Latest Outfits
It’s been a busy week for Duchess Kate. The state visit of the Chinese President has seen Kate attend her first state banquet, and she has also met Jackie Chan and attended multiple occasions in Scotland. For lovers of Kate’s style, it has been a real fashion bonanza, because she has, quite frankly, looked amazing for every occasion, with the Dolce and Gabbana Marsala dress being one of my favourite Kate looks ever. Here are three outfits from this week in a bit more detail. Look 1 – State Banquet. Red is always a great colour for Kate, and the Jenny Packham dress was a beautiful, formal choice. This dress…

Welcome to the World Charlotte Elizabeth Diana
I spent another bank holiday weekend in Wales, but I was so excited when I woke up on Saturday morning to find that Duchess Kate had had her baby, and that we now had a little princess. Today we found out that the baby had been called Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, and I don’t think I will be the only one really pleased that the baby’s name contains a tribute to her beautiful grandmother Princess Diana. Kate left hospital fairly quickly on Saturday and looked wonderful after giving birth just that morning. Unlike the birth of George, when Kate left hospital on a gloriously sunny day, the weather was pretty chilly,…

Kim Sears weds Andy Murray
It may be only April, but it seems as if we’ve already witnessed the wedding of the year. Yesterday Wimbledon Champ Andy Murray wed the gorgeous Kim Sears in Dunblane, and it proved to be the sort of warm and wonderful wedding that warms the heart, even though the weather wasn’t all that kind to the happy couple. The stylish Kim has proved to be a bit of a fashion favourite in recent years, with both tennis fans and fashion fans noticing her chic, and always elegant choices that,like another famous tennis fan, Kate Middleton, manage to successfully mix designer pieces with high street favourites. So, on this most special…

Friday Fashion – Duchess Kate and more looks from the New Zealand Tour
I have to say I am loving the range of looks that Kate Middleton has been wearing on the Royal Tour of New Zealand. Even though, yet again, she has been criticised for playing it safe, and even ‘looking like an air hostess’, I think Kate has been showcasing a great range of British fashion, wearing two of her favourite designers in Jenny Packham and Alexander McQueen. There have also been a nod to trend, with vibrant blue and midi lengths being part of the look. Alexander McQueen For a visit to the Blenheim War Memorial Kate wore an Alexander McQueen bespoke frock coat in the most gorgeous shade…

Duchess of Cambridge – a round-up of recent looks
Slowly but surely, Duchess Kate is heading back towards her public duties, and she’s doing it in the sort of style she has made her trademark. Beautiful gowns, wardrobe favourites that we have seen before and a new, soft hairstyle that is slightly reminiscent of ringlets, Kate shows why she is fully deserving of her nomination for Style Icon at this year’s British Style Awards. One of my favourite Kate looks from this year has to be the elegant midnight blue dress by Jenny Packham. Kate wore this higher up on the shoulders than the dress was worn on the catwalk, making this a more refined, ladylike look. The shade…
