More High Street Hits for Kate
The Duchess of Cambridge paid a visit to Liverpool this week, and again she showed that even with all the World’s top designers at her feet, she is still a High Street girl at heart. This time the store of choice was Hobbs, and the item of choice was a beautiful brown calf length coat with a skinny belt. The coat was the Unlimited Celeste Flared coat, that was reduced in the sale to £182. I say was, because, as with every item worn by the Duchess, this coat sold out within hours of the Liverpool visit. However, I have added the link to the coat below as clever Hobbs…

Duchess style continues to rule
So it is finally official, the news that all fashion lovers already knew, Duchess Kate is great for the fashion economy. As well as helping companies like Reiss to show huge profits thanks to her patronage of their brands, Kate has helped dresses, fascinators and nude coloured tights to become much sought after items and has guaranteed an instant sell out of any item she wears, or is reported to have bought. This week Kate took a shopping trip to Chelsea’s Kings Road and visited boutique Anonymous by Ross+Bute. She made the most of the sales by purchasing this purple jewel collared v neck top, reduced to £84.50. Of course,…

Pippa and Kate End The Year In Style.
Those lovely Middleton ladies ended the year on a style high, showing that the cold weather is no excuse to let up on the fashion front. A new picture of Kate showed her looking dressed down in a stylish shearling style jacket from LK Bennett along with a pair of Wellington boots that matched those worn by her brother-in-law Prince Harry. The jacket, the Darwin, is now sold out completely online, in both expresso brown and black shades. Kate was also wearing her much loved Temperley honeycomb jumper, and a rather stylish jaunty hat. You can steal Kate’s hat style for just £4 with this cute wool felt trilby from…

Kate sparkles Like Mulled Wine at Sandringham
We have been hearing stories about Kate Middleton’s five outfits on Christmas Day, and at Sandringham Church we were treated to a good look at one of them. Kate chose a gorgeous berry shaded frock-coat that has been described as being designed by an independent British Designer, but which reminds me of a Katherine Hooker style that Kate has worn previously. Collarless and belted, this longer length coat looked supremely elegant when compared to the rather short styles some of the Royal ladies chose to wear to church. Kate teamed it with a jaunty hat from Milliner Jane Corbett. This kept the outfit looking young and fun, whilst opaque style…
