Even before she became the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton has perfected a royal style that has never been seen before. Kate is feminine, sleek & modern, whilst her choice of designers is always attainable for the average style stalker.

| Kate shopping in London last week... |
From before the wedding, Kate’s choice of outfits has been simply perfection. When the couple’s engagement photos were shot at St. James’ Palace in London, the extravagant background was the perfect background for the modest couple.
In the casual shot, Kate wears jeans and a white Whistles blouse while the Prince wears jeans, a white Turnbull & Asser shirt, and a brown Brunello Cucinelli jumper supplied by photographer Mario Testino. The second shows the Prince in a suit, shirt and tie from royal outfitters Turnbull & Asser. Kate wears a white $325 Reiss dress with just a single pearl earring visible. The demand for the stunning white dress crashed the Reiss website as demand flooded the high street designer. The best thing about these photos is that Kate did her own make up. She obviously isn’t one to be fussed over, which makes her even more relatable. The couple are BEYOND IN LOVE in these photos!
When Kate Middleton stepped out of the vintage Rolls Royce Phantom, she stepped straight the pages of fashion history, finally revealing her wedding dress to a waiting world audience, estimated at around two billion people. She carried a small bouquet of flowers which bore a secret love message to her future husband.
Nearly 200 years of British royal history were incorporated into the wedding dress of the century which Sarah Burton created for Kate Middleton 's marriage to Prince William . Its exquisite hand-embroidered and appliquéd lace, while the classic and graceful lines were inspired by the romantic style of Princess Grace. The English Cluny lace was hand worked in the Carrick across tradition, which originated in Ireland in the 1820's, and was mixed with French Chantilly lace. BEYOND REGAL!
The wedding dress was a model of sumptuous simplicity, perfectly suited to the sweet and serene style of the woman who is now Duchess of Cambridge and is destined to be the future Queen of England.
The design was fabulous, fashionable and fairytale, perfectly in tune with Ms Middleton's desire that it should combine tradition and modernity with the artistic vision that characterises Britain's most famous fashion label, established by the late Lee Alexander McQueen, in 1994.
"It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Catherine Middleton, to create her wedding dress, and I have enjoyed every minute of it," Sarah Burton said.

| BEYOND STUNNING!! |
When the happy couple returned from their amazing honeymoon in the Seychelles, Kate looked bronzed, fit, and regal in her first official visit since the wedding. Wearing another creation by Reiss, this fitted mushroom dress called the “Shola Bandage Dress” is a neutral and sleek choice with a cinched waste and modest cap sleeves. Kate’s choice of dress again crashed the Reiss website. Kate is becoming a designers dream with her “KATE-EFFECT”... To add a contemporary edge to the outfit, Kate chose an Anya Hindmarch’s Maud clutch in black silk to top off the look.
To complete the look, Kate styled her hair in a refined ponytail. Soooooo stylish for our modern princess. As expected, retailer Reiss reported that their Peacock Dress is sold out. The KATE – EFFECT hits again!
Cameras went ballistic on Thursday (June 9) night, as Kate and William made an appearance at a glamorous London fundraiser.
The gorgeous Kate wore a floor-length blush organza Jenny Packham gown at the 10th annual Absolute Return for Kids (ARK) gala dinner. William was comforting to Kate as she laughed while stopping on the purple carpet and posing for photographers.
As soon as I saw this dress I knew I had seen it before... and then I remembered I had seen it on Blair (Leighton Meester) in Gossip Girl Season 4 during Episode 20: "The Princesses and the Frog." Blair was playing the modern fiancé of royalty and then as luck would have it our modern princess wore the same gown. BEYOND PERFECT for our PERFECT PRINCESS!!
Six weeks after gracing the world with a Royal kiss, Kate and William returned to Buckingham Palace on Saturday to celebrate the Trooping of the Colour and celebrate the 85th birthday of the Queen.
All eyes were on the newlyweds, as Kate’s style was in full force, wearing a double-breasted cream coat and black hat, as she travelled through the streets of London in a carriage with other members of the Royal family. William however was participating as an honorary colonel on horseback.
Moments later, Kate and her sister Pippa had headed to Berkshire for the wedding of their mutual friend jockey Sam Waley-Cohen and Annabel Ballin. The Duchess of Cambridge went for a monochrome printed dress worn with the very same hat from the morning’s duties and classic black pumps; it was BEYOND PERFECT wedding attire.
I hope you enjoyed my style stalking of the most naturally beautiful woman.
Kate Middleton will forever be the epitome of “Less is More”...
Ciao!
