Royal-ly Beautiful!

A huge congratulations to Kate & Wills for delivering a beautiful baby boy, Prince of Cambridge as no christian name chosen yet! Proud to be British! Here is a timeline of Kate's maternity fashion from the very early days till, in fact, today! 

October


Kate's khaki trench matched with a crocodile-skin belt, below-the-knee suede boots and suede clutch. The outfit isn't particularly amazing but I think we can forgive! According to Kate's usual high-end looks, this outfit isn't really up to scratch. We all have those days but luckily for us, we don't have paps hunting after us!

November


Kate oozes elegance in this lace Alice Temperly gown. This figure-hugging dress, which she wore to the St Andrews anniversary dinner, shows of her slim figure gorgeously. She couldn't have worn something more graciously amazing!

December


At her first appearance since announcing her pregnancy, Kate wore an emerald Alexander McQueen dress which covered her blooming bump modestly keeping attention off her when possible. This outfit is safe, and in these circumstances I like it, but I think it could have been styled better overall.

January 


Yet another fashion hit! This pastel and light gold sequined dress I love entirely! It's brocaded satin is a gorgeous material to use and I love the loosely bunched sleeves which fall over her shoulders. Also, the triangular style sequin trail, around the waist, hides her bump delicately. Kate's gorgeous smile tops this outfit off.

February


Kate looks casually stylish in this grey MaxMara wrap dress. Her simple silver jewellery and simple black stilettos keep this outfit to its style code, still keeping her belly under wraps. I think the main thing that makes this outfit is Kate as the actual outfit isn't the most special of things.

March 


Kate looks cute and cheery in this cream, 'Peter Pan' collared coat. And we have a breakthrough...we can see her perfect bump! She looks happy and gorgeous in this simple coat and I don't think she could look any better!

April


Kate's Topshop polka-dot dress was an instant sell out. She looks classy teaming the dress with black accessories. This dress is now one of her most well-known outfits worn due to the huge publicity surrounding the Royal Baby.

May


Again the Duchess looks glowing at the Queen's Summer Party. Her yellow patterned overcoat was a very elegant choice.  Her fascinator is thankfully simple, (she luckily hadn't taken inspiration form Princess Beatrice & Eugenie's fascinators worn to the Royal Wedding! PHEW!), and her cream heels, very classic. She uses a beige clutch as a bump support!

June


Kate looks very pretty in pastels as she nears the end of her pregnancy. The silver belt embellishes her stomach much to our joy! Her rose dress has a beautiful lace hem and her paneled, tailored coat is utterly beautiful. Kate pulls the outfit over perfectly!

July


I don't think I need to elaborate but may we treasure this picture forever. A great moment for all.

The Love-ing Serve-ice to Fashion.

Following the hoof steps of Royal Ascot, we come to Wimbledon. And of course, with another sports event comes some more amazing outfits, oh and also another cheesy title! Nothing less! Today I will be focusing on two particular people. Kim Sears, who is Andy Murray's gorgeous girlfriend, and Pippa Middleton, Kate's sis and 'Maid of Honour' for the fab Royal Wedding...that's when she wore that dress. Still think the nation wants her bum! Moving on, I'm going to show you my favourites, starting with Kim.


Kim has teamed her beautifully tailored blue blazer perfectly with a sleek beige blouse striped tangerine down the middle. The pastels blend nicely and the outfit has the pop of colour that it needs without any patterns. 


Kim's block colours pop nicely. Her canary blazer, styled more casual than in the previous, doesn't class with her pleated emerald blouse. She has finished the outfit off nicely with a tan leather bag and simple black leggings. 


I love Kim's cream trench coat, which is most probably Burberry or Zara depending on how her 'High Street Queen' side was strong on the day she brought it. Underneath, it looks like she's wearing a thin, speckled grey jumper, accompanied by dark denim skinny jeans.

Overall, Kim's style is nice and clean cut. She has quite a classic sense of fashion, which she puts together nicely. I'm sure the future will bring her more saavy outfits. This is the link for Kim's Outfits. As it is a slideshow, just go through to see all of them displayed.

Now, onto Pippa...



Pippa's Temperly dress is not one of my favourites. It's not the worst I've ever seen but I wouldn't wear it personally. I think the cut is unflattering and makes her hips look wider spread than they should. The horizontal stripes make matter worse by making her body look out of proportion. Pippa is beautiful and has a very slender body but with this dress, all it does is take her figure away. Maybe with a nude-coloured strip cutting across the waist, it might complement her figure. Pippa is beautiful in anything she wears but this time she has got a little but side-tracked with her choice of outfit.

I much prefer this outfit to the previous. Her cute, light blue summer dress and cobalt tweed jacket, with frayed trim match nicely. She finishes off the simple look with a large, envelope clutch. I like this outfit but it isn't the most amazing Pippa has worn.
(The Link.)

Overall, Pippa's style is quite trim and simple. She never wears overstated, bold patterns and keeps her dress code quite modest but what would you expect from the Duchess of Cambridge's sister.

Thankyou for reading!
