Kate Middelton matches Prince George’s christening gown with off-white Alexander McQueen
Who wore off-white best: a pudgy-cute baby in a dress or the always-stunning Kate Middleton? Okay, it’s not a fair comparison, but with Prince George on the scene, attention is certainly divided. The three month old heir to the throne was christened this morning at an intimate royal affair—just 22 guests are reported to have been in attendance, including the Middleton family, Prince Harry and, of course, the Queen. (Sorry, Cressida Bonas, maybe next time!)
While Prince George’s christening outfit was decided centuries ago (he’s in a replica of the royal christening robe, the original of which is 172 years old) Kate’s christening dress is completely new. It’s a bespoke Alexander McQueen piece, which bares a striking resemblance to the ruffled Reiss dress she wore for her official engagement photos in 2010. Kate kept her hair straight with one side pinned up, the perfect style to match her cream-coloured hat by Jane Taylor and show off her Kiki McDonough citrine earrings.

Kate Middleton wears Smythe and proves that even with heels on she can still play volleyball
See Kate Middleton’s look up close » Kate Middleton’s love for athletics is no secret (hello, Olympic celebrations and field hockey antics!) so it’s fitting that today’s outing—her first solo engagement since Prince George was born—was to a SportsAid workshop for young athletes, a charity of which Kate is patron to. Held at an arena […]

Kate Middleton wears shimmering silver Jenny Packham on the red carpet
After a jam-packed week of red carpets in Toronto, we thought that gala event fatigue was setting in. But leave it to Kate Middleton to shake things up: yesterday she attended the Tusk Conservation Awards in a shimmering Jenny Packham gown that would have been right at home on the TIFF red carpet. It was Will and Kate’s first evening out together since the birth of Prince George and the little royal got a shout out when his father spoke during the event: “’Catherine and I have recently become proud parents of a baby who has a voice to match any lion’s roar. This is our first evening out without him… please excuse us if you see us nervously casting surreptitious glances at mobiles.”
Adorable! But let’s get back to what Kate was wearing. While it’s known that the sequin-studded dress is Jenny Packham, die-hard Middleton fans have been debating which collection it’s actually from.

Kate Middleton wears Ralph Lauren and Zara for her first official appearance since the birth of Prince George
We may not get another glimpse of Prince George for quite some time, but Kate Middleton seems quite eager to be back in the public eye. This morning the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made their first official royal appearance together since the birth of Prince George—who stayed at home with Grandma Middleton. The couple appeared at the Ring O’ Fire Coastal Ultra Marathon, a weekend-long race that circles the entire Isle of Anglesey and looks both super beautiful and super terrifying. Of course, we’d like to imagine that all the runners got an extra boost of adrenaline and encouragement upon seeing that Kate had come out to wish them well at the start line.

Kate Middleton looks stunning while grocery shopping in a striped Ralph Lauren tee and skinny jeans
It’s been five weeks since the birth of Prince George and Kate Middleton is finally out, about and back to her usual Anglesey life of grocery shopping and looking flawless. Today she was captured by PopSugar outside a local Waitrose—the upmarket grocery chain that Pippa happens to write a monthly column for—and, well, it’s pretty much like royal baby? What royal baby?

Prince George poses with Lupo and Kate Middleton is in fuchsia for the royal baby’s first official pictures
See the first official photos of Prince George »
Hello, Baby George! The first official pictures of the future King of England were released last night and the reviews are, well, mixed. In breaking with royal protocol, the pictures were taken by Kate Middleton’s father and not a professional. (Before the rumours of an amateur photog started swirling last week, Mario Testino was a favourite to take the pics, as he was behind the couple’s official engagement pictures.) This decision is a clear sign that Will and Kate are going their own way when it comes to raising George—they did, after all, spend his first few weeks at the Middleton family home in Bucklebury and not at Kensington Palace as is typical royal tradition.
We support Will and Kate’s do-it-yourself (ish) intentions, even if it means that the first official pictures of Prince George are slightly fuzzy and not properly lit. The two official photos show the couple outside—presumably somewhere on the Middleton’s sprawling property—with Kate holding George in the same swaddling blanket he wore outside St. Mary’s hospital. Also important: Take a look at Lupo! Now that’s a happy royal dog.

UPDATED: Kate Middleton and baby! The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge debut their little prince outside the Lindo Wing
See this look in our Kate Middleton slideshow »
He’s here! He’s here! After about a day since being born, His Royal Highness the Prince of Cambridge aka. Royal Baby was debuted to a media mob outside the Lido Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital in London just after 2pm EST. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were as photogenic and amiable as always (and matchy matchy in cornflower blue!), making our sappy royalist hearts swell even more with vicarious Royal Baby joy. The duo followed quite a similar course to what Prince Charles and Princess Diana did with Prince William back in 1982, though we can only estimate that the audience, and immediate attention has grown tenfold since. The duo gave some short interviews which include quips from Will: “He has her looks, thankfully. [He] has more hair than me” and “He’s got a good pair of lungs, that’s for sure. He’s a big boy. He’s quite heavy. We’re still working on a name.”

As we reported earlier, a garment bag was delivered to the hospital for Kate which carried today’s outfit, a bespoke Jenny Packham blue polka dot crepe de chine dress and Pied a Terre Imperia wedges. In true symbolic Kate Middleton style, the dress matches the same shade and pattern as Diana’s did when she debuted Will 31 years ago in the same exact spot.

Kate Middleton baby countdown: The Queen wants to go on holiday so could the royal baby hurry up?
See Kate Middleton’s maternity looks »
She may be the Queen of England, but just like us commoners, Kate Middleton’s due date is on her mind and she’s tired of waiting for the royal baby. This morning, while touring the her kingdom, a 10-year-old girl asked the Queen if she was hoping for a boy or girl. Her reply? She “didn’t really mind” either way but it better be soon: “’I’m going on holiday soon so I would like the baby to hurry up and arrive.”

Kate Middleton baby countdown: Prince William interacts with an adorable little girl on the reported royal due date
See Kate Middleton’s maternity looks »
Kate Middleton’s reported royal due date has come and gone with some rather sour headline news taking its place instead over the weekend. Not the outcome we were hoping for, but alas, the best seems yet to come!
While the Royals were awaiting the arrival of Baby Cambridge, they continued on with their otherwise scheduled engagements with an increased camera focus.
As we reported last Wednesday, Prince William and Prince Harry played two polo matches in Hampshire and Berkshire. The first, which was in support of African charities Tusk Trust and Sentebale, pit the two brothers against each other, with Prince Harry’s team coming out on top. The second raised ample funds for a bevy of English charities including Child Bereavement UK, which Kate also supports. During the game, Prince William was photographed interacting with an adorable little pink-hatted girl while sitting on a horse. And thus, our pleasant weekend heading was made.

Emilia Wickstead’s modern take on old world elegance has met its match in the Duchess of Cambridge
See Kate Middleton’s Emilia Wickstead looks »
Emilia Wickstead is a name you’ll start hearing often. Operating on a more feminine frequency than many of her edgy London contemporaries, she sits poised for an international takeover, partly because of her association with another ultra-feminine name: Kate Middleton. Perhaps most directly though, she’s got the chops.
A native New Zealander, 29-year-old grew up with a made-to-measure designer for a mother and ample creativity in her veins. She moved to London to study fashion marketing and spent time in New York interning for Proenza Schouler, Narcisco Rodriguez and Vogue Magazine. After a few years of working made-to-measure, Wickstead launched a ready-to-wear collection in 2011 at London Fashion Week. Fast-forward to today, and she’s gotten Emilia Wickstead creations on the Duchess of Cambridge at least five times by our count, and those five have been amongst Kate’s best and often-repeated pieces. She has also dressed Samantha Cameron, the notoriously fashion-loving wife of British PM David Cameron, and made clients of online retailers Matches and Net-a-Porter.
When we met the designer last month in Toronto, those high-profile connections were especially clear. Dressed in an exquisite low cut A-line dress of her own creation, Wickstead explained why the new brand of sophisticated modernity is all about what isn’t revealed: “I design very much how I dress at 29,” she says. “If I am [wearing] something short, I like to be quite covered on top and if I am wearing something to the knee, I like an open back or a low neck. I think there is something very sexy in the way of dressing like that doesn’t have to be show all and tell all.”

Kate Middleton baby countdown: Will Prince William be playing polo when the royal baby is born?
We’re just three days away from Kate Middleton’s due date (that is, the July 13 date that’s been widely speculated yet never verified by the palace) and it seems there may be a hitch in the Duchess of Cambridge’s birth plan. Today is reporting that the Prince William is scheduled to play in a charity polo match on Sunday—one that is taking place two hours outside of London.
While Kate is supposed to be in Kensington Palace this weekend (due to its proximity to St. Mary Hospital) William’s polo plans take him to Gloucestershire. The Jerudong Trophy Match—which both he and Prince Harry participated in last year—raises funds for two of the Cambridge’s charities: Centrepoint and Child Bereavement UK. Considering that the royal family isn’t exactly known for scheduling conflicts, we think this may be a sign that Kate’s due date is actually later than July 13.
And, because a meeting with your grandmother is only headline-worthy news when she’s the Queen of England, US Weekly magazine has revealed that Prince William had a “secret” meeting with the Queen last week.
