Advent day 7, and we're all about the style icons. The people you admire, with the outfits you're dying to replicate but for a fraction of the cost. Infact scrap admire, you want to BE them. This post is dedicated to future Queen of Great Britain, and all round godess in every sense, Kate Middleton aka Duchess of Cambridge. Yes, perfect Kate. Heir to the throne Hubby, adorable son, another baby on the way. Amazing wardrobe, fantastic family, cute dog and sensational style. Annoyingly nice person complete with beautiful face and figure. We want it all. In the realisation that we'll never have all those things, the closest we could get is pick some of our fave looks of hers, and find high street alternatives. We are also aware that some of her looks she was pregnant (first time round from what we remember) so we've found some pregancy and non- pregnant alternatives to suit everyone! Pregnant or not pregant, you'll want to replicate Kate's style. And the best part, there's another royal baby on the way, so we can expect to see some more amazing maternity looks in the near future. And for those of you not pregant, after Easter time, we can look forward to some even more stylish outfits. Win Win. Before we commense, there is only one thing left to say: WE LOVE YOU KATE. That is all.
One of our all time fave Kate looks is this stunning Alexander McQueen gown. Kate is a massive fan of Alexander McQueen. But we all knew that right? Her amazing wedding dress being deigned by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen was kinda a big clue. We love everything about this BAFTA dress, from the nipped in waist, to the oodles of flowing fabrics. As lovely as this dress is, we appreciate not everyone can afford the beauty of such dresses. So, we tried to find some alternatives. The fist two dresses are from Coast. They look remarkably similar,but at a fraction of the price. The pastel colours really replicate Kate's dress, without trying to be a direct cheap copy. Although these dresses are not maternity, you probably could get away with it in the early stages. The third dress is from ASOS< and the fourth from Oasis. The burgandy one is also a good replica, but obviously with extra room for a growing tummy. The last dress is not maternity, but gives a great bright alternative to the pastel shades. Basically, you look like Kate but for a half the price, what could be better?
Another of our most desired Kate numbers is this stylish dress and coat combi. Kate is pictured here wearing a Topshop collared shift dress with a plain coat from 'Goat'. This look is so easy to achieve, yet it looks so understated and elegant. And hey, if Topshop is good enough for the future Queen, it's more than good enough for us. If you're looking to inject a touch of colour to the look, then this collared coat from New Look is the answer. It will achieve the desired look, with a twist. Plus keep you warm, and also cheap as chips. If you're looking to stay closer to the original look (and who wouldn't) this plainer number from H&M will do the trick nicely. Radiant as ever, this was one of Kate's first public appearances after announcing the baby news, and suffering from severe morning sickness. Despite this, we think Kate still looks bloody marvvy to be honest. These coats have such a flattering shape, who'd have known she was pregnant here? Well obviously all of us, because we all stalk her, but get the point.
On their recent Australian Tour; Wills, Kate and Baby Prince George stunned the commonwealth country with how easily they had settled into the new dynamic of family life and their genuine happiness. They beamed from ear to ear, embracing everything from War Memorials to play groups for George. Whilst everyone was understandably attempting to catch a glimpse of the new baby Prince, it could have been assumed that Kate's wardrobe might not have created the mass hysteria it has done previously. And being a new mum, K Middy could have easily been forgiven for arriving in her sweatpants and large sunglasses. Or even postponed the tour until Baby George was a little older. However, being the seasoned pro that she is, Kate of course, was on top form. From sunrise to set, not a hair was out of place. And then there was the outfits. This practical but delicate lace dress was the object of many desires. Being in sheer awe of Kate, we were inspired to find some cheaper alternatives at ASOS, Ted Baker and Missguided. For the summer weather, a cool lace pastel dress is a fashion statement. They look great paired with wedges, or with canvas shoes for a more relaxed look.
