There’s Kate Middleton

Kate is having a baby. Big news of course. Now I certainly do not want to trivialise anyone’s morning sickness, but I kind of expected the porcelain doll to spend her first three months nestling on a sofa with a cup of tea and dry biscuit. Complete opposite to Blake Lively who is like a highly pregnant sex bomb, frequenting red carpets with dresses cut to her navel.

Kate and Blake, both women with a heavy reputation for being style icons, only the one has a tad more glamour clinging to her behind. They have different jobs of course and Kate obviously has her grandmother-in-law whispering in her ear to keep it classy and royal appropriate. This week, after 11 weeks spent dipping biscuits in tea, her entree.

Kate is Kate so she does it with British designers. They are a plenty so that can’t be the problem. Her black dress from Temperley London was beautiful. If you look very carefully, you can see a slight swelling in the tummy area.

She chose Alexander McQueen for the next event, amazing label, but this jacket-dress was so prissy that it seems to have the Prince Charles and her royal Camilla stamped all over it. Girl you should shake it up a little.

A Jenny Packham was brought from the rack for the next presentation, and dear, sweet Kate tried to do an Angelina Jolie. Think bared leg.

I love Kate and adore her style but this week…Let’s just say that I don’t think she spent much of the past 11 weeks reading fashion magazines.
