Flawless!

Can we say one more time how in love we are with Pip’s outerwear choices?

Kate’s sis did it right again, wearing this amazing navy blue ”Metropolitan Glamour” trenchcoat from designer, FAY (thanks for the tip @Fashion_Critic via Twitter)!

We haven’t been able to find the coat online, but are seriously crushing on the navy gem with beige piping. When and if we find a place to buy, we’ll certainly pass on the info!

Pippa accessorized the look perfectly with a Ri2K “Henshaw Underarm” shoulder bag in Biscuit ($163). The bag seems to be sold out in this color at the Ri2K site, but Ox Blood Red and Black versions are available! A great handbag at a great price!

The Inbetweeners

Wills and Kate were spotted once again this week at the Cineworld in Llandudno Junction, Wales, for a date night! Readers, you may recall that this is the same cinema they took in the movie Bridesmaids back in July.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived through the back door and stopped at the concession stand for snacks before the 8pm showing of The Inbetweeners, a British comedy that follows the lives of four teenage misfits and their wild antics abroad. 

Onlookers told the magazine that the couple were dressed casually in jeans, with Kate wearing her stylish wedge heels. 

Anella Bennett told People Magazine, “They looked like they were in a world of their own. He had his arm around her waist as they walked in, as if he was guiding her. They looked just like any other young couple enjoying a night at the cinema.”

These two are so super-sweet! This is how they keep the romance alive!

Pip Looks a Bit Unhappy with the Weather!

Pippa Middleton was spotted out and about in the rain in London yesterday looking a bit miffed about the weather!

Listen Pip – we’re from Seattle – we get it. You just rarely get a break from the wet stuff. And when it rains during the summer, you’re even more peeved!

Lucky for all of us, where there are raindrops there are opportunities to wear fashionable overcoats! Case in point: Pippa’s awesome grey trench!

Kate’s sis chose the Reiss ‘Eden Belted Mac’ in Charcoal. Although sold out in most sizes, this awesome all-weather coat is described as a “lightweight linen mix fabric with buttoned epauletes, long sleeves, button cuffs, belt loops and front button pockets.”

Best of all? It is on sale right now for a mere $332! Not bad for a piece of outerware that can take you through the entire year!

Well done again, Pip!

Nothing Like Good Quality Time With Sisters!

Looks like the Middletons sisters did a little bit of bonding over the weekend!

Kate and Pippa were spotted on Saturday taking a leisurely stroll down the waterfront at Llanddwyn Island near Wales on Saturday.

Hunter Wellies

Keeping casual far away from the busy streets of London, Kate donned a pale pink cowl-neck sweater with skinny jeans and tan/hunter-green wellies. She carried along a matching cargo jacket in case a chill set in! For a similar look in rain boots, we adore the Hunter ‘Original Tall’ rain boot in ‘New Green’ ($125). Really, we like them in any color. These are a mix of fashion and functionality!

Pippa decided on a cream blouse with a navy blue cardigan, jeans and trainers; accenting the look with her signature aviators.

From the looks of this photo, it seems the two were in quite a deep conversation! We’re happy to see that these two remain so close. There is nothing like a sisterly bond!

Lindsay & Mum Dina Glam-Up for Kardashian Nuptials

Lindsay Lohan “Pulled a Pip” this weekend for Kim Kardashian’s wedding; wearing a white version of the exact same dress Kate’s sis wore to the Royal Wedding reception in April.

Lohan looked quite stunning in the white version of the Temperley gown, accessorizing the look with a sexy up-do and diamond accessories.

We hope she pulled the look off all night as we hear Linds was seen downing shots at the bar…and we all know how that always turns out for her!

Readers – sound off! Who wore the look best…Pippa or Lindsay?

Wills & Kate Headed to Meet Families of the Riot Victims

Readers, we finally have a Kate sighting this week!

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge spent their Friday visiting the Summerfield Community Centre in Winson Green, Birmingham. The center is near Dudley where three men were killed during last week’s riots. The victims were killed when they were struck by a car while trying to protect shops and homes from looters.

William and Kate first had a private meeting with the families of the men who were killed before they also met with dignitaries, citizens and emergency workers from the area.

In keeping with her love of navy, Kate sported a nautical themed blue pencil skirt with gold button detailing ($995) and a cream blouse with matching buttons and navy blue military style detailing ($1,355). Both items are from the Alexander McQueen by Sarah Burton and are currently available at Net-A-Porter. She completed the look with navy blue suede heels. As always, Wills wore his trusty navy suit – and looked very handsome we might add!

Mandy Sankey, nurse manager at Birmingham Children’s Hospital, told The Mail that William and Kate seemed “genuinely interested” in how hospitals in the city responded to the disorder. She said, “William said “We’re sure you have already heard how grateful we are but we wanted to come here to say thank you in person.”  She added, “They seemed genuinely interested in how we dealt with it.”

Lesley Clare, a nurse at Birmingham’s City Hospital seemed to be quite taken with the Duchess, “Kate was saying it must have been really hard to keep the services going. I asked her if it was still OK to say congratulations on the wedding and she laughed and said “Yes, it is still OK to say it, thank you.”

We really love how Wills and Kate connect with the public. They do seem to be very sincere in the way they care about their country and its citizens. Way to go, Windsors!

Mum & Daughter Bonding Time!

Pippa and Carole Middleton spent some mum/daughter time together today on King’s Road!

After a quick trip to the ATM for some cash, we presume the ladies were headed to do some High-Street Shopping!

Pippa looked fab in a navy and white color-blocked dress with a grey blazer. She accented the look with her signature Modalu “Pippa” handbag in Oyster ($321) and navy peep-toe pumps.

Carole proved again where her daughters get their stunning looks and great bodies! Sporting a more casual look for the day, Pip and Kate’s mum chose a red and white flowy dress with tan flats and a navy handbag.

Looking good ladies!

Are Reese Witherspoon & Kate Becoming BFFs?

Reese & Kate Bond at the Tusk Trust Event

Readers, if you buy into what you read in InTouch Weekly, then Kate may have a new BFF in her life!

The mag is reporting that the Duchess has struck up a friendship with goodie-actress Reese Witherspoon. The two met during Will and Kate’s trip to LA in July at a benefit brunch for Tusk Trust.

A source reveals that the ladies ”instantly bonded” and have been emailing each other often and calling any chance they get.

We’re not sure how much we believe this, but if Kate is going to have a friend in Tinseltown, Reese is probably a good bet. The gal is pretty classy, is a newlywed herself and seems to be a great mom! Come to think about it…they have quite a bit in common!

We may not be a pro when it comes to children but Kate, if you need any other bitches to lend an ear…you know where to find us!

Pippa Looking Lovely in Leather!

While Kate continues keeping a low-profile, we caught another sighting of sister Pippa today in London.

On the heels of a weekend of watching boyfriend Alex Loudon play in a cricket match, Pip was back-to-the-grind (whatever that may be) today wearing an adorable “safety pin” print dress accented with her favorite quilted cropped black leather jacket. Both are from her go-to High-Street favories Whistles.  She paired the look with a tan clutch and trusty wedge shoes.

Braiden Jacket

A quick trip to the Whistles site reveals that both the dress and jacket are out of stock – not surprising given that we are at the turn of the fashion season!

Fear not, readers! We have a couple of great options for you to rock the black jacket look. Sure, where you are it might be a zillion degrees outside, but Fall is coming soon and you know a nice cropped leather number is a MUST for your cool-weather wardrobe!

If you’re gunning for a real splurge we totally recommend the “Braiden Jacket” from Tory Burch. This is one of our favorites we’ve seen in our pre-season shopping! The jacket has amazing quilted detailing on both the front and back of the jacket with zipper detailing on the sleeves.

Sure you might not have any money left to pay for groceries for the next couple of months, but you wanted to kick-start a diet anyway for your winter holiday…right?

(Minus the) Leather

If you’re looking to save some dollars (and be kind to animals in the process), we highly recommend the “(Minus the) Leather Quilted Jacket” from Express. This super-cute faux-leather gem has side-zipper pockets and sleeves and at $118, is right on the money!

Also, the look is available in four colors: Espresso, Clay, Cognac and Pitch Black. Heck, for this price – get one in every color! You’ll be ready for the cool temps in no time!

Pip & Alex Embrace!

Readers, we FINALLY have a Middleton sighting!

We know that postings have been a bit sparse as of late and for that we apologize. It’s just a little difficult to write about the Kate and Pippa when they’re keeping on the D.L.

Thankfully, Pip braved the warm London weather today to watch boyfriend Alex Loudon play in a cricket match.

Alex, a former professional cricketer for England now captains his alma-mater’s team the Eton Ramblers.

Looking fab in a polka-dotted red dress and cream flats, Pippa proudly watched from the sidelines as the Ramblers battled against the Old Malvernians in the finals of the Cricketer Cup at the London Shenley Club in Hertfordshire.

Despite Alex’s efforts to lead his team to victory the Old Malvernians won by four wickets.

By the way, we have no idea what wickets are or anything really about cricket in general. If you’re interested, head on over to Wikipedia for a quick rundown of the game!

Pip and Alex put rumors of trouble in paradise to bed by embracing on the field. The pair even shared a kiss during the match!

Looks like love to us!

It's Good to Be Queen
