That dress are in wonderful color. Idea is lovely. But I dont like her black purse and black shoes. it wants something more original.

as far as I know, pashmina is a mixture of cashmere and silk in a special relation. I don't know the exact relation, I think I've heard it was 60/40 or 70/30(probably more cashmere). I've got an "original" pashmina with 90/10 but considering the price it can't be original.

This dress looks similair to what she was trying on tight, the criss cross ribbon on the front part of the dress. I believe it was a red gown and white gown in the picture it might have been from Point Devue?. I can't find the article with the pic in it maybe someone can locate and post it?:)

I was on the BCBG Maxazria site and came across the dress! I was like "hmm...that dress looks familiar" .

I think the model wore the dress better because her hair is swept up. I think a halter top is much sexier when a bit of the back and shoulders are exposed.

Here's the post Amy!

I think the blue dress is gorgeous! It looks great on her. IMO, the black shoes and bag balanced out the vibrant blue color of the dress.

[HRHAmy]

Thank you so much Socal Girl that was the one I was looking for!! Thanks again! And yes I do like how the model is wearing the dress better but Kate looked very nice in it too.:)

The green dress outfit looks very 'Jigsaw'...and probably is.

[English Rose]

I don't if anyone has mentioned this before. But http://www.rexfeatures.com/ (sorry I don't have an account) has more pictures of Kate in the pretty green dress. It also has pictures of the shops Kate visited that day... including tm lewin (shirtmakers), blue velvet (vintage clothes), lk bennett, peter jones, richard ward (hairdresses) and the various cafes she goes to.

[Duchess]

it's funny that people refer to "kate's designers". i don't think anyone is designing for her(correct me i'm wrong) unless it's someone completely unknown but i think it's safer to say that she's buying her clothes off the rack. however, she does have amazing style.

Yeah, that's it. thanks. It's Item #LPE63536. $358. I like the dress and it's a very good price, though I wonder if it wouldn't look better in red?!

Some of this is already well-known, but in any case, I thought I would post it for those who might not know some or any of it.... Well, rex features says that Katie shops at the Patrick Mavros boutique in Fulham Road, and Kensington High Street's Topshop and Miss Sixty, and Blue Velvet for shoes (also in Kensington High Street); Peter Jones in Sloane Square; TM Lewin in King's Road (a men's shop? where she buys things for the males in her life, I guess); and LK Bennett, also in King's Road. And she buys sports wear at the King's Road Sporting Club.


Not really related to fashion: Rex also says she like the Montparnasse Cafe and also a Starbucks in King's Road, and the Bluebird Cafe and Restaurant.

I originally thought that Kate's white dress was another one from BCBG Max Azria because the bottom of both dresses had the same kind of design but they're not the same dress. Does anybody know the designer of the white dress?

a new outfit for Kate, I haven't seen this top before, it's a little dowdy to me but she looks nice overall. White pants look good on her for some reason, maybe it's because she's skinny.

Her outfit and 'look' in this is v similar to that of CP Mary in a photo from her Australia trip 2005 (sorry cant find picture to compare).

[coolgirl]

i'm kinda confused when kate wore this outfit. it's somehow different from the classic pieces she usually wears. this link is http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...iddleton/1.jpg
and another

She kinda reminds me of Lauren "LC" Condrad of MTV's The Hills & Laguna Beach, don't ya think?

[Sister Morphine]

I love that blue dress from BCBG that she wore. That color looks phenomenal on her, and it fit her to a T.
