Easter is nearly here so I thought I'd put together a couple Duchess-inspired outfits for the holiday!  For the first outfit I took inspiration from Kate's love of polka dot frocks to create an ensemble fit for an Easter Sunday church service.  The pink spotted a-line dress by Hobbs works well for both northern and southern hemisphere climates when teamed with black cropped jacket and suede accessories. Kate's Links of London 'Hope Egg' earrings are an apt choice for the Christian celebration!

SHOP THE OUTFIT: Dress | Jacket | Clutch | Hat | Earrings | Shoes

Below is a casual outfit perfect for the traditional Easter egg hunt with the kids!

Each week I like to devote a little time browsing the websites of Kate's favourite brands and designers. This week, many of the new season pieces from LK Bennett caught my eye. I came across these Duchess-worthy styles by the British fashion retailer:

A lot has happened on the Kate-front since the last Wrap-Up on 4th March.  The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge undertook their much-anticipated visit to Paris last weekend. As expected, there was a fair share of sartorial diplomacy on Kate's part as she blended the best of both British and French fashion.

We got our first look at Kate in Chanel, and the ensemble was a clear favorite amongst Kate's Closet readers! Over 42% of voters thought it was the best look of the Paris trip.

This week, the Duchess was back on home soil and back in British label Eponine for the launch of a series of maternal mental health films titled 'Out of the Blue'.  She spoke at the launch, and shared her experiences on motherhood. Click to read more >

I will be away from Wednesday to Sunday (8tth - 12 March) so unfortunately I will not have time to produce this week's Wrap-Up.

Also, I will not have time to produce next week's newsletter because I will be busy blogging about the the Duke & Duchess' two-day royal tour of Paris which will commence on Friday 17th March!

The Duchess of Cambridge sparkled this week in two new outfits! The first was the shimmery 'Erdem 'Rhona' Long-Sleeve Pleated Lace Dress for the UK-India Year of Culture recpetion at Buckingham Palace. She teamed it with glittering  Oscar de la Renta Platinum Lamé Cabrina Pumps and Anita Dongre Kundan Pearl Drop Earrings.

The next day she debuted a blue Rebecca Taylor sparkle tweed skirt suit to officially open the Ronald McDonald Evelina London House in Lambeth.

Kensington Palace revealed that the Duke and Duchess will make an official visit to Poland and Germany this July! More details will be released in due time.

Kate's outfits are impeccable but can sometimes need a little tweaking for us "normal folk" to adapt for daily wear.   In this occasional segment, I show how you can create everyday repliKate outfits by mixing and matching key pieces with your wardrobe essentials! 

St. Patricks Day is just around the corner and unfortunately the Duchess will miss this year's traditional parade (boo) because she will be in on an official visit to Paris (yay!). 

After coming across this cute pine hued dress by Hobbs London (which I can see Kate wearing), it inspired the outfit collage below. It offers a modest approach to the Duchess' ceremonial-style St Patrick's Day outfits.

​Each week I like to devote a little time browsing the websites of Kate's favourite brands and designers.  This week, when I saw Kate back in Rebecca Taylor, it motivated me to take a look at the New Zealand-born fashion designer's  current collection. I came across these Duchess-worthy styles:
