NEWS

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.

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!

MIX & MATCH

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.
