REPLIKATE ROUNDUP
Below are my favourite repliKates of the week:
REPLIKATE REVIEW
My dear friend Katie from the popular Instagram page @katemidleton has kindly reviewed her recent repliKate purchase from Aliexpress:
I think if there's one thing that screams Duchess Kate it is her Stuart Weitzman 'Corkswoon' Wedges which she has worn countless times. This was one of the main reasons I set out to find some repliKates of them, the other being that they are such a beautiful shoe!
I found these incredibly similar wedges on AliExpress for USD $37 with free shipping and pretty much clicked 'buy now' without even thinking about it. They offer the colours hot pink, black, brown, khaki, blue and royal blue with a large selection of sizes. The ones I bought were in the blue colour which are slightly darker than the royal blue ones and more of a similar shade to Kate's. So after buying them on impulse (something I do a little too much), I had some doubts about whether or not they would be true to size or if I could manage to walk around in such a high wedge. When I received them in the mail they came wrapped up carefully in a box with grip pads. Trying them on they seemed a little snug but I kept them on for a while and found that they soon seemed to mold to my feet. They are also very true to size and are very easy to walk in. I also love them because they are so versatile; I can wear them so many places and with so many outfits. I'm not used to wearing heels but have worn these around a few times now they have become quite comfortable! Overall I am very happy with my purchase and recommend them to others looking for a replikate or just a comfy and elegant pair of wedges in general.

BRAND SPOTLIGHT
Each week I like to devote a little time browsing the websites of Kate's favourite brands and designers. Earlier this month, the Duchess surprised us when she attended the Head Together launch wearing a geo-printed skirt from Banana Republic. It was the first occasion we had seen Kate don a piece from from the American fashion retailer. I checked out their new arrivals to see which other styles may catch the eye of our Duchess!
