Kate Middleton's Zara Dress

When Prince William and Kate Middleton announced their engagement in November media interest in Kate and her style increased incredibly. At first I thought her "style icon" status was way over rated. I thought her style was a bit boring and not worth all the buzz. This past week I was pleasantly surprised with her pre-wedding and post-wedding style. Not to mention the two beautiful Alexander McQueen dresses she chose to wear for her big day.

William and Kate (or the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, if you want to be official) were photographed leaving Buckingham Palace the day after their wedding. Kate is wearing a blue pleated dress from Zara. I don't think we will ever see her wearing something crazy but I think this is a perfectly classic and simple look. I want the dress!


Pleated Dress from Zara.com $89.90

What do you think?


* Does anyone know why the spacing was crazy on Mondays post? I wasn't able to fix it and in the blogger editor it looked totally normal :/

    I've never really thought her fashion was breath-taking, but I definitely do think it's extremely chic and classic. She always looks gorgeous, that's for sure!

    Kate looks wonderful :)
    and the spacing problem... hmm... I have this too sometimes and I can't ever figure out why. Do you have the advanced post editor? Then maybe you checked the wrong html thingy, I don't know what it's called in English... I have my settings in Dutch x) x

    I think Kate's style is admirable-elegant and understated, but always well tailored. Here's hoping more women are inspired by her!

    because blogger is lame :)
    so yes, kate's style isn't fashion icon worthy i'm sure, but she does pull off some cute things!

    I think I become more of a fan of Kate Middleton every day. I'm not sure why. Maybe I'm just giving in to the media buzz. I think I just like the story of a working woman becoming a princess.

    Well spotted- I love Kate's style!

    Yes, blogger can be very unpredictable. If you are using Windows, you should download windows live writer and write your posts using this. It is free to download, just google for instructions. It makes everything a lot easier to edit/ mess around with before publishing. If you have any trouble, feel free to drop me an email and I'll help!

    I agree, her style is simple but I kind of like that about her. This dress is gorgeous--I wouldn't mind traipsing around in it myself!
    And Blogger does weird things with spacing ALL the time on my blog.

    a. i wish i could help on the spacing. i could just slap blogger sometimes. HARD

    b. i was so happy to see her in zara. she has such an attainable, like-able way about her. wouldn't mind to snag that dress myself and it's not even really my style.

    xo,
