If The Crown Fits

Friday, April 01, 2011

For this Fashion Friday during my Countdown to the Royal Wedding Week, it’s obvious that I must channel someone that is about to become one of the biggest fashion icons of our generation – Kate Middleton.

It was only fitting that Kate chose one of her favorite deisgners, Issa, during the press conference to announce her engagement. Kate’s wore Issa designs on a number of occasions and now you can too. These stunners below are from Net-a-Porter.

To accessorize like the soon to be princess, you of course need some royal jewels. Here is a replica ring from The UK Gift Company.

In the official engagement photos, Kate wore these white topaz earrings from Links of London.

And while Kate will soon wear a crown on her head, she’s favored fascinators for special events. It’s rumored that famed designer Phillip Treacy will be creating headpieces for the royal wedding party. Here’s a fancy fascinator from Amazon.com.


According to People.com, Kate is a fan of boots from Aquatalia. While I’m personally banishing boots from my wardrobe on April 1st until October 1st (personal style tradition), I encourage you to stock up on some of these in the off season to channel your inner Kate!
