Kate Middleton in Old Faves for Emily McCorquodale's Wedding

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the wedding of his cousin Emily McCorquodale, the daughter of Princess Diana's sister, to James Hutt. As usual Kate tried her best not to outshine the bride by selecting pieces from her wardrobe that have already be worn.

In this case Kate wore the Jenny Packham dress last seen at the polo match in L.A. underneath the light grey Katherine Hooker 'Buxton' coat she sported for the Order of the Garter ceremony last June. For the wedding K-Midd accessorized with the Whiteley hat seen at the Epsom Derby, her faux pearl drop earrings (confirmed as Heavenly Necklaces by Grazia), and the Hobbs' Somerton clutch, which was first spotted during the Canada tour. Kate was also wearing her L.K. Bennett nude pumps.

What do you think of Kate's recycled wedding look? Yes, the dress is a little longer than the coat but, overall, we think this was a pretty good eye at pairing together pieces that have all been worn separately and never together. Good job Katie!

Kate Middleton Stuns in Teal Jenny Packham at Olympic Event

We love when we look at a Kate Middleton outfit and only one word comes to mind: love. This is what we thought when we spotted the Duchess of Cambridge's gown at the Greatest Team Rises Olympic Event. Kate looked gorgeous and glamorous and youthful in her customized Jenny Packham bridal gown (the "Aspen"). We love it all--from the bejewelled belt (we're thinking belts could become a real Kate trademark) to the flowing pleats--but especially the teal colour, the lace and the braids, three things we're pretty much obsessed with around here. Ob-sessed. Not to mention anything that sparkles.

And can we just talk about the back of this gown for a minute? Classy drama. Le sigh. K-Midd, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. And we need to see more of this, glamour and styles that are still very Kate. Can we also say we're pretty much dying over the cap sleeves?

Accessories included Kate's seen before Jimmy Choo Vamp Sandals (first debuted at the BAFTA dinner in L.A.), a teal clutch covered in lace, and a pair of dangly, sparkly earrings.

Kate Middleton is a Grecian Goddess in Jenny Packham

A new Kate sighting! This time at an event hosted by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at St. James’s Palace for the National Memorial Arboretum Appeal. Kate wore a custom Jenny Packham design, which the designer described as a "silver chiffon satin asymmetric gown." We're fans. Even if the colour is muted we think it suits Kate, as does the artful draping and one-shoulder design (and, no, we don't think it has anything to do with hiding a bun in the oven, either).

Kate accessorized with the same Jimmy Choo heels and diamond bracelet she wore to the BAFTA event in L.A., as well as new crystal drop earrings (confirmed as Beaut Jewellery from a collection available exclusively through Jenny Packham) and a simple red poppy. The event came on the heels of the news that Prince William will be stationed in the Falklands for six weeks in 2012, news that the Argentine government apparently did not have a positive reaction to.

Chelsy and Harry in Happier Days

We've admittedly never been big supporters of Chelsy Davy, but a recent Daily Mail story about the royal ex has certainly upped our opinion of her, if true. Apparently Chelsy was offered an astronomical sum to dish the dirt on Prince Harry in a book. Chelsy, who admittedly doesn't want for cash, refused out of loyalty to her ex. At least there is one person out there able to keep their lips zipped in this age of social media and total exposure! The article also goes on to state that it was the royal wedding that made Chelsy realize her relationship with Harry had no future. Apparently, Ms. Davy took one look at all the pomp and circumstance within the fish bowl and knew that the royal life wasn't for her. For his part Harry was said to be quite understanding. How can you not love the ginger Prince?!

Royal Tour of North America: Day 10 - Kate Middleton Wears Floral Jenny Packham to Polo Match

Pattern! Open toed shoes! Bare legs!

We feel like we're making progress here, Kate.

Real progress.

Don't get us wrong, we think you pretty much always look chic, but you don't always look your age or, simply, as attractive as you could.

We love this floral Jenny Packham because it not only does justice to Kate's ultra trim figure, but also because it makes her look young and happy and all that jazz.

Outfit win!

Oh, and Wills? This is the best we've seen you look all tour. Props.

Kate's pale pastel floral dress is the hand-painted chinoiserie De Gournay from Jenny Packham's Spring/Summer 2011 collection.

The strappy, open-toed taupe sandals that the Duchess wore to the polo match are the LK Bennett Silver Sandal in Taupe. Kate also wore her monogrammed bracelet, Kiki Mcdonough citrine drop earrings, and the L.K. Bennett Natalie straw box clutch, which we've seen many times before.

Royal Tour of North America: Day 8 - Kate in Yellow, Arriving in Calgary

After spending the night in a remote cabin that had been retro-fitted especially for their visit, William and Kate headed to a chalet in Lake Louise to change and get ready for the day ahead. Arriving in Calgary they had to deal with some ridiculous wind that wreaked havoc with Kate's flirty dress, and also spent time with an adorable cancer patient whose wish it was to meet a Princess.

So we finally get some colour and, yet, we're not really feeling it. This dress is nice and all. Cheery and summery, but it feels kind of old. Kind of...Little House on the Prarie or Sister Wives or something. Maybe its the high neckline and those fabric-covered buttons. We think Kate's yellow Jenny Packham could have benefitted from some personal styling like a chic belt.

The dress above is similar in style to the yellow

primrose dress that Kate wore.

Accessories included the L.K. Bennett Sledge2 nude pumps and Natalie straw clutch, as well as the Kiki Mcdonough citrine drop earrings and the unidentified diamond-by-the-yard bracelet.

There are certain times when you see someone in a particular dress or outfit and you just know that the sartorial gods are pleased. Such was our reaction when we spotted Kate Middleton in pale pink and sequined Jenny Packham at the ARK Gala. The Duchess looked relaxed, young, happy, feminine--in short, this dress was made for her (although not, you know, literally).

Anyone still think that Kate can't do high fashion as well as she does high street? This is your notice. The Duchess seems to be ready to play in the big leagues, and while we'll likely never see her in anything too fashion forward this definitely seems a step in the right direction.

And have we mentioned that we're almost as obsessed with Gossip Girl as we are with KMidd? Well, we are. And we just know that somewhere Blair Waldorf is smiling (and scheming, naturally) knowing she bested Middleton by donning a very similar Packham first, although if you'll recall Blair's wasn't floor-length.

So who do you think wore Packham better - Kate or Blair?

Or do you love both princesses-in-waiting equally?
