CopyKate: A Cheaper Version of the Duchess' Jimmy Choo Lovely Blush Pumps

via fabsugar.com

Kate Middleton's Jimmy Choo Lovely blush coloured pumps are really a very classic kind of shoe. The style and colour mean you can wear these shoes until they fall apart on you and with a ton of different outfits. Of course, even taking their versatility into account, not everyone can spring for the real deal, which is why we have to say thanks to ALDO for providing us with a similar version for much, much less.

Allow us to introduce the Arnoldoa in Taupe.

Only $49.98 and available in sizes 5 through 11.

Happy Shopping!

Kate Middleton at Private Tour of Buckingham Palace Exhibit with Queen

Here are the first photos of the Duchess of Cambridge and Queen Elizabeth at the opening of the dress exhibit at Buckingham Palace today. We kind of love the fact that QEII took one look at the headless mannequin and proclaimed, "It's made to look very creepy." Awesome. And she's kinda right.

We'll get back to you on Kate's simple neutral shift, which has a drapey (that is a technical term) V-neck and three-quarter length sleeves. Kate's wearing her Jimmy Choo Lovely pumps and that mystery diamond disk necklace {UPDATE: The Duchess' pave necklace is by Asprey London}. The dress looks like Joseph, very close to the Vanessa dress that Kate wore in Charlottetown in colour, fabric and feel. We haven't found the exact dress, though, so we're still on the case!

{UPDATE: See below for dress details.}

And can we say, right off the bat, that although we love you Kate, we're not feeling this dress. C'mon KMidd, we try to defend you when peeps say you're boring and predictable, but you're making our job a lot harder when you show up in dresses like this. Classic, yes, and in any other shade we would have been on board, but this nude business is so...boring. Really, there's no other word for it. Yawn, snooze--okay, guess we found a few more words. Especially next to the Queen looking like a fresh garden in a riotous floral pattern and lipstick!

This Joseph 3/4 length dress is similar to Kate's, although obviously her's has a deeper V-neckline with more drape (almost looks like she pinned it) and the fabric is different.

The Joseph Athena crepe dress is also similar in colour and fabric.

UPDATE:

Above is a photo of "the" dress - the Joseph Scala Crepe dress,

currently on sale on eBay. {Thanks to Tamara for the find!}

Royal Tour of North America: Day 9 - Kate Middleton Wears Green to Reception

via dailymail.co.uk

Day 9 has been quite a busy day for us. Four, yes four, outfit changes. This evening Kate attended a reception in Los Angeles in a grass green Diane Von Furstenberg Maja belted dress. We're not sure why, exactly, but we're feeling this look for Kate.

The back of the dress features a V neckline and a row of buttons.

Kate accessorized with her Jimmy Choo Lovely pumps and a fab leopard-print snakeskin box clutch with gold branch-style clasp, also from Diane von Furstenberg.

Kate's gold earrings are the Temple of Heaven
Girandole Earrings by Cassandra Goad.

The eagle eyed folks over at Diana's Jewels recalled that Kate also

wore these earrings to the wedding of Emilia d'Erlanger in 2010.

And, kind of off topic, but we really need to know:

What the EFF is up with your hair, David?!

Royal Tour of North America: Day 9 - Kate Middleton Arrives in L.A.

William and Kate have touched down in the U.S.--Los Angeles to be exact--for a whirlwind visit. The Duchess exited the plane wearing a perfectly draped pale lavender dress.

Kate arrived in L.A. and attended a business conference wearing a Peridot dress by Roksanda Illinic with nude/pink Jimmy Choo Lovely pumps and her Kiki Mcdonough Grace stud earrings, L.K. Bennett Natalie clutch and that diamonds-by-the-yard bracelet.

Royal Tour of North America: Day 4 - Kate and William Arrive in PEI

Yesterday was all about Kate's grey Catherine Walker, but today we got two outfits. After sporting the blue Erdem in Quebec, Kate changed into a cream coloured dress and soft pink boucle box jacket for her arrival in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

Kate's sleeveless crepe dress is the Vanessa by Joseph, which for her arrival she paired with the pink blazer, that diamonds-by-the-yard bracelet, that diamond disc necklace {UPDATE: Kate's pave diamond disc necklace is by Asprey London} and her Links of London Effervescence Bubble Stiletto Earrings.

Kate's clutch is the L.K. Bennett Natalie, which the

Duchess also wore recently to the Epsom Derby. 

Kate's soft pink heels look a lot like the Lovely by Jimmy Choo, but we can't be sure. UPDATE: Jimmy Choo has confirmed that the Duchess is indeed wearing the Lovely!

Later in the day Kate ditched the jacket and changed

into the L.K. Bennett Sledge court shoes.

Does Kate's pink jacket look familiar to you? It does resemble a Chanel, but we wouldn't be surprised if it was a high street copy. The only info released from the royal press office is that the blazer is an item from the Duchess' waredrobe, which means its likely at least a few seasons old.
