Old School Stylings: Kate Middleton at Charlie Savory's Wedding


Can we say hot mess? Not sure that any of the individual pieces here are offensive (except for maybe the hair flowers), but Kate Middleton looked kind of horrible at the wedding of Charlie Savory in 2010.


KMidd sported the same pink double-breasted jacket she wore to Peter Phillip's wedding in 2008 (with the same pink satin heels) paired with the lace dress (likely Collette Dinnigan) she wore to Laura Parker-Bowles' wedding. Kate accessorized with what looks like the Asprey button pendant necklace and a beaded clutch.


We're thinking that what really throws this whole outfit off is happening from the neck up. Whatever it is, it's not working. No. Just...no.


Kate was seen wearing the same dress at the Young Stalin
book party that she attended with Pippa in 2007.
And she's wearing a watch, something we haven't seen in awhile.


Update: Kate's gold lace dress has been confirmed as Collette Dinnigan by the designer.

Old School Stylings: Kate Re-Wears Gold Brocade Coat to Oli Baker Wedding


For the wedding of old flatmate Oli Baker in Scotland, Kate Middleton recycled the champagne gold Day Birger et Mikkelsen brocade coat that she wore to Laura Parker-Bowles' wedding. Kate changed up the accessories -- opting for a black fascinator from Jane Corbett (the same she wore to Peter Phillips' wedding sans net), black patent heels and a black clutch.

Old School Stylings: Kate Middleton Plays the Lady in Red at Wedding of Emilia D'Erlanger


When Kate Middleton and Prince William attended the 2010 wedding of pals David Jardine-Paterson and Emilia D'Erlanger, KMidd definitely wasn't looking to blend into the crowd.


Instead Miss. Catherine Middleton decided on a draped, bright red Issa dress (with a dramatic backview), a flower-and-net fascinator (we're not huge fans), gold jewelry, and dark accessories including a clutch and simple black patent pumps. Definitely the kind of look that will get you noticed.


Kate's earrings were the Temple of Heaven Gold Girandole Earrings by Cassandra Goad. No word on whether Emilia D'Erlanger, once touted as a possible future Mrs. for William, was at all ticked that the then-possible future Queen of England showed up at her wedding in bright, bright red with fascinator to match.


The pretty bride wore a rather simple off-the-shoulder dress, carried a bouquet of wildflowers and had a simply stunning tiara that was just bananas. We think it's mostly the aquamarines of the d'Erlanger family tiara that made us fall head over heels, but we also love how Emilia chose to wear it headband-style. And doesn't Emilia's engagement ring look oddly...familiar?

Old School Stylings: Kate Middleton Wears Blue Issa at Harry Meade's Wedding

Okay, so this one isn't really old school, but it definitely is pre-engagement. Well, pre-engagement announcement anyway, as reports suggest that by this point Prince William had already popped the question.

At Harry Meade's wedding in October 2010, William and Kate made an appearance walking in together--something they rarely did before--suggesting that their relationship was being kicked up a notch.

We l-o-v-e Kate's electric blue Issa dress, mostly for the cobalt blue colour, and we think KMidd really pulled off that understated sophisticated chic she does so well. We're liking the addition of the simple black blazer, clutch and pumps too. The wide brimmed Philip Somerville hat is also pretty fab. What we're not feeling? The pinky ring. Sorry, Kate.
