The Royal Wedding

Only because everyone is obsessed it seems, I had to post on the Royal Wedding. I am actually more interested in what they wore as opposed to all the festivities. I mean happy for them and all, but i guess i just wasn't bitten by the royal wedding bug. So here goes...


Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen was the designer of Kate Middleton's dress. I was expecting more frills and what not, but was pleasantly surprised by simple elegance of it.


Mother of the bride, Carole Middleton,was all smiles in all baby blue.

Grand-daughters to Queen Elizabeth II, Princess Eugenie wore a cobalt blue Vivienne Westwood outfit, while Princess Beatrice wore a blush Valentino number, both in Phillip Treacy hats. (Do they look like Cinderella's evil step-sisters?)


Celebrity royalty David and a pregnant Victoria Beckham. (Hands down my choice for best dressed, but maybe I am biased. Posh can do no wrong in my books). David wore a more traditional penguin tail coat, while Victoria wore six-inch Louboutin's and a dress of her own design, head-piece also by Phillip Treacy.

Tara Palmer Tomkinson.....hmmmm?

UK Prime Minister, David Cameron and wife Sarah, who, while looking fine in a ruched silk-crepe Burberry dress, was the only invited female guest to have not worn a hat.

Maid of honour, Pippa, the bride's sister, also wore Alexander McQueen designed by Sarah Burton.

Prince William opted to wear the official uniform for a Colonel of the Irish Guards, one of his honorary titles. Quite dashing if I may say so.

Princess Letizia of Spain looked fabulous in a monochrome ensemble; a sheer-and-lace dress with floral embroidery accessorized with matching satin pumps and a netted-feathered hat.

The Queen herself looked every bit the lady in a sunny Angela Kelly wool crepe dress and coat paired with a ladylike satchel and pumps, pearls and diamond brooch.

Harry looked dashing in the uniform of the Captain of the Household Cavalry, a navy blue military suit with aiguilettes, cross-belt and gold waist belt.

Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and Prince Daniel of Sweden looked terrific. I love the peach colour on Victoria, and the sun hat! And that wrap detail is very chic.

Chelsea Davy, Prince Harry's on-again, off-again girlfriend chose a teal Alberta Ferretti dress and jacket combo paired with a fascinator by Victoria Grant. Another hmmmmm?
Zara Phillips, eldest grand-daughter to Queen Elizabeth II, arrived with fiance English rugby star, Mike Tindall. Zara, wore a Phillip Treacy hat, and what appears to be an Akris coat-dress.
