Beauty...and the boring |
These days I feel like I can't peruse a fashion website or gossip magazine without stumbling across a photo of Kate Middleton. Luckily, I'm quite fond of The Dutchess. First off, I think she's pretty adorable, and, to be completely honest, I could NEVER do what she does. Well I'm pretty sure I could honeymoon in Seychelles... and travel first class all around the world pretending to support random charities...I'm sorry, what exactly does she do? Well I know one thing, and that is that I could never smile at people constantly, and I DEFINITELY could not pull off dressing cute and totally conservative all the time. I'd probably have weekly meltdowns where the prince would catch me trying to sneak out the palace window in a gold sequined dress or 5 1/2 inch red stillettos in the name of freedom and jerseyness. I'd inevitably be caught mid-shimmy, hanging onto a gargoyle and pondering whether or not losing the shoes was most appropriate tactic for a graceful landing. Prince William had a pretty clear understanding that you can take the girl out of Jersey, but you just can't take the Jersey out of the girl... hence our amicable parting of ways.

An appropriate outfit for a Coraldial reception |
Typically I respect that Kate's outfits are cute, but I wouldn't buy 90% of them... until The Dutchess showed up in these adorable coral colored jeans. I don't blog much about pants... maybe because I'm currently struggling to fit back into my own, but apparently The Dutchess has sparked quite the coral jean frenzy across the UK. I'd hate for all of you ladies to be a year behind our fashionable friends across the pond like always. Granted colored jeans have been around for a least a year now, but the orange-coral color in a medium to dark shade is new, adorable, flattering, and very "summery". They look particularly great in a skinny jean cut with a lace ivory top, navy, gray, or classic stripes. So I present to you a range of colors from more tangerine to coral to dark pink for a variety of options.
