William and Kate are on their way to Canada -- having departed Heathrow airport on a Canadian Air Force jet. Kate was seen wearing her first Canadian designer (Smythe) and one of her favourite colours of late (navy; second only to white).
The Duchess wears Smythe's one-button Cutaway-Back Blazer
in wool-crepe paired with the Manon Dress from Roland Mouret.

Kate accessorized with Manolo Blahnik Calogera court
shoes and the Polly Push Lock Bag (Small) from Mulberry.
What do you think of Kate's look?
I love the blazer and the bag, but I
think it almost borders on stewardess chic.
Floral Explosion: Erdem S/S 2011 |
William and Kate are set to touch down in Ottawa today at around 2pm, and of course what everyone is wondering is what--or, rather, who--Kate will be wearing during her North American tour. Now that Smythe has already been confirmed the other smart money is on the now UK-based Erdem.
And have you been wondering about the chain charm bracelet that Kate has been sporting lately? At the recent event for the Irish Guard Armed Forces, Kate accessorized her custom navy Alexander McQueen military-inspired coat and matching dress with navy Prada heels, a Anya Hindmarch Marano clutch, a clover pin from the regiment, the Duchess' often seen Kiki McDonough Drop Earrings in Citrine, a hat by Rachel Trevor-Morgan, and the bracelet. Then Kate appeared at Wimbledon in another white dress (this time the layered and ruffled Moraiah Dress from Temperley London) paired with her trusty nude Sledge2 pumps from L.K. Bennett and the bracelet. {For those interested, Temperley is reissuing the Moraiah and you can register your interest here.}
According to the Daily Mail the bracelet was in fact a wedding gift from Camilla. One side of the charm features Kate's new monogram (curly 'C' under a coronet) and the other side features Camilla's (also a 'C' under a coronet, but with the letter in a circle).
Pippa Middleton sent tongues wagging when she showed up at Wimbledon with Alex Loudon, her apparently on-again boyfriend. Pippa wore a red dress (the Hobbs NW3 Wylde)--the same she was seen wearing when out shopping the day before at Russell and Bromley--and her trusty Modalu bag.
