One Hat, Four Coat Dresses

One of the hats most on the Duchess of Cambridge is this Whitely designed natural straw beret. Kate has paired this hat with four light-hued dress and coat combinations.

Never been a fan of this or similar – I always think of the wide curls of chocolate that often decorate cake tops when I see these see nothing wrong with Duchess Kate NOT being a fashion icon.There are plenty of British royal women who aren’t (Princess Anne, Princess Alexandra, Duchess of Kent) After what happened with Diana, I don’t think it’s suprising at all that Kate is not turning out to be a fashion icon. In fact, I think that was her and William’s plan all along.
