Duchess Kate

Who doesn't adore Duchess Kate? She defines classic-modern style. She exudes grace and beauty.  She is a lady inside and out.  Just this past week she and William celebrated their third anniversary. Hard to believe that three years have passed since the world watched the idyllic fairytale wedding take place.

The divine dress by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen captured her simple yet elegant presence, framing her place on the royal scene.  With each appearance, the public falls more in love with the stately duchess.

   If you too enjoy peeking in, glimpsing from time to time into the grand life of Catherine Duchess  of Cambridge then visit http://hrhduchesskate.blogspot.com for continual updates.  You'll find tons of photos as well as up-to-date info on recent outings.  One trip you won't find on the site is Kate's visit to Memphis this weekend, only William and Harry went.  Sad news for someone like me--I was looking forward to seeing the outfits she'd wear to the "Birthplace to Rock 'n Roll."

  So, as not to feel disappointed, I imagined styles the princess might wear.   First she would arrive in the city embracing the country/rock 'n roll style in something like this:
