Royal Wedding Fashion

Well, I watched it.  I felt a little silly waking up before the sun to watch a stranger's wedding on TV; but once I was up, I was SO glad.  (I even drove over to my sister's house to watch with her... Much more fun with her ridiculous commentary.)

I don't really know how to explain it if you didn't see it yourself, but the royal wedding really was spectacular.  I felt like I was witnessing something really big.  There's so much BAD in the world, it was nice to see the world (or at least Britain and all us nosy Americans) coming together to celebrate something happy.  Kate was a BEAUTIFUL bride - loved her dress - and William just looked so sweet and genuinely happy.  Despite all the hubalub, they both seemed totally down to earth and in love.  (The "second kiss" was just adorable.)
   
 Ok, but enough of that... the big question on my mind this morning is: What in the world would you WEAR if you were invited to the wedding of a future KING and QUEEN?

I know everyone has their own opinions, but... clearly the WORST DRESSED at the event:
Princesses Beatrice & Eugenie (from People)


What did you think?

  4. I agree with everything you said. Kate is so beautiful and they looked like a very happy pair. She is so elegant!

    I loved some of the hats and fascinators I saw (I love that word), but Princess Beatrice's (is that right? the pink hat) hat was hideous. I couldn't believe how many of the women were wearing hats! I only counted two who didn't.

  6. I do love hats -- why don't we wear them more often these days?? -- but seriously those two are dreadful!!

    I didn't get up at the crack of dawn to watch the wedding but I watched the videos on YouTube as soon as I got to work this morning, and *BIG SIGH* the entire experience just made my heart happy. I melted. I'm still melting. The funny thing is that I wasn't really "into it" until my mom called last night all excited to wake up at 4am and wondering if I was going to do the same. LOL

  8. Someone on twitter said their hats looked like they were borrowed from Lady Gaga and I don't disagree. There was also a blue hat that they kept showing that I didn't like. The lady had on elbow-length blue gloves and a blue dress, too.

    I LOVED what Victoria Beckham was wearing and I also really liked the Queen's little take on a top hat. I thought she looked cute.
