    Am I crazy? Why is there no pic? Was the sight of Kate’s toes TOO HOT FOR THE INTERNET?

    It feels so WEIRD to see her in open-toed, strappy (!) slightly raised (!) glittery (!) heels!! Like the world is upside down. I don’t know how to feel.

    Also, though I do NOT agree with a recent Daily Mail article that she should give herself a Diana haircut… it seemed like this would have been one of the gowns to go half-up, half-down at least for. With the high neck, and her hair so much over her shoulders, it seemed a little offbalance. But these are nitpicks from a big fan.

    Wow. I love everything about this. And I have been spending the last two hours checking shoes on the internet because I need some fancy ones for work (lots of receptions and such stuff). I want these so bad. And I love her dress. Only tiny bit flaw (which is a bit problematic since it is on her face): she should tone down the make-up.

      I think her makeup is just fine. Looks like this was a formal, evening event, which means more makeup is ok. Plus, with all those flashbulbs, she just can’t win. If she went with less makeup, she would look washed out.

    Pippa isn’t going to be a problem. I predict Pippa will marry MAJOR money, and possibly a title.

    Smokin’! I think that news flash just made my day.

    Damn. She is just redonk beautiful. Great feet–she must be pleased she got a chance to show them off. And that dress looks amazing on her–and steals a little of Pippa’s Maid of Honor thunder as well.

    I heard on the news this morning that there are rumors that Pippa is moving to NYC. That would be HILARIOUS. I can’t wait.

      The idea of it is so very Downton Abbey. Send the disgraced girl off to the States to recover her reputation. LOL.

    Those shoes are gorgeous. The dress reminds me a little bit of Princess Leia. I don’t love it.

      Val, how sad is it that now you’ve said it reminds you of Leia it makes me love it even more?? haha! I’m SUCH a geek!

        THIS IS WHY I LOVE THIS SITE. I was just about to post that she looks like Sexy Princess Leia, But With Much Better Hair, and BEHOLD! Someone else thinks so too!

    Ugh, sorry — we had a system glitch. SO ANNOYING. All is well.

    God even her feet are pretty.

    See, THIS is how you wear a dress with a slit, BLAKE LIVELY. A slit in a dress is not a curtain to be held open for the camera.

    (I’m not going to call out Angelina, because I am convinced she did that as a joke, like she tried on the dress at home, and showed some leg and made a snide remark about how the media always bitch that she doesn’t own her glamour and instead wears shapeless sacks everywhere, and Brad joked “You should pose like that ALL NIGHT, that would be hilarious,” and she said “You’re ON.”)

    This might be my favorite look of hers so far: elegant, sexy, and – my god – those shoes!

    I just love her. And I love that she doesn’t look like a princess, and I mean that in the best way possible. She is relatable and casual and seems to truly, truly enjoy herself.

    She looks amazing. Those shoes are incredible. I dig the sister wifey style with the slit and the hot shoes but am I the only one who thinks the dress is a smidge too big for her in the hip area- she looks to be swimming.

    She looks pretty as usual. I’m glad she wore those shoes to spice it up a little. She can look a little boring at times. Lovely, but boring.

    Wow, she is a feather-light twig. A very pretty twig, though.

    .. how does one manage to look dazzling and demure, simultaneously ?!

    Duchess does–
    delightful smile, all the while.

    As soon as I saw the glittery Jimmy Choos I know it was only a matter of hours before this would be posted here. YAY! Love the sparkly strappy sandal and best all– no hose! Free toes! She looks fab. The slit makes it sexy, while the long sleeves keep it elegant. My only complaint is that maybe this needed a belt or some sort of embellishment to break up the plainness, but she looks freaking gorgeous. The Duchess always hits a home run with her evening wear.

    I love her SO much and I can’t even explain why.
    Maybe I love her because I feel like, once she births the heir to the Only Way is Essex, she will start eating loads and get curvy and then get all Ashley Judd/J-Lo-Hew and tell everyone to SOD OFF while Black Angus Burger juices are dripping down her hands.

    Has anyone else noticed how she ALWAYS does that “tucking her hair behind her ear to show off her engagement ring” thing? Hell, guess I’d do the same if I had a great big sapphire on my ring finger!

    Yeah, I love the casual ring showing-off.

    1) I hate feet – even princess feet.
    2) For the love of all things royal, can someone PLEASE teach her how to put on eyeliner!!! She is too gorgeous for that makeup job to be tolerated a minute longer.

    Just a side note. When I lived in the UK posh gels like Catherine here would never wear pantyhose, they wore stockings with garter belts.
    Tights were for the commoners!
    Any Brits on here know if that’s still the case?

    no one else thinks the shoes are tacky / borderline real-housewife-of-wherever-esque?

    Also, here pinky toe looks trapped and inflamed. It hurts to look at it!

    Bahaha, I knew the second I saw that outfit that you were going to make that comment about open-toed shoes! Love the dress!

    Ordinarily I think that this woman can do no wrong, but I don’t love this dress. I think it’s too sister-wifey, and I think it’s a bit too big for her. And oh my GOD somebody needs to stage an eyeliner intervention. That ‘all around the eye’ look makes a woman’s eyes look smaller. It’s not good.

    I love this!! The feet have been freed! I’m sure this is a limited seasonal change only but there is hope that the tights will not make regular appearances until Autumn!

    Love this!! Thanks for the Met Ball interruption…

    In regards to Pippa, it seems that the Queens of England have to have a sister like that. Catherine will have Pippa, the current Queen had Princess Margaret, Queen Elizabeth the first had Mary, Queen of Scots… I’m sure there were others.

      Sorry to be pedantic, but Mary, Queen of Scots wasn’t Elizabeth I’s sister. She was a cousin. The Mary you might be thinking of was Elizabeth’s half sister, her father’s oldest child (by his first wife, Katherine of Aragon). That Mary wasn’t a hell-raiser in the Mary, Queen of Scots/Pippa model: she was a fanatical Catholic who earned herself the nickname ‘Bloody Mary’ while on the throne, because of her gruesome attempts to single-handedly reverse the Reformation by burning a lot of Protestants.

      I definitely agree that Pippa has the potential to be this generation’s Princess Margaret.

    DO SOMETHING WITH YOU HAIR!!!! This woman is drop dead gorgeous! But please *please* do something with the hair!!!!

    She’s really pretty and charming, no doubt… I adored the Choos until I saw they were covered in glitter… They’re still beautiful in shape, but I would have preferred silver… that’s it. A piece of neck jewellery, a more creative approach to hair and a lighter kohl job would have done the whole trick.

    i love that she isn’t wearing hose with open-toed shoes. she looks amazing. i love her. there is no more to say.

    except perhaps that her hair is also perfect, and i can’t understand how anyone could have a single problem with it beyond envy.

    she looks great–except her waistline scares me a bit …way too skinny
