Yesterday was International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camp, Auschwitz-Birkenau, by Soviet troops. There was a ceremony at Auschwitz attended by heads of state, dignitaries, and over 300 Auschwitz survivors. Additionally, there were a number of commemorative events held around the world.

Cambridge Survival Guide for Will and Kate’s new PR guy, Jason Knauf
In the comments on the last Duchess Kate post, a welcome post was suggested for Jason Knauf – Prince William and Kate’s new PR guy. In the wake of Prince Andrew’s latest disturbing PR/legal nightmare, I thought a little advice from us to Jason would be a great idea. So here’s to you, Jason. Welcome […]
Duchess Kate doubles her engagements in 2014, but is still the least active senior royal
The annual tabulation of the British Royal Family’s engagement numbers by Tim O’Donovan has been released… and I’m super confused.

Back to Black: The Duchess Kate Story
Duchess Kate was back in black for the GREAT Reception at NeueHouse with Prince William. She wore another Seraphine Maternity dress, the Vanessa. I mean, she looks nice, and it’s much better than her black lace dresses, but damn I am just so sick of Kate wearing black. Oh, and let’s not forget the $80,000 […]
