A critical blog about Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, and the rest of the British royal family
Kate Middleton and Prince William, along with Prince Harry, joined The Queen, Prince Philip, and other members of the royal family yesterday, March 9, for a Service of Dedication at Horse Guards Parade to honor the men and women who served during the Gulf War and conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Queen then unveiled the memorial while the rest of the family attended a reception.

After stopping by the US Embassy to sign the book of condolence, Prince William and Kate Middleton – known as Baron and Baroness Carrickfergus when in Ireland – traveled to Belfast, Northern Ireland yesterday, June 14, to attend the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland’s annual Garden party at Hillsborough Castle.
There isn’t much to talk about with Order of the Garter except history and who attended – especially this year since the parade got rained out – so I’m going in with fashion first since I was so darn excited when I saw photos from this event. I put it right there in the title: Kate Middleton stunned in red at the Order of the Garter ceremony yesterday, June 13.
Prince William, former RAF S&R pilot, and Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, made the trek (by helicopter, of course) back to Anglesey, Wales yesterday for the RAF Force Disbandment Parade marking the end of RAF opperations.
Happy Sunday (or Monday – sup New Zealand)! Kate finally made an official appearance that wasn’t a church/memorial service the Queen dragged her to – yay!? It’s been a week shy of two months since Kate worked last, on December 16, and for her first official appearance of 2016 she can already check off one of her patronages as visited – also yay!? The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, paid a visit to the RAF Air Cadets in her new, official role as Honorary Air Commandant today, February 7. Kate marked the 75th anniversary year if the Air Cadets with a church service at St. Clement Danes and a reception at the Royal Courts of Justice.
The polls have closed and the votes are in! Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2015 review polls of Kate Middleton‘s dresses, coats, gowns, separates, and hats. There were some predictable outcomes in certain categories, especially for least favorite; and there were some surprises I was not predicting in some of the categories, though I’m happy to see some of my favorites near the top in some of them.
This is part 2 of our polls on Kate Middleton‘s 2015 fashion: coats, gowns, and hats (go here for part 1). Several of you mentioned the dresses/separates not having anything that stood out, but I think this group has higher highs and lower lows than the dresses/separates categories. Both my favorite looks and least favorite looks of the year come from these categories. As with yesterday’s, the categories are organized by color with two polls at the bottom of each category.
