Royal Family Attend Commonwealth Day Observance Service at Westminster Abbey
The BRF was out in full force this afternoon at Westminster Abbey to attend the Commonwealth Day Observance service. The Duchess of Cambridge was all smiles in front of the cameras with Prince Charles (see Daily Mail for photos).
For all those thinking that the Duchess of Cambridge wearing pink is a sign that Prince George can expect a little sister next month, remember that she wore the very same outfit at the Trooping the Colour ceremony back on June 15, 2013 – just about a month before the birth of Prince George.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge Visit Blenheim
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge paid tribute to veterans while visiting Blenheim on Thursday (16-hour time difference from the US east coast). They jointly lay a wreath at the town’s war memorial. The clock tower commemorates those from Marlborough Province who died in the First and Second World Wars.
Afterwards, the couple spoke with veterans as well as the many royal watchers, including many children dressed in crowns.
Duchess Wears Crown for First Time Since Wedding
For the first time since her wedding, the Duchess of Cambridge donned a tiara at tonight’s Diplomatic Reception at Buckingham Palace. Senior royals including the Queen and Prince Charles were on hand along with the Cambridges to greet representatives from 172 foreign missions currently accredited to the Court of St. James’s in London.
The Queen loaned the tiara to the Duchess for the state occasion; the Papyrus Tiara was once owned by the Queen Mother and most recently by the Queen’s sister, Princess Margaret.
Too bad no official photos were released from the event but rumors are that the Duchess is wearing one of her favorite brands, Alexander McQueen.

Vanity Fair’s International Best-Dressed List
The Duchess of Cambridge landed atop Vanity Fair’s 2013 International Best-Dressed List for the fourth year in a row, sharing honors with Scandal‘s Kerry Washington. “The Kate Effect” remains in full swing as proven by this honor and the fact that anything she wears continues to sell out in 24 hours (or less!). The Duchess’ top labels are Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, Issa, Jenny Packham, and Alice Temperley.
