Kate in a J.Crew Sweater - Items of the same Stripe

For the new mental health campaign 'Heads Together', Kate, Harry, and William showed their support this Sunday morning. For more information about the charity and the involvement of the Duchess, see HRHDuchessKate. 

Kate wore a gorgeous striped sweater from J.Crew. Stripes are associated with nautical themes, and are classic, and easy to combine. These days, stripes are offered in a variety of colours too. Get inspired by checking out the items below:

Kate in Pointillist LK Bennett to meet the Obamas

Yester, William, Kate, and Harry hosted the Obamas for dinner at Kensington Palace.

A close up from the fabric reveals bright specs of red, which reminds me of the French painting technique known as Pointillism, a technique where little spots of different colours are used as 'building blocks' to create an image:

No Replikates today, because I think the print is no unique that no copy would do it any justice. The Duchess looked stunning, and I am looking forward to see her wearing this beautiful dress again.

Kate Middleton Style - Replikate the LK Bennett Cayla Dress


Kate turned away from previously-worn neutrals at her latest Wimbledon attendance to shine in a cardinal red LK Bennett dress, the Cayla style. I adore the colour and the simple and clean cut of the dress. This post is dedicated to some fantastic Replikates of this frock. Enjoy!

Business wear - LK Bennett Graphic Floral Shift Dress


It is a lot of fun to suddenly find an unusual combination of items that make a great outfit together.
For instance, the H&M belt I bought this weekend adds a warm touch to the cool graphic floral print of this gorgeous LK Bennett shift dress. Combine it with a trench, blazer, heels in a neutral colour, your favorite work bag and the monday morning rush hour is looking a lot brighter all of a sudden.
The LK Bennett shift is available also in a more romantic colour combination in blues and pinks.

Summer chic - transform the rainy streets into your boulevard

I am longing to warm summer evenings as it has been raining non stop around Utrecht these days. These items in particular make me dream of a summer in Monaco like Grace Kelly. Enjoy!

1. Three words to describe cat eye sunglasses: timeless, classic, and sexy.

2. A favorite of Kate Middleton, the LK Bennett raffia clutch is a true statement piece due to its unusal combination of material and shape.

3. Minimalist, ethnic, and another favorite of the Duchess. These earrings work for her public engagements out and about, but will also be a welcome addition to any summer wardrobe.

Happy weekend everybody!

Professional key items that work always, anywhere, anytime


There are certain pieces you can never go wrong with, whatever the occassion. These three pieces will get you anywhere and instantly make you look sophisticated and ready for the job.

1. A blazer in a neutral colour
is a great investment because of its versatility. In order to achieve that mature and stylish look, go for a cut that is sharp without any frills that distract from the great fit it has.

2. A great bag can instantly lift any outfit and exude a sense of professional independence. A bag basically says 'I am on my way to achieve my goals'. A good work bag is sturdy and won't show any signs of damage if maintained properly and should be large enough for documents and a laptop. If you tend to wear a lot of colour, choose a bag in a neutral colour. If you tend to shy away from colour in your outfit, go instead for a bag that has a colour other than your work wear, such as burgundy or emerald green.

3. A pencil skirt is your best friend in times of lots and lots of job interviews. They look great, feminine and smart on any body type and are easy to iron and maintain.

If you are not comfortable in skirts, consider a pair of trousers instead. The secret to pulling off a pair of trousers are the pockets as they can hugely influence and alter the shape of your butt.
