Pippa Middleton Royal Maid of Honor Dress

Catherine, The Duchess of Cambridge wasn't the only one stealing the crowd's attention, as her sister and Maid of Honor Pippa Middleton also managed to

grab the spotlight with her amazing bridesmaid dress. Find out what Pippa Middleton wore to her sister's Royal wedding!

Apparently Kate Middleton wasn't the only one admired at the Royal Wedding, as her sister Pippa Middleton was quite praised for her look. With a striking resemblance to her sibling Catherine, Pippa managed to steal the show arriving as the Royal Maid of Honor to Westminster Abbey in a gorgeous white dress created by the same designer who created Kate Middleton's wedding gown, Sarah Burton.

Pippa Middleton never managed to overshadow her sister, but on the day of the Royal Wedding she came pretty close. Everyone was surprised by her amazing figure put into value with a gorgeous floor length dress that features a cowl-neck and white cap sleeves.

The silky white dress was created out of heavy satin crepe that draped along her gorgeous fit body, making the best out of her curves without adding a touch of indecency to her look. The colour, although quite unusual for a bridesmaid, created a gorgeous contrast with her tan skin.

The back of the dress was kept simple but balanced with satin covered buttons which followed her spine beautifully.

Pippa kept her hair natural, styled in a lovely half up/half down hairstyle to balance her simplistic fairytale dress, but gave it that festive allure by clipping some lily-of-the-valley flowers on the crown of the head.

As far as accessories went, Pippa opted for a simple ring and a pair of floral and teardrop dangling diamond earrings, which she has received from her parents as a birthday present, earrings designed by Robinson Pelham.

Pippa received only compliments for her look, although most women stated they would wear Pippa's dress as a wedding dress for a simple wedding by the ocean.

Kate Middleton Wedding Dress Designer is Sarah Burton

It's no longer a mystery, Kate Middleton's wedding dress designer is Sarah Burton, head designer for Alexander McQueen. Discover the amazing craftsmanship behind Catherine

Middleton's marvelous wedding gown and her exquisite veil and find out what jewelry she wore for her royal wedding to Prince William.

Ever since the royal engagement was announced, the world has been waiting impatiently to see Kate Middleton's wedding dress. Today the royal bride finally walked down the aisle at Westminster Abbey wearing a stunning lace wedding gown, designed by no other than Sarah Burton of the Alexander McQueen fashion house.

Dress

Kate Middleton herself worked closely with the designer to make sure she'll get the perfect gown for the royal wedding. The ivory satin bridal gown featured a lace applique bodice with a restrained, high lace collar, long lace sleeves and an 8 foot long train. The gown's bodice was narrowed down the waist and padded at the hips inspired by Victorian corsetry.

Veil

Kate's silk tulle veil was embroidered with rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock lace flowers. The intricate lace was hand-crafted at London's Royal School of Needlework based at Hampton Court Palace.

Shoes

Kate Middleton's shoes were also designed by the McQueen fashion house, made of ivory satin with hand-embroidered lace details to complement her wedding gown perfectly.

Tiara

The diamond tiara topped Kate Middleton's wedding hairstyle, which she wore in her trademark loose waves pulled back into a half updo. The tiara was lent to her by the Queen, which was given to her by Cartier in 1938 for her 18th birthday when she was still a princess.

Earrings

The royal bride accessorized with pear-shaped diamond earrings designed by fine jeweler Robinson Pelham and were inspired by the Middleton's new coat of arms, which was given to the family earlier this month.

Bouquet

Kate Middleton’s wedding bouquet was made up of myrtle, lily of the valley, sweet William and hyacinth, designed by Shane Connolly. The flowers from her bridal bouquet all have a special meaning: the myrtle is the emblem of love and marriage, the lily of the valley is the return of happiness, sweet William stands for gallantry, while the hyacinth symbolizes constancy of love.

Designer feedback

Top fashion designers all over the world expressed their excitement about Kate Middleton's wedding gown. Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld said: "She is very elegant. The dress is classic and goes very well in the Westminster decor. It almost reminds me of (Queen) Elizabeth’s wedding, the royal weddings in the Fifties. The proportion of the train is good. The lace is very pretty. I like the veil a lot."

French couturier Christian Lacroix cited the likeness of the royal wedding gown to 1956 Grace Kelly and 1947 Queen Elizabeth dresses, while Donatella Versace simply said: "Kate's dress was beautiful. She looked very regal."

Royal Wedding Guests Outfits and Fashion

Apparently not only the Royal family dazzled at the big event today, but most of the guests expected by the Royal house, so check out the Royal wedding guests

fashion outfits and pick your favorites!

With the Royal Wedding continuing behind closed doors, in a private reception, the attention has been diverted towards the guests who arrived to celebrate this important event. Kate Middleton's wedding gown and Prince William's wedding attire have been admired by millions of people across the world and now it's time for the rest of the crowd.

The Royal Wedding requires a certain attire and since not everyone has the opportunity to participate at such a high-class event, the guests have brought out the best from their wardrobe. The Royal Wedding guests arriving at the Westminster Abbey dazzled with their amazing designer dresses, fancy hats and flawless style, so check out some of the celebrities who have managed to stand out of the crowd!

Among the favorite appearances at the Royal bash were Pippa Middleton, Kate Middleton's sister and chief maid of honour, who wore an amazing floor-length white dress. It seems that good taste runs in the family as with such a dress Pippa captured a generous amount of attention and positive critiques.

Pippa's silk white dress glided around her slender figure and showed off her feminine forms in a very elegant manner. The font of the dress revealed a lovely subtle draping cleavage while the back was kept simple, with just a few silk covered buttons following the spine-line. The dress was also designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, but in a much simpler manner, so it didn't overshadow the bride.

Another great pair who made a stunning impression at the Royal Wedding at Westminster Abbey was David and Victoria Beckham. The British couple opted for a classic timeless style, Victoria selecting a gorgeous baggy navy boat neck tunic dress from her latest fashion collection, AW 2011. To complete her stunning look, pregnant Victoria rocked a gorgeous pair of custom, super-high Christian Louboutin shoes and a lovely Phillip Treacy hat to spice-up her simple sleek ponytail hairstyle.

Princess Beatrice always manages to attract attention and she enchanted the crowd with a lovely Valentino couture, blush colored coat dress. The dress featured a great lattice collar detail that gave a stylish edge to the outfit. A stylish fascinator is indeed a must at exquisite events and this time Princess Beatrice complemented her outfit with a bold Phillip Treacy bow-style headpice.

Princess Victoria of Sweden looked amazing in a lovely, long sleeved, mid-length peach colored dress. The dress signed Ellie Saab complemented her figure, skin tone and accessorized with suede platform shoes from the designer's SS2011 collection.

Another great and edgy appearance was made by Tara Palmer Tomkinson, who strolled into Abbey looking as elegant as ever in a electric blue Kingfisher cocktail dress paired with a gorgeous pair of matching blue peep toe high heel pumps. To complete her look, Tara opted for a matching blue hat and clutch.

On the other hand, Kate Middleton's mother, Carole, opted for a classy light blue Catherine Walker dress, paired with a large brimmed hat by Jane Corbett and a pair of suede neutral/grey heels. The look was flawless and fit for a Royal mom. 

Camilla Parker Bowles, Duchess of Cornwall and Prince William's step mom, opted for a dress by the same designer she chose for her wedding outfit in 2005, when she married Prince Charles. Anna Valentine created a gorgeous two tone champagne and blue coat featuring hand embroidered details around the waistline, coat paired with a lovely matching champagne dress. She completed her look with a gorgeous Phillip Treacy hat and a pair of neutral Jimmy Choo heels.

The Queen looked bright and joyful at the ceremony wearing an Angela Kelly signature single crepe wool primrose dress featuring hand sewn beading around the neck area and a matching double crepe wool tailored primrose coat. The same designer created a matching crepe hat adorned with two handmade silk roses and matching apricot colored leaves.

Kate Middleton Second Wedding Dress Pictures

Kate Middleton's second wedding dress pictures have brought much excitement to the royal wedding watchers! Catherine Middleton dazzled at her Royal

wedding as she opted for a second dress which was as beautiful as her bridal gown. Find out all the details next!

Apparently it's not uncommon for royals to have an extra wedding dress standing by in case anything is revealed before their big day, and Kate Middleton, now Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, made no exception.

It's been rumored that the royal bride didn't have one, but two extra wedding dresses designed just so she could be sure nothing ruins her big day. And since nothing got out, Catherine appeared in her first choice, the wedding dress designed by British designer Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. Because carrying that 8 foot train all day and night isn't exactly easy, Kate decided to wear a second wedding dress at the party, and she looked stunning.

Kate Middleton shined and dazzled the guests at the wedding reception with another McQueen creation, a simplistic strapless white satin gown featuring a subtle and simple cleavage and a gorgeous diamante detailing around the waist. To give her gown a little bit of a modern touch and emphasize the small details, Kate opted for a simple white angora shrug that kept her warm.

It's not uncommon for brides and grooms to have a quick change into something more comfortable and so no one was surprised of the couple's choice as Prince William also ditched his military uniform over a black tuxedo.

Kate also ditched her glam and glitzy tiara that was lent to her by the Queen for this particular day and allowed her luscious wavy locks to glide gently and naturally around her delicate facial features. Naturalness was best underlined by Catherine and she has proven herself to be fit for a Prince.

Congratulations!

Kate Hudson Covers InStyle 2011

Kate Hudson is the new cover girl of 'InStyle' magazine, the May 2011 issue. In the interview, the 32-year-old actress opens up and speaks about different aspects in her life such as her new man,

Matthew Bellamy, her new baby and new body. Check out these snippets from the cover story.

Kate Hudson is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful actresses in the business. And by this we mean natural beauty that doesn't require special effects in order to create that flawless, rather surreal aspect we are used to see. Her latest appearance on the cover of 'InStyle' magazine totally sustains this idea. Sporting a lacy, white summer dress, with gorgeous blonde hairstyle and her already famous serene, radiant smile, Kate Hudson strikes a graceful pose for the magazine's May issue.

Inside the magazine, the actress reveals the best beauty tip her mom gave her. "You know how you tell a friend she looks amazing and you ask her what she's doing differently-and it turns out nothing except she met a new guy? Well, the best beauty advice my mom gave me was that you have to find happiness," Kate says.

The 32-year-old actress seems to have a lot going on in her life right now. She's expecting her second child this summer, her new movie 'Something Borrowed' opens May 6th, and she has found true love. After divorcing from Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson, Kate is now dating Muse rocker Matthew Bellamy whom she met at Coachella.

"[I was] watching Radiohead’s Thom Yorke with a guy I knew from high school, who introduced me to Matthew. We realized we had met a few years earlier, in Australia. Then I got distracted and said, 'I’ve got to find my friends; I don’t know where they went.' He just looked at me and said, 'Come on, I’ll take care of you.' That’s when I went, 'Wait a minute, who are you?'" Kate told 'InStyle'. 

Speaking about Matthew, the actress says that, "Matthew was polite and immediately protective, which for somebody like me who’s all over the place – one minute I’m over here and the next I’m over there – is important…. He is just an amazing person." She also added that, "In the beginning I felt like, OK, this is going to be heavy. Am I prepared for this? Because it had been a while, and I wasn't looking for that. But I just couldn't stay away. I wanted to talk to him and be with him all the time. On our first dates, we would take long walks and talk the entire day."

Hudson, who has a seven-year-old son Ryder with ex-husband Chris Robinson, is expecting a child this summer with Matthew. "Well, it wasn't like we didn't know what we were doing. There were no ovulation kits involved. We were tempting fate, and it worked," Kate says. "Everybody in my family wants a girl, since my whole family is made up of boys. Of course there will be no disappointment; we just want the baby to be healthy. I didn’t find out with Ryder, either, and I loved that. It’s the last real surprise left on the planet," she told the magazine.

On being pregnant and her new body, Kate admits that, "I hate it. I'm usually an A cup and I'm getting close to a D cup. Big breasts are fun for certain things and really not fun for other things. Plus, I love fashion, and having big breasts is not ideal for certain looks. They're way more fun when you're not in your clothes. Then, they're a blast!"

Still, when it comes to marriage, Kate confesses that this is not a thing she would take into account. "I wouldn't count it out. My own parents aren't married, and anybody who has seen how we love, open our arms, and accept people with all of their faults knows I come from a great, happy home. A wedding is a beautiful thing - and I love the idea of two people celebrating their love and bringing their families together - but Matthew and I kind of skipped that part and went right to the good stuff!"

Lauren Conrad Covers Allure 2011

Lauren Conrad is the May 2011 cover girl for 'Allure', celebrating the magazine's first iPad issue. Former reality-star turned fashion designer and NY Times best-selling author, looking fabulous as

ever, sits down for a special interview in which she talks about the way she sees herself, but also about body issues and plastic surgeries. You can also take a peek at some behind-the-scenes photos.

Lauren Conrad is definitely the type of girl that doesn't need different tricks in order to look great. And her latest cover for 'Allure' magazine May 2011 is the perfect example in this sense. The former reality-star hottie flaunts her signature hairstyle, a light brown waves with honey highlights, looking effortlessly sexy and relaxed. 'Allure' shares some behind-the-scenes photos with Lauren posing gracefully and naturally as she always does.

Even though Lauren became famous for her impeccable style, inside the magazine, the 25-year-old beauty says she doesn't see herself as being a sexy girl. "I'm not a sexy person. I'm OK with it," she told 'Allure'. "I've never been the sexy girl. Whenever I've had a boyfriend, he's always been like, 'Oh, you're cute.'"

Besides, the reality-show babe also says that fans of 'The Hills' who had the opportunity to meet her told her that she is "different" than they thought she would be and looks "better" and "younger" in person. "I'm still deciding if that's a nice thing to say. Is that like, 'You don't look great on TV?'" 

In 2004, Lauren was cast as the girl next door in MTV's "Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County." Speaking about that period, she admits that, "I was 17 when I signed on [to Laguna Beach], and that's a vulnerable age anyway. I was still figuring out who I was. To be on television and told a million things that are wrong with you was hard, but I very quickly decided that I just had to be me. I watched people change everything about themselves, and they still weren't happy."

Then, "The Hills" came, a reality series that managed to become a real phenomenon. On being called 'Reality Show Talent', Lauren told 'Allure' that, "They called me that, and I’m like, 'What’s my talent?'".

Lauren Conrad managed to quickly move from reality-show star to successful fashion designer and best-selling author. And being constantly in the spotlight is not the easiest thing as you sometimes might feel the pressure. "It wasn’t 'Lauren Debuts Her Line'; it was 'Lauren Debuts a Fuller Figure,' and I was like, 'Oh, no!’ because I’d put on a few pounds…. If I’m shopping and I see paparazzi, my bag goes directly to my thighs."

Still, Lauren reveals she never wanted to be very thin, nor felt the need of doing plastic surgeries just like her former costar and roommate Heidi Montag. "I saw 'People' magazine just like everybody else," Conrad said. "I don't think this is a happy story at all. There's just no right answer there," she says.

Now, Lauren seems to have totally put behind 'The Hills' and heading towards a blooming career in the fashion world. She currently designs clothes for Kohl's and for her new line, Paper Crown. Besides, she wants to keep her relationship with actor Kyle Howard far from the public eye.

usual, the singer does a really great job, leaving unquestionable the decision TOUS made to choose her as their spokesmodel.

Jennifer Lopez is known for her smoking-hot appearances, the singer and actress managing to always flaunt a flawless look regardless the event she needs to attend. Well, in this case, there's no wonder that famous brands are choosing the 41-old-year beauty to represent them and show off her seductive figure in their ad campaigns.

We are used with Jennifer looking glamorous all the time, yet in the latest spring/summer 2011 campaign for Barcelona-based jewelry company TOUS, the American Idol judge brings her impeccable face, intensifying to the maximum the glam effect.

In an oriental-inspired ad campaign, photographed by Ellen Von Unwerth, J.Lo wears sexy, feminine outfits and unique jewelry from the latest TOUS collection such as earrings, bracelets, necklaces and rings. Watching one of the photos, in which Jennifer pretends to eat an earring off a set of chopsticks, we can say that diamonds and jewelry are not just a girl's best friend, but they can also be an extremely delicious treat.

Last Month, gorgeous Jennifer Lopez was chosen as the new face of TOUS jewelry spring/summer 2011 ad campaign. Salvador Tous, Honorific President of TOUS said that, "Jennifer is not just an amazingly beautiful woman, but also a talented actress, musician and dancer sharing with us strong family values as we are a family-owned business. We are confident that Jennifer Lopez will be a great spokesperson as she is genuine and endlessly charismatic; a great illustration of our brand."

Jennifer is replacing beautiful Kylie Minogue who has previously modelled for the Spanish label. Coming from a family tradition, dating back to 1920, TOUS managed to become famous worldwide due to their one-of-a-kind creations. In 1965, Salvador and Rosa Tous inherited the business and took their work beyond the Spanish borders. Consequently, the couple was joined by their four daughters who came up with a different view and therefore diversifying the range of products. Besides jewelry, the brand offers a wide range of accessories like watches, handbags, perfumes, textiles, vision and a collection for the home.
