Updated: Wedding Bells Were Ringing...

              Everyone loves a wedding, and I am no exception. But we all have probably experienced the stress of trying to figure out what to wear to such an event. 9 times out of 10 now I peruse previous outfits worn by the Duchess of Cambridge in previous years and I always get inspiration.  There is no exception to this rule with the ensemble that she wore to a friend's wedding in Switzerland this past week.

The best part is- we can RepliKate the hat!!!!  There is a wonderful Etsy.com seller that has made copies of numerous Catherine hats and the brown Lock & Co hat is no exception.


Girlfabulosity

The "Kate's St. Patrick's Day Hat" can be purchased from the GirlFabulosity Etsy.com storefront for $124.00.

Next are the Kiki McDonough hoops that are adorned with Catherine's Annoushka pearl drops.


GoldenButterflyBeads

With some small pliers and 30 seconds, you can transform the above hoops and the below pearl drops into the drop earrings you desire.

The "Cubic Zirconia Pave Leverback Earring w/ Ring Gold Vermeil" are 9mm huggie hoops and can be purchased for $11.00 from the GoldenButterlyBeads Etsy.com store front.

TerraFinds

The "Fresh Water Pearl Drop Pearl Dangles" measure 12mm by 9mm and can be purchased from the TerraFinds Etsy.com storefront for $13.50.

UPDATE: Here are what the earrings look like now that they are assembled:

GibbieGirlDesigns


I think my personal favorite part was the fur muff that she wore around her neck.  It was so lush and rich next to her glowing face.


Furs New York

This "Brown Fox Neck Warmer/Collar" can be purchased for $106.00 from Fursnewyork.com.

The Duchess bundled up in a single placket cream coat.  I found several VERY expensive RepliKates but chose the following coat as i carried the theme but in an affordable price point.

Overstock


This Via Spiga "Women's Italian Cashmere-wool Blend Coat" can be purchased from Overstock.com for $124.99.

To keep her hands warm, Catherine carried a pair of fur and leather gloves.

FurSource.com

These "Mink Fur Trim Leather Gloves" are cashmere lined and can be purchased from Fursource.com for $99.95.

I am super excited about these RepliKate bags that a fellow WKW-er introduced us to.  You can order this bag in 16 different colors of suede.  For this outfit the chocolate would be perfect.

Arvisha's

The "Celesta Clutch" can be purchased from Arvishas Etsy.com storefront for $87.00.

The dress on this one really is the hardest.  The first problem being that I personally think the dress is a bit dowdy and looks good on Kate because she is a stunner.  On me it would look like a leopard print pillow.  So instead of an exact RepliKate I went with inspired by.

Kohl's

This Simply Vera Vera Wang "Watercolor Chiffon Dress" has the chiffon flow and the neutral brown tones that make the real-thing such a versatile dress.  The dress can be purchased for $51.00 from Kohls.com.

Last but not least are the RepliKates for the Duchess' GORGEOUS Emmy pumps in brown suede.  These were the second hardest to find.  I may still be on the look out for another pair, but until then, I think these are great.


6pm.com

The "Daina" pumps in Chocolate Suede from Pour La Victoire can be purchased for $74.99 from 6pm.com.

What did you think of her winter-time wedding look?

Till next time- happy shopping!
