Victoria Beckham is a great designer. But she
seems to be really confident about her skills as well, because she decided to
attend the royal wedding ceremony in one of her own creations, a midnight blue
dress from her Fall/ Winter 2011/ 2012 collection. She finished her look with
a super-high Louboutin shoes and a stylish hat made by Philip Treacy. I love
the look but probably it would be wiser to opt for a bit lighter color.
Blush tones,
colour-blocking and navy blue emerged as the key trends of the stylish guests
at the royal wedding.
BLUSH TONES
Pretty blush tones proved to be one of the most
popular and versatile choices for guests attending the royal wedding. The
supremely stylish Letizia, Princess of Asturias (L), chose to wear Felipe
Varela, and made it her colour for the day, as did Princess Beatrice, who chose
Valentino haute couture and a bespoke, fun hat by Philip Treacy...

of Wessex wearing a Bruce Oldfield outfit and a hat by Jane Taylor. Princess
Maxima also opted for blush tones, ranging for peachy pinks to oyster hues.
BLUSH SHOES
...Blush-toned
shoes also proved the staple for the day. Clockwise from top left: Princess
Maxima; Princess Ameerah; Letizia, Princess of Asturias; Princess Beatrice;
Justine Thornton; Samantha Cameron (who braved an open-toe sandal version); the
Duchess of Kent; Carole Middleton; Sophie, Countess of Wessex and Princess Anne
all opted for the spring-appropriate footwear.
FABULOUS HATS
Fabulous hats, clockwise from top left: Princess
Beatrice in a playful creation by Philip Treacy; Miriam Gonzalez Durantez in a

NAVY BLUE
