In the months since she almost stole the show at her sister Kate's Royal Wedding in April, Pippa Middleton has become one of the most photographed Brits around, and has made nary a fashion misstep along the way. Often snapped coming to and from work in London, Pippa sticks to structured, figure-friendly pieces that show off her enviable physique but could work for any body type. For work, she favors body-skimming mini-dresses and flats. At play, she often balances skinny jeans with loose, comfy shirts and blouses. And this girl loves a blazer to top of her ensembles.
Loving Pippa's classic, tailored style? For those of us on a commoner's budget, I've scoured the web to find fantastic Pippa-esque styles to fit every budget.
Begin your work day outfit with a body-skimming long-sleeve knit dress from H&M for $24.95...
...or with the Gap's polyester/wool blend sleeveless color-block mini for $69.95.
Slip into a pair of neutral flats, like Ciao Bella's gray suede Fairchild style, on sale for $39.50 at Piperlime {also available in black and purple}....
...or grab this light gray pair at Charlotte Russe, featuring jersey-knit fabric and a "mummy-wrapped" design on the toe ~ a steal at only $19.50!
Searching for one of Pippa's more casual-chic looks? Look no further than your local Old Navy store. Snag their "The Sweetheart" skinny jeans for $29.50. They come in three different washes and regular, petite, and tall lengths. Pair with ON's $29.94 women's camp shirt {available in plaids and solids} for a look that's weekend-fabulous.
One last Pippa-perfect fashion find ~ both Pippa and her sister Duchess Catherine, as well as stylish mom Carole, having been spotted out and about in nude LK Bennett heels {see picture below}. Nude heels go with everything and make legs look like they go on for miles by tricking the eye into seeing one long line in the same hue. {Middleton-approved nude pantyhose optional...although you might want to skip that if you're stateside}.
Grab Steve Madden's nearly-identical "Bevv" style platform pump, currently on sale for $69.95.
See, you don't need the Middleton family's millions {or the Royal Family's budget} to look like a pulled-together fashion plate ~ everyday. :)
Happy shopping, Beauty Queens!
xoxo
