Shop the Look: Kate Middleton Lace Dress

When Kate Middleton visited Ottawa in the summer, she wore this navy lace dress by Erdem (a British fashion designer) with nude clutch and pumps. The lace overlay dress (or top or skirt) is going to continue to be a hot look as we head into the cooler temperatures. It is sexy but refined and I definitely think Kate wears it well.

I do not normally post “shop the look” posts because I have found most of the ones out there look nothing like the original look. BUT, if you are plus sized and loved Kate’s look, I have good news for you. ASOS Curve almost has an identical look with their Exclusive Midi Dress In Lace in sizes 20 to 26 for £45. The pattern is somewhat different but the rest is definitely the closest I’ve seen yet. Besides, you don’t want to exact look so much as the style and intention behind it.

Plus Size Lace Midi Dress from ASOS Curve with neutral shoes and clutch from Lane Bryant

The neutral pumps and clutch are from Lane Bryant (easy to find neutral pumps, not so easy to find clutch). The Patent Platform Pump which come in wide width are $60 and the Check Clutch Mini Bag On A String by Buxton is $38.

Do you like the Kate Middleton Lace Dress with the neutral accessories? How would you accessorize it to make it your own?

    Welcome to Prom Dress Week. I was researching prom dresses last week for somewhere else and I thought it would be a perfect addition to the blog.

    70s Inspired Pleats

    One of the hottest trends this season is mini pleats. It’s part of that whole retro kick that we seem to be heading into whether we want to or not. I actually like this trend, from a non-hog-wild perspective anyway. One of two pieces are more than enough to satisfy the desire. When I started…

  1. I too love this lace overlay look. It’s refreshing and classy and although Kate’s dress is a pretty conservative cut, the lace overlay makes it “step out”. Beautiful.

  2. Is anything truly unique anymore? Pretty much everything was inspired by a look or design or a cut that was seen somewhere. I think I like the ASOS design better, you can see more of the underlay.

  3. I love her style. She always looks put together but not too over the top. I wish the media wouldn’t care so much if she wears something twice. Isn’t that a smart thing to do?

  4. I juts Love those shoes that Kate is rockin’, but where is harry’s ring it is to early for that!! ;0)

  5. Are you getting this dress or have you gotten it? I ordered it but it hasn’t shipped yet. I was wondering if you were going to post a picture of yourself in it or not. I love the look
