RepliKating Kate's Polo Outfits and More!

Hello! In this post I will talk about how I recreated the Duchess' look, and what the outcome looks like!    

In June of this year, the Duchess of Cambridge showed up wearing a blue and white striped shirt with jeans and her loved Sebago flats. If it may look familiar, that is because the previous year she wore the same outfit at the 2014 polo match - replacing the blue stripes for white! Not to mention she has been many times wearing the stripes, jeans, sebago flats combo look - including during the Royal Canada 2011 Tour, and most recently, the America's World Cup series engagement. 

Below, I have recreated both the 2014 & 2015 Polo Match look. The Duchess was also spotted grocery shopping wearing this look only changing her hairstyle and black jeans in place of blue, which I also recreated!

 
This is a very easy look to recreate. I own the same shoes the Duchess has - the Sebago flats, which go for about 95$ USD. So I decided to have some fun with it! Even without owning the Sebago's, it is a very common
boat shoe look, so any boat shoe will work in its place. I bought the striped top from H&M - about 25$ USD, and my jeans are from Forever 21 - about 20$ USD. Again, these are very common pieces you can find anywhere. Wear your hair loose and pair it with some square styled sunglasses (I believe Kate's sunnies are Ray Bans) and you've got the look! 

Below are photos of how I recreated the Duchesses looks she so loves to do time and time again! 
 

 

 

I hope you guys liked my RepliKates! It was so fun. More outfits will be posted soon!

The Duchess earns her Advanced Scuba Diving certificate!

Kensington Palace has confirmed that the Duchess has completed her advanced scuba diving course! Kate has always been very athletic even back in her school days. She is known to frequently sail, ski, play tennis, hockey, etc. 

She has completed the Professional Association of Diving Instructors, aka the PADI, Advanced Open Water Diver qualification, and is able to dive up to a depth of 98 feet. 

Pretty impressive!

This also means she is able to join Prince William (who is also a diver) on underwater trips. 

One of their favorite known vacation spots is the island of Mustique, where it is rumored Kate completed her course, and is also where William has gone on deep dives in.

William is also the president of the British Sub-Aqua club. 

So no doubt this certificate will go into good use!

 In order to pass the course, Catherine would of most likely had to pass a deep dive and underwater navigation, including how to handle equipment and emergencies.

I'm back! Here are some photos of Princess Charlotte

I am back blogging after a too long hiatus, while I was establishing my TheDuchessCatherine instagram. 
The key thing I missed blogging was of course, the birth of HRH Princess Charlotte.  
Be sure to follow my instagram @TheDuchessCatherine for more. :)


Here is a little celebrating post of her so I can get back into the groove of this. 
Enjoy Her Royal Highness in all her baby cuteness.
