Most girls dreamt of finding their Prince Charming and getting married. While it seems that this only happens in a fairytale, Kate Middleton proved to everyone that you can actually marry a prince in real-life as well.
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s story is very captivating. He was a real-life prince, she was a commoner. Their paths crossed when they attended the same university, became friends, fell in love, and now they are married with three beautiful children.
But, just because Kate Middleton has a royal title now, doesn’t mean that she already forgot where she came from. In fact, the Duchess of Cambridge still posses the simplicity that most commoners have.
Although Kate Middleton looks like a real princess when she attends formal events in her stunning dresses, the Duchess of Cambridge looks just like anyone of us on some occasions. Despite her model-like height and physique, Prince William’s wife would usually choose a more casual and comfortable outfit.
“We're loving Kate Middleton's low key look in a classic Breton stripe and skinny jeans,” Yahoo Style UK wrote. “So glad to know I'm not the only one with an affinity for short pants. Ahem, Kate Middleton,” one fan posted.
Kate Middleton is also known for recycling her outfits, which is considered a fashion suicide in Hollywood. Although the Duchess of Cambridge is certainly not a part of Tinseltown, her popularity made her a celebrity and a fashion icon, and her choice of repeating her clothes is such a breath of fresh air.
People have always been so interested in Kate Middleton’s outfits that they would look for the brand to buy for themselves. While doing their research, fans realized that the Duchess of Cambridge wears affordable brands and not just those luxurious ones like expected.
“The Duchess dressed casually and never wore makeup,” Royal biographer Michael Thornton said. “She was always very friendly to the staff who were very proud of the fact that she shopped there. The people here are not royalist-minded and were ambivalent at best about their arrival, but she and William won Anglesey over with their warmth and low-key lifestyle — and trust me, the people of Anglesey are not easily swayed.”
Kate Middleton has successfully merged the world of royalty and commoner, making her an instant favorite of the public. Despite not having royal blood, people see her as a true princess.
