Pippa Middleton (Kind of) Wears Her Big Sister’s Boots

We know the Middleton family is really into swapping clothes, but it’d been a while since we’d seen Kate, Pippa or mom Carole wear similar styles. That is, until late last week, when Pippa wore the classic black suede Aquatalia by Marvin K boots her big sis loves so much.

Pippa donned the fancy footwear on Friday while out promoting her new book, Celebrate. Just two weeks before, on Oct. 9 and 10, the Duchess of Cambridge had worn the same brand of boots while making personal appearances around the United Kingdom. Pippa favors the “Orchid Dry” style, while Kate typically wears the “Rhumba,” though both hit just below the knee and feature a not-too-high heel.

Though Pippa’s faves aren’t available in the U.S. (Brits can buy them at Russell & Bromley), Kate’s “Rhumbas” are online for $698, and you can find a limited number of Aquatalia by Marvin K shoes — including must-have fall booties and oxfords — on jildorshoes.comTell us: What kinds of boots are you wearing this season?

We hate to put a damper on the weekend by reminding you that tomorrow is Monday, but we’re only doing so because we have the perfect outfit for you to sport to kick off the week.

It’s time to give your pencil skirt and white button-down an upgrade. To do so, take a cue from Pippa Middleton and swap the basic blouse for something that packs more punch. A colored top (Middleton chose a pretty plum hue, which is perfect for fall) will make your outfit less stuffy, but still keep the overall vibe office-appropriate.

The Duchess of Cambridge‘s sister also put a twist on her work accessories: just check out that quilted laptop bag. And lucky for you, we found one that looks just like it for just $99. Tell us: What do you think of Middleton’s outfit?

Set a reminder in your iPhone and cancel any midday meetings you have on Thursday. Because the iconic Issa design that the Duchess of Cambridge wore in November 2010 when she and Prince William announced they’d be getting hitched will be available to purchase in red from TheOutnet.com starting Thursday at 12 p.m.

The dress sold out almost instantly after Kate wore it. And considering it will have a majorly reduced price tag as of tomorrow ($194.25, down from $555!), we have a feeling it’s going to move fast. We’re talking matter-of-minutes fast.

(Oh, and if the red version of the dress looks familiar, it’s because Kate’s sister Pippa selected it for a wedding this past May.)

So, bookmark the page, have your credit card ready and start practicing the line, “Oh this? Yeah, the Duchess and I have the same taste.” Tell us: Do you love the dress as much as we do? Do you plan to buy it tomorrow?

We’ve obviously been looking closely at Pippa Middleton‘s cool winter outfits, but we’ve noticed something in particular lately: her love for her sleek black handbag. The royal sis has been spotted carrying her Aruna Seth “Romina” bag all over London this winter.

Middleton first paired the bag with a striped skirt, blazer and boots on Jan. 9, later toting it with another dress/boots/blazer outfit in London’s posh Chelsea neighborhood. And while staying casual recently in red slacks, a plaid top and a jacket, she kept the bag by her side for yet another errand run.

She topped several best-dressed lists in 2011, and the Duchess of Cambridge earned yet another style honor this week: she was named the top beauty icon of the year in a 3,000-woman poll.

Interestingly, Kate’s younger sister Pippa came in second in the vote, run by U.K. drugstore Superdrug; both girls were hailed for their fresh makeup and glossy hair. U.K. X Factor judge Cheryl Cole was third on the list.

Though the poll ran in England, many American celebs made the top 20, too, including Beyoncé (seventh place), Katy Perry (ninth), Lady Gaga (12th) and Angelina Jolie (18th). Emma Watson and Adele were among the other British-bred honorees. (See the complete list at the Daily Mail.)

“Everyone in the list has a distinct look, whether it’s natural beauty, full octane glamour or a love of beauty trend-hopping,” Superdrug director of beauty Sara Wolverson told the Daily Mail, adding that four of the top five vote-getters happened to be brunettes.

And you thought New York Fashion Week was a big deal! London Fashion Week is in full swing, and so far, the shows have impressed, offering star-studded front rows, technological advances and even a near-royal visit. Check out some of the highlights from the week’s biggest shows.

Burberry Prorsum

Promising a starry front row at London Fashion Week, the Burberry Prorsum show on Monday (above, left) did not disappoint. Sienna Miller, Kanye West and a current face of the brand, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, sat alongside Rachel Zoe, Gemma Arterton, tennis star Andy Murray, singer Paul Weller and photographer Mario Testino at Christopher Bailey’s spring/summer 2012 show in Kensington Gardens. Tribal-inspired print dresses were paired with cropped trenches and raffia caps in a collection that put a handcrafted artisan twist on ladylike chic.

“Oh my God, that was insanity!” gushed Zoe to PEOPLE as she headed backstage. “[Bailey is] amazing. I mean, who else makes a coat like that?” she added, referring to the “reinvention” of the classic Burberry trench.
