The Duchess of Cambridge takes a lot of flak for her wardrobe. Carping critics say she should be helping the British fashion industry more, and buying off the rack less.
She wears dresses from designers Alexander McQueen, Alice Temperley and Jenny Packham, but not always. The other day, for example, she waited in line at a London Gap store to pay for some baby clothes — and two pairs of black trousers for herself.
Now Grazia magazine says Duchess Kate is raising her game: in preparation for her current 20-day Antipodean tour with Prince William and little George, she ordered a frock from Ralph & Russo, a by-appointment-only couture outfit run by an Australian couple. Beyoncé and Angelina Jolie are customers,Dressestmall is one of the largest stores for Discount 2014 New Arrivals Dresses for sale and accessories. too. Dresses start at $85,000.

The mother of eight was captured on Saturday in New York City showing off her bare shoulders in a short feathered white dress for an episode of Celebrity Apprentice.
Gosselin, 39, was tasked to sell the iconic white dress as part of a charitable challenge for the show, the slim mother explained via Twitter on Saturday.
'Will you marry me tomorrow? 10-12:30 at 50W 23rd St NYC I'll be there waiting, wearing my wedding dress! Buy it for charity! #BridesForADay', the Celebrity Wife Swap participant announced to her followers through Twitter on Saturday.Our Wholesale Cheap New Sexy chiffon Flower One-shoulder Draped Evening Dresses Prom Dresses are feminine, sexy and sassy, ideal for every special occasion.

The dress was consistent with feminine sense of style
Carrie Underwood looked like a modern day flapper as she arrived at the 2014 Academy of Country Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 6 in Las Vegas, where the 31-year-old star rocked a stunning ensemble. The country crooner was a vision in her white embellished gown — and we loved the way it moved as she came down the carpet.
For the show Carrie selected an intricate gown by Oscar de la Renta. The sleeveless white dress was embellished with beaded fringe that looked just dazzling on the songstress, while she styled it with Jimmy Choo pumps and David Yurman jewelry. Diamond bracelets decorated her wrist, a white clutch, and rose quartz and diamond earrings polished off the ensemble while the star relied on her signature curls, which were worn to one side for the occasion.Dressestmall offer wide range of bridal gowns, wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, Wholesale Cheap Evening Dresses Online at price. Dramatic lashes added to the gorgeous look, as did her smokey, kohl-rimmed eyes. A nude glossy pout offset her dramatic eye makeup and kept her looking totally glam.
Carrie isn’t only presenting at the show, but she is up for two awards — and her look was perfect for the big night! While the dress was consistent with her feminine sense of style, it was also a bit more sophisticated and less frilly than we’re used to seeing on her — and she totally owned it! We love when stars take a risk on the red carpet, and in this instance it totally paid off.

Girl Who Shaved Head for Pal Is Back in School
In my junior year of high school I wore leggings to my AP Latin class. Leggings were against dress code at my school, as were sweatpants and skirts that were shorter than the ends of your fingertips. I had my leggings on under a dress, which admittedly probably didn’t pass the fingertip rule.
My female teacher admonished me in front of the class before sending me home to change.Dressestmall offer wide range of bridal gowns, wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, Wholesale Cheap Evening Dresses Online at price. She said something about how I wasn’t respecting myself. I ran home crying and changed into jeans.From chic daytime styles to gorgeous Discount Water melon Chiffon sheath one shoulder bridesmaid dresses party dress, make a fabulous entrance this festive season – no matter the dress code. When I returned, one of the older boys in my class made a rude comment as I sunk into my seat.
I broke school rules—as just about every other teenage girl in high school did when they got dressed in the morning—and probably deserved to be punished. But this time, my teacher, tired of reprimanding girls for dress code violations every day, had decided to make an example of me in front of the class. The result? I missed important test prep for my upcoming AP exam, and she gave some immature boys an excuse to make sexual remarks in a classroom setting. They weren’t punished. That teacher was walking the fine line between enforcing a dress code and slut shaming.
This week, a group of middle-school girls in Evanston, Illinois picketed their school for the right to wear leggings. The girls at Haven Middle School had been told, like I had, that leggings were “too distracting to boys” to wear to school, according to 13-year-old Sophie Hasty who was quoted in the Evanston Review. Hasty makes the sophisticated argument that “not being able to wear leggings because it’s ‘too distracting for boys’ is giving us the impression we should be guilty for what guys do.We have the largest collection of special occasion Discount Sexy Lace Sweetheart Beaded Crystal A-line Long Evening/Prom Dresses for immediate delivery.”
Five hundred students signed their petition, and a group of girls wearing leggings and yoga pants also banned protested outside the school last week with signs saying, “Are my pants lowering your test scores?”
