Knowing you the way we do, we’re surprised you are not looking for a daytime tiara for the occasion. That would never do, though. You’ll see many a covered head at the ceremony, most handmade and dyed to match the outfits, including bag and shoes. Since it is a springtime wedding, expect to see many brightly colored monochromatic outfits in the crowd of Euro royalty, military personnel, diplomats and friends of the prince and his fiancée. Since the Queen herself is partial to sorbet colors, we might see her wearing something fit more for an ice cream cone. Nevertheless, continue to take the high road of style.

It’s a daytime wedding, so it won’t be black tie. Men will be in Morning Coats (tails, with a vest), and likely top hats to cap the ensemble (which will be taken off in the church). For you, think a rather dressy luncheon at say, the White House. You should take the the good daytime jewels from the vault keeping in mind the crowds, so no over the top bedazzling is recommended. Your personality will sparkle enough, from what we’ve seen. You may want to consider wearing a luncheon dress or suit, not too bright, with a skirt not too short. White is not an option, obviously, because you will not want to compete with the bride. Along with your matching ensemble, go ahead and add a hat or a fascinator (see below), which is a small feathered or jeweled hairpiece attached to a clip or a comb.
