We Love Pippa! Check Out Middleton s Latest Spot-On Look and Get It for Yourself

Pippa Middleton See All Photos Hello, Pippa Middleton! The 31-year-old stepped out for the launch of designer Tabitha Webb s first retail store in London last night looking oh-so-chic. Dressed in a brightly printed long sleeved Tabitha Webb dress—which you can buy on tabithawebb.com—Middleton mixed things up in a selection of black accessories including flat, buckled ankle boots, a wide snakeskin belt, and a studded Beauchamps of London clutch.
The look is certainly a switch-up from the sporty polo and denim shorts she was spotted wearing last month, and more in line with Middleton s signature flirty-meets-elegant personal style. With older sister Kate taking some time out due to her second pregnancy, Pippa has been tasked with satisfying our desire for Middleton sister style—and she certainly meets our needs!

Designer Jenny Packham s Glamorous #NYFW Collection was Inspired by a Particular 70 s Socialite

Jenny Packham British designer Jenny Packham s shimmery show at New York Fashion Week is making us want to get invited to a chic cocktail party, stat.  From one-shoulder gowns to silk kaftans and jumpsuits, the pieces were bursting with shimmery crystals, feathers and chic metallic glitter – all of which pay homage to the designer’s main source of inspiration – 70’s socialite Bianca Jagger. “It’s eclectic, and slightly more playful,” Packham tells InStyle.com of the show. “We’ve put a lot more textures in—we’ve got satin, we’ve got some quite heavy beading, we’ve got shimmery beading, a little bit of everything.”
Just like Jagger herself, the pieces are elegant, decadent and effortless. “The [Jenny Packham woman] has integrity and wit,” Packham says. “I like the challenge of dressing ladies in lots of different things. With an evening wear collection, each piece has to be quite individual.”

Individual, it was – a juxtaposition of the carefree era of the 70’s with the structure of tailored pieces in bluebird blues, soft caramel and her favorite color, “wild cherry.”
One of our favorite aspect of the collection? The fact that nearly anyone can wear it. “I think it’s been nice in the last year, we’ve been dressing all different ages; we’ve got Helen Mirren who’s 68, then we’ve got Anna Kendrick. I like the challenge of dressing women in all sorts of different things. I think the eveningwear the criteria is that they want to walk into the room and get that ‘wow’ factor.”
While our eyes were glued to the runway during the show, Packham was also making a statement on the other side of the pond, as Kate Middleton was simultaneously stepping out in an off-the-shoulder navy blue tulle dress with a velvet belt by the designer (that the Duchess had worn three months earlier].
Since Packham is clearly no stranger to celebrity dressing, which Hollywood starlet would she love to dress next? “I met Cate Blanchett the other night; I would so love to dress her, so I told her that! She was lovely, she’s quite shy in a way, she’s strong woman but at the same time reserved.”
