The Royal Wedding: Verdict

Well, the build up was immense and I think the hype reached fever pitch once Kate Middleton arrived at Westminster Abbey, but what did you think of the ceremony?

I loved it, got a bit bored with some of the readings in the middle, but enjoyed the little side glances William and Kate kept giving each other.

As for the little slip up with the wedding ring not going on, well I doubt anyone noticed it really... apart from around 2 billion on Twitter.

That just made them all the more adorable for me and apparently Wills told Kate she looked beautiful when she reached him at the alter. Aww!

Harry also is reported to have said to Wills 'Wait till you see her!' which just shows how close they all are.

Now we're approaching the end of the cermony, they are offically man and wife and I am exhausted! I'm off to pop the champers now and will be back reporting in a bit!

Prince's William & Harry arrive!

Hurray! The Prince's are en route and look so happy! Waving to all the crowds and both in military uniform- seriously looking hot!

If they are nervous, they aren't showing it and the crowds are going absolutely wild for them.

And they arrive...

The Royal Wedding: My Coverage

Good morning early risers! I'm currently juggling making finger sandwiches and scones with blogging, tweeting and following the BBC coverage.

So far I have noted...

- Fearne Cotton looking lovely in a polka dot dress and fitted beige jacket, complete with uber blonde hair and wavy locks.

- Women with very large hats entering the Abbey... I can't wait to see Victoria Beckham!

- Huw Edwards speaking awkwardly about what Kate will be wearing- not really his thing!

- I may well cry... I'm feeling bizarrely emotional today seeing the scale of everything! The Mall is totally packed with people. IT WILL BE EPIC

- This is already old news, but if you don't know- Once married William will become Duke of Cambridge and Kate Duchess of Cambridge. I'm gutted for Kate, Princess Catherine had a nice ring to it!

Till later! Serena xx

Royal Wedding Fever!

Prince William and Kate Middleton: Awww!
I don’t know about you, but I officially have Royal Wedding fever. I’m giddy, smiley and generally happy for a couple I have never met and probably in all likelihood will never meet in my life and yet, I’m still positively brimming with anticipation for tomorrow!

I’m not the only one either. People all over the world are feeling exactly the same as me right now. Impromptu street parties, afternoon tea being served in an almost regal way and a general sense of occasion has got us all in a frenzy.

No-one does a Royal Wedding quite like us, and what’s so amazing is how everyone in the country has got on board with this and vowed to celebrate, despite the tax bill!

There is literally not a soul I know that isn’t doing something for the big day. A Bank Holiday proclaimed in their honour has definitely got people feeling good and despite everything else going on, for one day, everyone will be totally fixated on two people getting married.

Me personally, I’ll be fixated on the dress- as will many other Fashion Eds around the world. It will be a mad rush to see who tweets the designer’s name first, which quite frankly I find hilarious.

I will of course be tweeting and blogging my way through the ceremony with a cup of tea in one hand and a scone in another. And then I’ll be giving you a right Royal round-up on Dress Me Daisy next week, so all in all, I have a pretty busy time ahead of me.

Till tomorrow my Royal followers…

Prince William to go Military chic on big day!

While the whole world is still on tenterhooks as to what Kate Middleton will be wearing for her wedding, Prince William it seems, is all sorted!

He will apparently be kitted out in the finest military attire, made by Saville Row's Gieves & Hawkes if reports are to be believed.

Although Wills could wear a suit for his big day, it's expected he will follow tradition in his military uniform- with his RAF uniform the most likely to be selected.

Ooh I do love a man in uniform and I expect Kate will too! At least this takes the fashion limelight off her for a bit, before the media circus starts again.

I cannot wait for their big day- purely for the dress; it will either be a total triumph or fall short of such high expectations.

Considering this is Kate we're talking about and she can pull off a see-through dress, I expect she'll be just fine...

Monday Fashion Alert

Katie debuts a new look on X Factor: Copyright ITV
Katie is still in X Factor: It seems image really is everything and let's be honest, she had nothing left to lose by changing her style yet again. A short boyish crop and an array of baby doll dresses certainly says: "I'm sweet, innocent and defenceless- please don't vote me out." Call me cynical, but it definitely worked this weekend.

Gillian fainting on I'm a Celeb: I don't know about you but I couldn't stop laughing, which under the circumstances means I'm either a very mean person OR Gillian has irked me and millions of others beyond belief. I'll go with the latter, if only because she clearly has a thing for medic Bob and wears indecently small shorts. Ew.

Get Kate's ring on QVC Less than a week since the Royal engagement was announced and QVC have already made a replica of Kate's engagement ring. Fast work, I'm sure you'll agree! "The Princess Simulated Sapphire Ring" by Kenneth Jay Lane is available for a mere $39.54. Shame Wills didn't think ahead, he could've saved himself a fortune!

Olivia Palermo to get own TV show: Yes, she with the incredible glossy hair has managed to land herself a new gig after The City was axed. “I’m currently working on a TV project, my own show," she announced via Elle.com Ooo secretive much?!

Forget the ring, what will Kate wear on the big day?!

So, unless you live on Mars you'll be well aware that Prince William and Kate Middleton have announced they are to marry early next year.

Hurrah! I personally feel like I've been waiting for this news forever, and so do most of the world's media, if the headlines are anything to go by.

What I'm most interested in though is who Kate will choose to wear on the big day, and will she cover up or flash a bit of flesh?

This could well be the biggest fashion event of the spring next year, so she'll have to get it right.

Rumours of British designers have already been thrown into the ring- a mere 12 hours after the news was announced and people are already taking bets; it's THAT big a deal.

Fashion experts have predicted a couture dress, complete with a high neck, that should both be demure, yet stylish. Eek! The girl is in her twenties, give her a strapless fairytale gown if she wants!

Check out Brides.com for some amazing sketches by wedding designers, showing their vision for Kate. Not a high neck in sight. Phew.
