Kate’s first outfit, an off-white REISS dress (the same one she wore in the couple’s official engagement photos), a patriotic maple leaf brooch borrowed from Queen Elizabeth (presented to her by the Queen mom when she first visited Canada in 1939), and a crimson red maple leaf fascinator by Sylvia Fletcher at Lock and Co. Normally we’d consider her bright red pumps matchy-matchy, but worn in the Nation’s capital on Canada Day – they’re the perfect finishing touch.
Moving from Ottawa to Yellowknife, Canada, Will and Kate joined the locals in a street hockey game. Her linen dress is by Danish-born British high street designer Malene Birger. Catherine opted to stay on the sidelines and cheer for the Duke, reportedly explaining that if not for her nude L.K. Bennett heels, she would have joined in the game herself. She had me at nude heels…
Lastly, her Highness wore a navy lace dress called “the Cecile dress” designed by Erdem. The dress can be found in their pre-spring 2012 collection. Kate paired her stunning navy lace dress with her L.K.Bennett Sledge2 patent nude pumps. Her style is so classic, and so-spot-on PRINCESS PERFECT!

Vancouver is one of my favourite cities in Canada. Boston is one of the favorite cities in the US. But true to my Canadian roots, I’m cheering for the Canucks in tonight’s Stanley Cup final. Hockey is by far one of Canada’s proudest past-times, compared to the three majors in the US (baseball, football and basketball) where the puck just doesn’t garner the same attention. We’re reminded of this every time Canada and the US face each other in the winter Olympics (last year I had the pleasure of watching the final game in a sports bar in Manhattan Beach, California – with one other Canadian – let’s just say our cheers weren’t popular…). Americans are as competitive as Canadians are nice, but a win tonight just doesn’t mean the same to those South of the border.
Some Canadian celebrities who might be joining Kim Cattrall‘s patriotic cheers (those in red are from Vancouver) are: Justin Bieber, Rachel McAdams, Michael J. Fox, Wayne Gretzky, Mike Meyers, Ryan Reynolds, Jim Carrey, Avril Lavine, Sarah McLachlan, Alanis Morissette, Celion Dion, Ellen Page (Juno), Emmanuelle Chriqui (Sloan McQuewick on “Entourage”), Hayden Christensen, Howie Mandel, Jessica Lowndes (Adriana Tate Duncan on “90210″), Keanu Reeves, Kelly Rowan (Kirsten Cowan from “The OC”), Michael Buble, Nelly Furtado, Neve Campbell, Pamela Anderson, Ryan Gosling, Scott Speedman (Ben from “Felicity”), Sandra Oh (Christina Yang on “Grey’s Anatomy”, and from “Sideways”), Shania Twain, Shenae Grimes (Annie Wilson on “90210″), Eric McCormack (Will from “Will & Grace”), Jason Priestley, Seth Rogen, Eric Lindros (NHL), and Steve Nash (NBA).
