A Fresh Take on the Royal Wedding…


It’s nearly here – no, not just an extra day off work! The Royal Wedding is TOMORROW!!

As our business is all about bringing out the best in people’s beauty, the Royal Wedding is just too exciting for words! All those beautiful people to ogle all day! What a great way to get inspired. I’m too desperate to see how Kate is going to look on her big day and I know I’m not alone! Apart from the fact that all of us love a beautiful bride – this is one bride who’ll set the trend for years to come! Fresh have to always keep abreast of trends because we know there’ll be loads of budding princesses out there who’ll want to re-create Kate’ssuper stunning look.

Got me thinking anyway…how would Fresh style Kate for her big day? What hairstyles and make up will suit her? With her natural beauty and luscious locks she already makes a picture perfect bride and actually, her creamy English Rose skin and hazel eyes are a great canvas to work on. Let’s be honest, she’s not going to be too dramatic and I’m sure her style will be soft and sophisticated but if I was her, how would I want to be styled?

I think her hair is her crowning glory (pardon the pun!) Rumour has it she’s wearing the Queen George III tiara for her wedding. Stuffed full of the brightest, whitest most sparkly diamonds you don’t want your hair detracting from that incredible piece! So I’m hoping a smart chignon low at the nape of her head with the front sweeping across, perhaps. Elegant and oh so sophisticated, classic, timeless, smart! Alternatively, because her hair is so long and full, you could see her with half of it up at the front, soft, loose curls dancing around her shoulders, a more girly style but soft, not overdone – I guess up or down will depend on her choice of dress and that’s another subject altogether.





As for her make up, I think natural is best when it comes to today’s brides. She doesn’t want to be too made up and needs to look demure yet chic and stylish. She could play up her eyes with soft, smoky tones of grey and silver with a sweep of black liquid eyeliner (she really loves her black eyeliner!) plus lashings of mascara, to complete the look, wear a natural, silky taupe on her lips with a hint of gloss – let the eyes do the talking! Diana’s eyes (have to mention her somewhere) were always a talking point – Kate also has dramatic eyes. As an alternative she could use a very neutral palette of creams, browns and greens to bring out her rich hazel peepers, together with a nude lipstick and rosy glow on her cheeks, she will be the ultimate English Rose.

That’s my take on it – be interested to see how right I get it! Kate’s getting used to pulling poses in front of the photographers and the Paps, I guess she was born to do the job of the future Queen of England. Thousands of princesses out there want to recreate the looks of Kate Middleton and that’s something Fresh can help with, check out our portrait packages for some regal inspiration. Congratulations to Will’s and Kate...enjoy your spectacular day!

How would you style Kate’s hair and make up? Let us know your ideas!!
