Royal Watch: A BBQ for Youth and a 3rd Outfit

Last night, William and Kate wrapped up their first day in Canada at a BBQ celebrating Canadian youth. The event took place at Rideau Hall-- 120 carefully selected young Canadians were given the opportunity to meet the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

When the couple first walked in, everyone went silent`-- William graciously commented "talk among yourselves," as he and Catherine began to make small talk with the crowd.

The couple decided to dress down for the BBQ. Will wore a blue collared shirt and khakis and Kate opted for a casual wrap dress by one of her favorite London based designers, Issa. The black dress was decorated with little white birds. She completed her casual look with a pair of black wedges by Nine West.

You might be thinking this dress looks familiar.

The night before the Royal wedding, Kate was photographed wearing this Issa dress as she entered the Goring Hotel. The recycling of dresses is all part of an image Kate is trying to create. She want`s us to think she is just like us, she does her own hair, makeup, and is not excessive, hence the recycling of clothing.

Only she is different from the common woman because she is a real life Princess who is married to the future King of England.

I have an idea that would be great for fashion lovers! Since she can absolutely afford to never recycle an outfit again, why not just donate all of her worn clothing to charity? We get more fashion and her worn clothing would sell for thousands above the retail price. Win win situation, right?
