Maternity Fashion for a Princess (Princess Kate, That is)

So it’s official: Prince William popped the question and placed the late Princess Diana’s engagement ring onto long-time girlfriend Kate Middleton’s finger. So it only begs the question: When will the next royal heir be born?

We may be jumping the gun (okay we are jumping the gun), but we just can’t help but think that Princess Catherine Middleton will most likely be the most stylish pregnant princess that ever was.

Let’s take a look at Kate’s signature style pieces and turn them into maternity fashion suggestions. (See, now you can say that Kate was copying your maternity style):

Kate Middleton’s Signature Style #1: Tailored Coats

When Kate’s belly one day starts to pop, she can still find cute maternity coats like this one from Isabella Oliver, $359: (Check out our Top 10 Affordable Maternity Coats.)

Kate Middleton’s Signature Style #2: Wrap Dresses

Lucky for Kate, wrap dresses are a great maternity choice, and an even more perfect breastfeeding must-have, like this one from GAP Maternity ($64.50): (See the perfect wrap shirt here, and more wrap dresses and breastfeeding-friendly clothes here.)

Kate Middleton’s Signature Style #3: Bold prints

Which is why we think Kate would love this brightly patterned maternity dress by Moody Mamas, $186:

Kate Middleton’s Signature Style #4: Elegant gowns

Don’t worry, Kate; there are plenty of maternity gowns elegant enough for a formal gala, like this Heidi Klum dress at A Pea in A Pod, $149:

And if she still wants a splash of her signature color, Moody Mamas has a gorgeous fuschia chiffon dress for $169:

Kate Middleton’s Signature Look #5: Dark Wash Denim

We’re not so sure a princess will go for jeggings — but think the royal family will approve of treggings? (Find out more about the new trend here.):
