I would call this look “Kate Middleton goes to prep school.” The classic wool blazer, collared blouse, and A-line khaki skirt have a school-girl feel, but Kate often wears classic jackets and pretty blouses, and of course adding this hat, perched upon my head in a slight forward tilt, was done with Kate in mind. She has such a beautifully elegant style that is great for inspiration, but as you can tell I like to add my own “Clarisse” elements, such as my favorite polka-dot tights and a giant bow on the hat. Kate is also a great inspiration for spring- I can’t wait for a spring event to attend so I can steal ideas from her fabulous garden party looks!
