Pageant Wardrobe - Royal Inspiration

With my next pageant (Miss Cosmopolitan) just a week away, I've spent some time lately focusing on my pageant wardrobe. My favorite fashion inspiration? Kate Middleton! I absolutely adore her sense of style. I think that she finds a great balance between classic looks and fashion forward statements such as lace, beading, bright colors, and more. I am so excited to wear the new evening gown that I've chosen for local competitions this year. It is inspired by one of Kate's red carpet looks, and I feel like royalty when I wear it. Here is Kate's gown. I can't wait to look as regal as she does here when I take the stage!

Do you like Kate's sense of style? Who is your favorite style inspiration?

Love,
Sarah
