Kate The Great Slays Maternity Fashion For The Third Time

Instagram

Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come.

Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge (aka the lovely Kate) is now FINALLY on maternity leave to prepare for the birth of her third child.

While this news alone is causing me heart palpitations and I am gearing up for the moment Kensington Palace tweets that she's in labor so I can make a fresh cup of coffee and stay up all night with post notifications on my computer and phone, it also means something else.

We get to look back on ALL her pregnancy looks and pick the very best ones! From well-loved coats she brought back from her George and Charlotte pregnancies to fabulous new styles I never thought I would see Kate in, let's take a look back on Kate's top maternity looks from the Baby Cambridge #3 pregnancy.

October 2017: Temperley Lace

In her first official event since the pregnancy announcement and her subsequent Hyperemesis Gravidarum illness, Kate stunned in a light blue lace dress by Temperley London, one of her longtime favorite brands, for a reception at Buckingham Palace. The soft color paired with her brown locks and black accessories was a lovely ensemble all around.

November 2017: Dolce and Gabbana Beauty

In one of my absolute favorite Kate looks ever, she took my breath away for Remembrance Sunday this past November in a new Dolce & Gabbana coat and a previously worn Philip Treacy hat. Though we will never get shots of the whole look as the Duchess stands on a balcony overlooking the ceremony, this was enough for me to be wowed.

The way she wore her hair in a short curled bob was totally new, and the shiny large gold buttons on the coat were a beautiful contrast to the black. I've always adored this hat of hers, so I was happy to see it back in action. Everything was styled to perfection and she looked ever stunning.

November 2017: Royal Variety Ice Princess

Glittering in a Jenny Packham evening gown for the annual Royal Variety performance in November, Kate looked every inch the princess whilst greeting and watching different entertainers throughout the night (AHEM, LOUIS TOMLINSON). Even her Oscar de la Renta shoes sparkled!

And then, of course, here she is meeting my other favorite human in the world, Louis Tomlinson:

AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHH AGAIN!!!!!!! I WAS CRYING AND SWEATING WATCHING THE LIVE STREAM.

*tries to breathe to move to the next look*

Christmas 2017: Miu Miu Tartan

In another one of her best looks of ALL TIME, Christmas Day 2017 was a massive hit. Kate debuted a brand new stunning Miu Miu tartan coat and a gorgeous alpaca hat which she pulls off so flawlessly. The colors were perfect for a Christmas look, and I'll likely be repliKating the look myself for Christmas this year.

And we'll add this to the mix just because she's such a cutie.

January 2018: First Engagement Of The Scandinavian Tour

Looking cute and cozy for the first event of the Cambridge's Scandinavian tour, this casual look for the Duchess was perfect in its simplicity. She looked rosy-cheeked and super cute in the wool faux fur beanie. Since we don't often see Kate in casual clothes I definitely find them to be some of my favorites when we do! This would be the first of many show-stopping looks Kate served on this tour.

January 2018: Catherine Walker In Stockholm

Another freakin' stunner from Kate the next day was this gorgeous green Catherine Walker coat. Paired with the same alpaca hat worn on Christmas, Kate looked incredible when she and the Duke joined Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and her husband Prince Daniel for events in Stockholm.

January 2018: Another Catherine Walker Look In Stockholm

Bringing 1960s chic to 2018 Stockholm, Kate donned another Catherine Walker coat on day 2 of the royal tour. Carrying her gorgeous Chanel box handbag with the coat, Kate looked marvelous.

Under the dress was a simple, gorgeous bespoke Alexander McQueen dress which showed off her bump perfectly!

February 2018: Dazzling In Oslo

Kate. Wearing Alexander McQueen. At a dinner held by King Harald and Queen Sonja of Norway. SHIMMERED, GLITTERED, DAZZLED, AND FLOORED THE WHOLE WORLD IN THIS LOOK. Absolutely one of her top looks EVER. I nearly shed a tear because of how much I had been waiting for her to appear in a cape gown. LORD.

March 2018: Beauty In Beulah

Though this wasn't her final event before maternity leave, this is my final favorite look of the pregnancy. It is just GORGEOUS from head to toe. The coat was first seen during her pregnancy with Charlotte and I was hoping and praying it would make a comeback! It's by Beulah London.

The hat is a repeat accessory as well, by her frequented milliner Lock & Co. Put together, the simple elegance of the two pieces is just breathtaking. I love that her hair was worn down in her customary loose curls with such a wide-brim hat. Navy blue is such a fantastic color for Kate and she knows it.

Until the hospital doors swing open in April...

Thanks for another flawless pregnancy aesthetic, Kate! Can't wait for Baby Cambridge #3!

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

University of Kentucky

pointsincase.com

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

The struggles of having an RBF are all too real

1. People asking if you're mad at them.

2. Those people who hand out flyers don't always try to stop you.

3. Creepy guys telling you to smile.

4. "I thought you were a bitch when I first met you."

5. People telling you you'd be "so much prettier if you smiled."

6. Doing your makeup and looking great, which somehow intensifies the bitch face.

7. Regularly explaining "it's just my face."

We all go through certain stages when we have a crush, Tina just explains it better.

That moment that someone you never looked twice at suddenly makes you do a double take out of no where.

But you can't have a crush, that's outrageous. It's all in your head.

Because you don't have a crush, there's no reason to tell anyone about anything. Right?

But then they do something irresistible and you start to lose it.

Now accepting the fact you have a crush, you have to keep it under control.

Then there's the part where you tell your friends who will claim they called it.

They'll be excited and cheer you on. That's until they realize that your crush is all you'll be talking about.

Your obsession has become so bad, that your Facebook stalking is getting out of control.

But your friends will try and help move things along any way they can. That doesn't mean it will be any helpful though.

As time goes on, you start having fantasies about the two of you and it's starting to scare you a little.

You can't focus on anything because all your attention is on them and everything they do.

Anybody who comes near your crush is now an enemy, and you are willing to fight for your crush.

When you see them, you act like an idiot. Trying to hide your feelings may not be as discrete as you think.

Keeping your feelings inside will start to be harder and harder until you can't keep it inside anymore.

Who knows, maybe it will work out? Take a chance.

Everybody hurts sometimes.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

1. You feel like an elder.

2. You may feel lonely.

3. Senioritis is more real than ever.

4. You may feel a little down sometimes.

5. Fear of missing out won't be as real.

6. You are a college pro.

7. You'll have more free time.

8. You're happy you're still in school.

9. You feel like a guru.

10. You continue to grow.
